Set quality rules for propertiesIn your project, quality can be assured by setting quality rules. For every property with quality rules, users are notified whenever they try to edit it in a way that breaks the quality rules.
| Quality rule type | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Value of property required | This rule assures the quality of a project by checking if every element has a value for the selected property. A quality reminder will be given for every element where this property’s value is missing. |
| Value of property required in life cycle |
This quality rule can be applied to type elements with a life cycle property. It means the property will be required for certain parts of an element’s life cycle. If the value of a property is missing and the corresponding element is in the selected part of the life cycle, a quality reminder will be given. |
