Editing a duplicated requirement specification structure
The following rules apply to editing a structure duplicate:
- The user who executes the File→Duplicate command to create the duplicate, owns the duplicate structure.
- Any elements of the original structure that were referenced rather than copied to the duplicate remain owned by their original owner.
- Access rights and ACL rules on structure lines are not carried forward from the original structure to the duplicate.
- You can edit any of the items, item revisions, datasets, and attachments to which you have permissions in the duplicated structure, without affecting the original structure.
