Creating Requirement Type Mappings - HP Quality Center Synchronizer 1.2 User Manual

Creating Requirement Type Mappings

When synchronizing requirements, you create mappings between
requirement types in each endpoint. For example, you might map the
Functional requirement type in Quality Center to the Functional requirement
type in RequisitePro.
Consider the following points when creating requirement type mappings:
➤ Each requirement type in an endpoint can be mapped only once to a
requirement type in the other endpoint. Records for requirement types that
are not mapped are not synchronized.
➤ For each requirement type mapping, new requirements created in one
endpoint only are synchronized. For more information, see "Setting Event
Options for Requirements Synchronization" on page 63.
➤ Folders are automatically mapped if they contain a requirement type that is
mapped. They cannot be configured.
For more information on synchronizing requirements between
Quality Center and another endpoint, refer to the appropriate appendix for
that endpoint.
To create requirement type mappings for a link:
1 Verify that you are working in edit mode. For more information, see
"Editing Synchronization Link Settings" on page 99.
