Viewing Requirement Revisions

You can view a list of revisions on a requirement in order to see the requirement's revision history. During the early definition process in the product development process, requirements undergo many changes until the requirement is understood by the team that will be implementing it. During the Preliminary or Draft states of the requirement, changes can be made without revision control. However once the requirement is released, it must be under change control and must obey rules of the Engineering Change (EC) process.
