"Dependencies" is a type of relationship between two files as shown below in Figure 64. An "affecting" file is the master file, an "affected" one a dependent file. When an affecting file has been edited, the user will be reminded by red flags to check all affected files whether they need to be updated, too.

By clicking on the menu item, the dependency form will appear and will allow the user to view the dependencies of the file or to remove them.

Note: The document version changes when a document dependency relationship is created/deleted.

  • Paste file as affected: Attaches the latest copied file as an affected data file. This means that the pasted file is dependent on the current document.
  • Paste file as affecting: Attaches the latest copied file as an affecting data file. This means that the current file is dependent on the pasted file.
  • Red Flags: Red flags are notifications to the user to check a file that may be impacted by a change done to an affecting file. When a file that is affecting other files is checked in, the dependent files are assigned red flags (see Figure 65). Subsequent changes to the affecting file will result for each affected file in one red flag per version or release that was checked in.

Subdomain root as parent

The icon follows the parent breakdown element name.

Subdomain root as child
Image Modified

The same icon is used when the breakdown element that is a subdomain is listed as a child of its parent breakdown element.

Image Modified

When the breakdown pane shows a baseline, the yellow lock is assigned to the parent breakdown element that is the root of the baseline branch. The lock icon is chosen to show that baselines can only be accessed for reading, not for writing.

Data files may be assigned the following icons:


Image Modified

Data file icons indicate the type of data file.
Revision and version ids follow the data file title.
The lock icon indicates that the file is checked out.
The red flag icon shows that a file that this file is dependent on has been updated. 

Image Modified

The blue circle indicates the number of sticky notes for the data file.
