  3. Define the report:

    1. Select a default format (HTML, PDF, WORD, or XLS).

    2. Select the location of the items you want to include.

    Note

    You must choose a container of items to analyze for upstream and downstream traceability. The report doesn't work on single items.

  4. (Optional) Select Email me the report to receive it by email.

  5. Select Run Report.

The report displays all items that have relationships from the selected location. Both downstream and upstream relationships are displayed for each item. The report also indicates whether any related artifacts are marked as suspect: T = True (suspect), F = False (not suspect).
