Customising DOORS

DOORS® provides extensive customisation facilities. Some are provided by the manufacturer "out of the box" or on request. A good example of the latter is the WEXP tool, which enables us to export DOORS-based specifications to Microsoft Word. Since the export target includes a flexible Word template, the document may be generated to meet the precise needs of the customer.

We produce our own DOORS customisations using the DXL scripting language. Examples of the scripts that we have implemented are:

We use a range of other scripts to assist in the standardisation of documentation produced, improve compatibility between documents and reduce reworking effort. Our DXL customisations are tailored to meet our customers' specific needs.
