Guidelines for Working with Rational RequisitePro
When working with the Synchronizer, make sure that you follow these
guidelines:
➤ Record creation will fail during synchronization if you use the following
characters when naming a requirement in Quality Center, or when naming
a project, package, or requirement in RequisitePro: \ ^ * “ : ‘
➤ For synchronization with a RequisitePro project located on a network drive,
the user configured to log on as a service for the Synchronizer must have
permissions to access the network location.
➤ In Quality Center, if you want to move a requirement and make it a child of
another requirement, make sure that you move it under a requirement of
the same type. This is required because RequisitePro does not allow you to
place a requirement of one type under a requirement of another type.
➤ RequisitePro Real, Time, and Userlist type fields are defined as String type in
Synchronizer field mappings.
