Item mapping rules specify how to create items from other items. The rules contain field mappings to indicate the values to copy from the source item to the new item, how to link the items, and if the new items are added to the same folders as the source items.
Helix ALM includes default item mapping rules for the following actions. See Default item mapping rules.
You can also create rules for creating requirements from other requirement types.
Note: The item mapping rules you can configure depend on the item types you can access based on the license you logged in with.
