  Create/Import of an enumeration type results in a DXL error
  

Problem conclusion

• DOORS has an issue with returning incorrect color values
  when the enumaration is set to default. The Integration has
  workaround this issue by assigning the correct default value
  to colors if the enumeration is set to default.
  

Temporary fix
