(Module: Modules as requirement specifications) At the end of this lab you will be able to: ► Reuse an artifact in multiple modules Given ► Automated Meter Reader (Water) project (AMR) Description ► A requirement exists: “Any portable equipment shall be yellow.”. This requirement has been used in the Stakeholder requirements specification. You want to reuse this requirement in the system requirements documents for the portable equipment in the AMR project. So you are reusing the requirement in the Handheld device of the AMR. Exercise tasks In this exercise, you complete these tasks: ► Task 1: Add an artifact to a module

Objectives
At the end of this lab you will be able to:
► Reuse an artifact in multiple modules
Given
► Automated Meter Reader (Water) project (AMR)
Description
► A requirement exists: “Any portable equipment shall be yellow.”. This requirement has been used in the
Stakeholder requirements specification. You want to reuse this requirement in the system requirements
documents for the portable equipment in the AMR project. So you are reusing the requirement in the
Handheld device of the AMR.

Task 1: Add an artifact to a module
1. You are in the lab environment All Projects page of the RM application (https://jazz-
server:9443/rm/web). You are logged in as bob with password bob.
2. Navigate to the Automated Meter Reader (Water) project Artifact page.
3. Navigate to the 01 Requirements folder.
4. Open the AMR System Requirements Specification artifact.
5. Modify the display of the module content, by displaying the Used in Module attribute in a column. The
flowing steps provide some guidance on how to do this:
a. Click the Change Column Display setting icon in the upper-right corner.
b. In the window that opens, select Used in Modules from the list, click Add, and then click OK.
Figure 1: The Used in Modules attribute is set to be displayed in the third column
c. Click OK
6. In section 3.2, after the image of the handheld device, add the existing requirement, “Any portable equipment
shall be yellow” requirement:
a. From the edit properties of the picture artifact, select Add Existing Artifact > After
b. In the “Add to module” window, search for yellow. From the list of results, select the artifact, and then
click Add and Close.
Figure 2: The requirement is reused in the module
7. Hover over the symbol in the Used In Module column to see which modules this artifacts is used in.
