PM57799: DOORS Help is not clear regarding the maintenance of history with respect to links.

Rational DOORS 9.4

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The Help states
  (publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/doorshlp/v9/index.jsp?topic=/
  com.ibm.doors.requirements.doc/topics/c_modulehistory.html?lang=
  en)
  
  'By default, creating and deleting in-links and out-links is
  recorded in the module history'
  
  German variant:
  publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/doorshlp/v9/index.jsp?topic=/c
  om.ibm.doors.requirements.doc/topics/c_modulehistory.html?lang=d
  e
  
  'Standardm??ig werden die Erstellung und der L?schvorgang von
  Links im Modulverlauf aufgezeichnet.'
  
  i.e. German variant does not note in-links, out-links (which
  will be understood as DOORS links); just links.  The same is
  true of French/Spanish versions.
  
  
  The history of External links is not recorded.
  
  Expected Behaviour:
  
  The help should explicitly state that only the history of DOORS
  links is maintained.
