Importing Items and Wiki Pages
Codebeamer allows you to import items and wiki pages in various formats, including the following:
Rich Text Format(RTF)
.doc and .docx files
Non-RTF files
Before importing, you should keep the following points in mind:
Each heading creates a new issue.
Heading texts are used as issue summaries.
Paragraphs between headings are used as issue descriptions.
The hierarchy of paragraphs in the original document is preserved. If paragraph B has a smaller heading than paragraph A, issue B is treated as the child of issue A.
