System Definition Management¶

System Definition manages hierarchical system elements that become the backbone for traceability and architecture mapping.

What You Can Do¶

• Create and maintain system elements.
• Reorder and move elements in hierarchy.
• Import and export structure data.
• Export Draw.io-compatible output for structural visualization.

Typical Workflow¶

1. Start from root-level system elements.
2. Build child levels to the needed granularity.
3. Use reorder and move actions to maintain clean hierarchy.
4. Import updates from curated spreadsheets when needed.
5. Export to Draw.io for external visualization or review.

Key Pages¶

• System element list and detail.
• Create, update, delete.
• Reorder and move operations.
• Import and Draw.io export actions.

Practical Tips¶

• Stabilize element hierarchy before large requirement link imports.
• Avoid duplicate naming under the same parent to reduce confusion in later mappings.
• Re-run downstream coverage and quality checks after major structure changes.
