Deleting requirement documents

Only delete requirement documents if they are not needed. If you want to keep a record of the document without deleting it, you may be able to add a workflow event to close it. See Adding workflow events to items.

Deleting documents also deletes any snapshots created from the documents.

1. In the Requirement Documents list, click next to the document and choose Delete.

You are prompted to delete the requirements included in the selected documents. Requirements cannot be deleted if:

• They are locked for editing by another user.
• They are included in current versions of other documents (shared).
• Historical versions of the requirements are included in snapshots created from other documents.
• They are in a public folder that you do not have permission to modify or is locked, or in a private folder that is locked.

2. Confirm the deletion.

• Click Delete All to delete the selected document, requirements included in the document, and snapshots.
• Click Delete Documents Only to only delete the selected document and snapshots.
