How to clone a OneView Document along with corresponding Requirements Document from another Project

Overview

When you create a OneView Document by cloning an existing OneView Document from another template project, the Requirements Document(s) linked to the Queried sections of the source OneView do not get cloned. As a result, the Queried sections of the cloned OneView still bring data from Requirements Document(s) linked to the source OneView.

If you want to link the Requirements sections of the cloned OneView Document to a new Requirements Document that is similar to the Requirements Document linked to the source OneView, you will first have to clone the source Requirements Document to your working project. Thereafter, change the configuration of the cloned OneView sections to link it to the newly cloned Requirements Document.

This article explains the steps to be performed to clone a OneView Document and its corresponding Requirements Document(s) so that the sections of the cloned OneView link to the corresponding cloned Requirements Document(s).

The data of the Requirements sections in the OneView Document Template is coming from the Requirements Specification Template.

Now, let’s clone these documents.

Step 1. Clone Requirements Document from template Project to your working project

Refer to the article How to clone a Requirements Document.

Step 2. Clone OneView Document from template Project to your working project

Refer to the article How to clone a OneView Document.

Step 3. Open the cloned OneView Document in the destination project i.e. your working project

NOTE: This step will appear only if the record type is Requirements Documents.

Step 7. Select Parent record(s) from where you want to query records

By default, this page will show that option as selected which was chosen while adding this Queried section in the source OneView Document.

Step 7a. Query requirements from all Parent records

If the first option was chosen i.e. Query requirements from all Parent records, then this option is shown as selected and will query requirements from all Parent records.

Step 7b. Query requirements that are under a Parent record

If the second option was chosen i.e. Query requirements that are under a Parent record, then this option is shown as selected and you will have to select a Parent record whose requirements you want to query.

Step 8. Follow the wizard by specifying required options until you reach the last page, click Finish

Step 9. To query records from the cloned Requirements Document to each remaining Queried section(s) in the cloned OneView Document, repeat steps from numbers “4” to “8”

You have completed the process of cloning a OneView Document along with corresponding Requirements Document from another template project.
