Scenario 1: Requirements flow from Focal Point to DOORS
Business Engineering
Collects requirements from customers.
Validates and requests cost estimation.
Requirements appear in a ”DOORS view” and gets synchronized to a DOORS module
Analyzes and estimates the cost.
Enters a cost value in the DOORS attribute.
Sets status to ”Analyzed”
The estimate is used with prioritizations to plan release content.
Status indicates when ready to implement
Progress is monitored via implementation status attribute
Development starts
Progress is reported via implementation status attribute

Prioritization of requirements in DOORS
Do you have more requirements than time and resources to implement?
Do you need to optimize stakeholder value while reducing cost of development?
Focal Point has unique mechanisms for prioritizing the requirements and visualize the results in a number of charts
Leverage your investment in DOORS with the unique decision support features of Focal Point
IBM Software Group | Rational software
Scenario 2: Prioritization of requirements
In DOORS In Focal Point
Select requirements that shall be prioritized
Set ”To be prioritized” to True
Log in and prioritize the elements
Select ”Rank the elements” to store priority rank in an attribute.
The ranking attribute(s) appear on the DOORS side and can be used for filtering, sorting etc.
