Duplicate Requirements in RQM 2.0 and RQM 4.0 has different behaviour ?

Hi, 

  I have exported the requirement  (Req -1)  using Excel Importer Addin  in RQM 2.0 using the following cfg: --

requirement.dc:title=A
requirement.dc:description=B

The same  cfg  contents and  same  Req -1  if  I try  to  export in RQM again it does not export because it looks as duplicate requirement should not added. 

But  in the  RQM 4.0  which comes in CLM the  same  Req-1  is  getting exported twice.  Does  RQM 4.0 checks  for  duplicate requirement ?  If  yes then  on which  property it  checks ? 

How the duplicate Requirement gets handled  in RQM 2.0 and RQM 4.0 ?

Thanks-

Chandan

Nearly everything about the internal handling of requirements has changed between RQM 2.0 and RQM 4.0.  

You'd be best to start with https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/RQMExcelWordImporter with special attention to the requirement-specific updates.

If you could include description of the spreadsheet and the .cfg file here, it might be possible to provide more detail.

I have requirements in Column A and its description in Column B in the excel sheet. Now i export the Requirements using the ExcelImporter Addins.
First time the Req-1 got exported with the description.

Now Second time I use the same excel sheet and cfg file then again Req-1 got exported and in RQM 4.0 it shows two requirements in UI.

But the samething in RQM 2.0 it does not export and in the UI only first requirement Req-1 is present.

The CFG file is:- requirement.XLSStartRow=8 requirement.XLSArtifactID=A requirement.dc:title=A requirement.dc:description=B

requirement.XLSWorksheetID="Req_Sheet"

What i want to know the RQM 2.0 it handle duplicate requirements but why not it is handling in RQM 4.0 ?
