About Dynamic Document Structure

A typical dynamic requirements file resembles the following structure.

The Document element is positioned inside the InstanceDocumentRef element which is nested with the overall instance structure of the requirements file. The Document element contains document content and allows a number of attributes and child elements to support authoring.

The following attributes are available on the element. To view available attributes, select the element and right-click. In the shortcut menu, select Add Attributes.

The Document element typically contains the following children.

  • Tagline
  • Note (the Note element must be added, it is not a default element of the Document node)
  • Metadata
  • Prolog
  • Body (comprising sections)
