View the Requirements Hierarchy

The requirements hierarchy lets you quickly identify which requirements have been associated as parent and child. The list shows in order by parent with the children below the parent.

Follow these steps:

1. Display the requirements list page.
2. In the View field, select Requirements Hierarchy.

From this list, you can perform the following tasks:

• Click in a field to update values in-line. The field activates if the value can be updated.
• Right-click on a requirement to see a menu that allows you to view, edit, delete, expand, or collapse the requirement.

A gray arrow indicates a collapsed hierarchy with the children hidden. A black arrow indicates an expanded parent with the children listed. In the following illustration, the expanded hierarchy has four levels. You can create an unlimited number of levels in a hierarchy.
