Does JRS require directional labels on a custom link to allow joins from both directions?
I have defined a custom link type in DOORS Next 5.0.2 which does not have separate directional labels (only has the one label for both directions). When I try to join the two artifacts in the JRS Report Builder using "Traceability Links", I only get data back when I approach the join from one direction. When I try to drive the report from the other direction, I get no data back.
By contrast, if I try the same thing with artifacts linked together with a custom link type that has separate directional labels, I can drive the report from both sides, using the appropriate directional label.
Is this a known issue/limitation in JRS or is there something else going on with my configuration? I will play around some more in a sandbox to see if I can validate, but was wondering if anyone had run across this.
Thanks,
Robert
