# Create a New Static Requirement File

Before creating a new requirement file you should have available a requirements document that outlines the properties and design options for the new file.

1. In the File menu, click New.
2. In the New File dialog box, select Expere Requirement Files and then select Static Requirement from the list of available options.
3. In the New File dialog box, click Open.
   The Document Properties dialog box opens.
4. Complete the file by filling in the text boxes with information from the requirements document. For details, refer to Document Properties
   A static requirement file document must have a Document ID and XTemplate defined in order to create the file.
   Important: Please do not use Document List when authoring Static documents. It’s available today as an option, but it is not supported and will be removed in the future.
   Note:
   - You are able to select Document List on a Dynamic document. The dynamic document will present any Static or Dynamic document name in the list per the request.
   - Selecting eSignature Document indicates the document is an eSignature document.
5. Click OK.
   The static requirement file is opened in the Requirements Editor in the Outline Editor view as NewFileNN.req.
6. In the Requirements Editor, save the file by clicking File > Save. The best practice is to use the form name as the REQ file name; the target file name will, most likely, be defined in the requirements.

The static requirement file is saved and available for authoring.
