Surrogate Module

In order to add traceability links for a modeling element, a surrogate module must exist in DOORS for one of the element's container (either direct or one of its ancestors). For a UML model element, a surrogate module must be based on one of the owning UML packages or the UML Model itself.

A surrogate module is a DOORS formal module which contains DOORS objects representing the model elements and diagrams.
