how to update existing document?
I am using RRC 4.0 and have uploaded a word document as my design document in the form of artifact. I have created some hyperlinks within this document linking my other artifacts(requirements/use cases) to particular sections within the document.
Now my design document is evolved to next version during design review. I want to upload the new version by updating the existing design document in RRC.
I want the artifact ID for the design document to remain the same and update should not create a new artifact.
Is it possible to update the design document artifact with the latest version of word document? If yes, how should I update it? Do I need to import it again with the help of impoart wizard?
Will it keep the already created hyperlinks within the document if the previous sections(titles) are intact in new version?
One answer
If that's what you are talking about, but you think that's too hidden, please let me know (or open an enhancement) and we can look at making that more obvious.
As far as the links in the Word document, I don't understand this: "I have created some hyperlinks within this document linking my other artifacts(requirements/use cases) to particular sections within the document." It's not possible to link to or from specific parts of the Word document to other RRC artifacts, so I'm not sure what you mean.
You can convert the Word document to an RRC text artifact, which would then allow you to link to and from specific sections of the artifact. However, once you've done that, you aren't able to upload and convert again into the same artifact. If that's what you're talking about, then it sounds like you're looking for some sort of offline editing/round-trip support using Word. That would be an enhancement request.
