    The Unlink requirement window opens.

  7. Click Confirm.

    The related requirement is unlinked.

    Note

    Unlinked requirements will still appear in the program's Removed relations section. If you don't want those requirements to appear in the program at all, you must create a second program without those requirements.

    If creating a second program, do one of the following (depending on the controls you used in your initial program):

    1. Select Include controls to use Hyperproof's illustrative controls.

    2. Import your own controls into the new program.

    Once controls are linked to the new program, archive your initial program. Be sure to select Archive controls only linked to this program. Note that you will lose requirement statuses and/or requirement custom field values.
