You don't have to start from nothing. Bring your existing records into a project, and they arrive as drafts with where they came from, ready for review.

Records
Project → Records → Import accepts:
| Format | From |
|---|---|
| ReqIF | IBM DOORS, Polarion, Jama Connect, Codebeamer and most requirements tools |
| CSV | Spreadsheets and any tool that exports CSV |
Map each column or attribute to a Tracewright field and record kind. You see a preview first: how many records of each kind, which links will be made, and anything that couldn't be mapped.
Verification results
Import results from a test tool as JUnit XML or CSV, with each test naming its protocol key. Results arrive linked to their protocols; outcomes still need a person to confirm them where your flow requires it.
Moving a whole programme
- Start the project with the right domain profile and standards.
- Import requirements first, then design elements, then protocols, so links resolve.
- Import results last.
- Review imported records in batches by area; approve them to form your first baseline.
- Keep the old tool read-only until the first baseline is published.
