PTR Editor

The PTR Editor view windows provides an editing view for product technical rules (PTRs) contained within a dynamic or static requirements files. Authors may edit business logic and technical rules as well as navigate to specific locations in the files where the condition is used. The view also presents options to view and edit the output format, GDD name, and Public name along with changing the formatting of the PTR within the Outline Editor.
Note:
  • The PTR Editor must be populated with business logic and PTR to enable editing.
  • If the rule comes from a content reference, then Output Format, GDD Name and Public Name, as well as the PTR and business logic, are read only.
The view window is available by clicking the PTR Editor option in the View > Other Windows menu and also through the standard toolbar in the Other Windows list. The view is available for dynamic and static requirements files and is available from the Outline Editor perspective when a field is selected. This is an example of the PTR Editor when a Condition is active n a dynamic requirements file.
