Intland Retina 3.2
Now Available!

DOORS and ReqIF support

To accommodate workflows relying on the legacy tools used in automotive, pharma, industrial automation, and other industries, Intland Retina 3.2 brings updated data import from IBM® Rational® DOORS® and data exchange using the ReqIF format!

IBM® Rational® DOORS® integration

Use Retina to modernize your DOORS-based toolset without disrupting existing processes, or replace DOORS for lower costs! For users wanting to continue using DOORS as their requirements management tool and Retina for testing, risk management or ticketing, this new integration simplifies parallel use. Use the new tracker or workspace-level import to easily synchronize data from DOORS to Intland Retina!

Importing requirements from IBM DOORS includes:

• Attributes, artifacts, link mapping (internal & external) and item status
• OLE objects, tables, nested tables, and images
• Maintaining rich text formatting (bold, italic, underline, font colors, strikethrough, or superscript)
• One-to-one mapping of fields between IBM DOORS and Retina
• Re-import requirements from DOORS with all changes highlighted

ReqIF export/import capabilities

ReqIF (the Requirements Interchange Format) is a format standardized by the automotive sector and also used in other industries. ReqIF enables the simple, standardized exchange of requirements, tests, or other work items (along with their relations) across tools. You can simply export the contents of your workspaces (using filters or conditions to specify which artifacts to include in the export) and reuse them in other tools that support ReqIF. Import data from other tools to an existing or a new workspace in Retina, enabling interoperability between ReqIF-supporting platforms.

Streamlined real-time collaboration

Due to a host of usability improvements, Intland Retina 3.2 brings improved real-time collaboration capabilities with both internal and external stakeholders. Threaded comments and updates to the Review Hub help accelerate and improve the accuracy of teamwork.

Comment threading enables you to reply to comments system-wide. Interconnected comments are bundled together, making them easier to follow. Upon replying, the author of the replied comment will be notified automatically. We’ve also updated the toolbar to enable the convenient authoring or editing of comments!

The updated Review Hub now lets you make changes directly on reviewed items without leaving the Hub. Also new in Intland Retina 3.2, the Review Hub now supports FDA Title 21 CFR 11-compliant e-signatures! Add your role to e-signatures, and easily export review data including user role, username, and timestamp in order to adhere to 21CFR11 audit requirements.

Usability updates & UI improvements

Version 3.2 brings a range of usability and user interface updates for improved convenience. Users of Jira or similar ticketing tools will now feel even more comfortable using Intland Retina as we’ve updated the platform’s look and feel around navigation and links.

When managing a number of work items (for instance, in reports, dashboards, or the Review Hub), a new dialog mode lets you easily make changes to multiple items without leaving the page. When updating test runs or items in the Review Hub, or when filtering an item’s history, you’ll see clear notifications about item versions to make sure you know what version you’re editing. Switching to the latest version is now a super convenient one-click action.b

Both horizontal and vertical menus have been upgraded to visually separate menu items that are specific to your workspace vs generic items. To save navigation time, we’ve also added quick access to recently and commonly used Dashboard, Reviews, Workspaces, and Reports directly on the top menu. Simple and convenient, just the way we like it!
