SysML Requirements in Enterprise Architect
"SysML Requirements on Excel" is a new MDG Office Integration feature that allows users to author SysML requirements using Excel. Users can seamlessly integrate SysML requirements between MS Excel and Enterprise Architect.
Key features
- Import and export SysML requirements data from Excel into Enterprise Architect.
- Ability to create SysML Compliant requirements with inter-dependencies
SysML Requirements in Enterprise Architect
Using the “SysML Requirements on Excel” menu, users can connect an Enterprise Architect Model with an Excel spreadsheet.
This will create an Excel Document with required templates to let users create SysML requirements. This will also copy any existing Enterprise Architect requirements and the derived relationships to the Excel spreadsheet, to let users update or modify these contents.
Working with Excel to author Requirements
The Excel template for SysML requirements authoring will have two spreadsheets,
- Requirements – The requirements sheet is used to create and update SysML compliant requirements, including Id and text, the sheet also displays any derived requirements (interconnected requirement)
The Requirement Sheet has two parts: "SysML Requirements" and "Derived SysML Requirements".
SysML Requirements – It contains Name, Notes, Status, Version and Id, Text (Mandatory tags for SysML)
Derived SysML Requirements – It also contains Name, Notes, Status, Version of Derived Requirement for each SysML requirement. This part is completely non-editable.
- Requirement Matrix – This worksheet will present all requirements in a matrix format to let users easily create derivation inter-dependencies between them.
- This sheet will be automatically updated when new requirements are added in the ‘Requirements’ worksheet
- New relationships created in this spreadsheet will also be automatically updated in the ‘Requirements’ worksheet
Insert Elements and Connectors
Insert the element in the Name Column of the Requirement Sheet (with Notes, Status, Version, ID, and text, but the Name column is mandatory). And create a connector between the newly created element and the existing element in the ‘Requirement Matrix’ sheet.
Newly created connector details are updated in the ‘Requirement’ sheet.
To sync or update the modifications to the Enterprise Architect Model, use the Excel to EA icon. The changes reflected in the Enterprise Architect Model will be shown in the preview form. To update into an Enterprise Architect Model, select Export.
New elements are created under the chosen package.
The EA to Excel icon is used to restore the produced items to their original state as in the Enterprise Architect Model.
