Introduction
Rational DOORS Next Generation application, which is delivered in Jazz CLM tools by IBM, supports extending its base features by specially developed programming units conformed to OpenSocial specification.
FMEA extension developed by Softacus AG can give you important capabilities if you work with Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA). A successful FMEA activity helps identify potential failure modes based on experience with similar products and processes.
User interface
1.) FMEA Analysis on Mini Dashboard
2.) FMEA Sample Project Showcase
Explanation and features
The main features of the FMEA extension are:
- Calculating Risikozahl Type based on such input data as the extent of damage, length of stay in the danger zone, probability of occurrence, and the possibility of avoiding the danger.
- Painting colors based on calculated values in accordance with the next scale:
3.) Risk level colors
- Supported work in modules
Limitations:
- Works in Module
- The cells are colored after 0.5 seconds delay due to technical reasons of Jazz. The color will not appear if your jazz is slow. We can fix it by increasing 0.5 seconds to 5 seconds.
Known Problems:
-
If an artifact in DNG Module is selected the color will now be showing. The reason for that is that IBM implemented rosa color for highlighted requirements. As soon as you deselect the requirement desired color appears. Reload will also make the color appear.
The gadget must be open at least once after the user started his Web browser's session.
