Description.
Select the data
Type of the new property from the
Type list. See the
Custom Attribute and Requirement Property Types topic for descriptions of each type of attribute.
Optionally check the
Required check box. Required custom properties must be set when creating a new requirement. On the
New Requirement dialog, required properties that are not yet set display with an orange background and a red border.
Note: Existing requirements are not affected. But when you edit existing requirements, newly created required custom properties
must be set as well to be able to save the requirement.
Note: Child requirements do not inherit required properties. If desired, these must be set explicitly for child requirements as
well.
Click
OK.
Your custom property is available to all requirements in the active project.
