Session 1.6: Requirements Verification Tool

Note: This training deck is primarily composed of instructional screenshots (numbered dialog boxes, toolbar callouts, field highlights). The text below preserves all extractable slide text — titles, bullet points, discussion/exercise headings, and table content. Where a slide is dominated by an unlabeled screenshot, only the caption and step-list text could be extracted; screenshot visual detail itself is not represented.

Session 1.6: Requirements Verification Tool

DISCUSSION 1.6.1 REQUIREMENTS VERIFICATION TOOL THEORY

The Requirements Verification Tool is used to import requirements information from a spreadsheet which is then used to be associated to model items and undergo verification.

The requirements can be in based on different categories and classifications such as Functional, Operational, Performance, Allocated, Derived etc.

The spreadsheet will have a structured format with the following headers:

   Requirement ID*
   Requirement Name*
   DID No.
   DID Title
   Requirement Classification
   Requirement Description
   Prerequisite

Session 1.6: Requirements Verification Tool

EXERCISE 1.6.2 ACCESSING REQUIREMENTS VERIFICATION TOOL

To access the Requirements Verification Tool, select Modeling and then Requirements. Alternatively, right click on the system and select Requirements
