Abstract
A hierarchical representation of entities relate to development of at least one product. A portion of a document is selected.

Based on the received indication, a link is created between the selected portion of the document and the at least one of the entities in the hierarchical representation.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- causing, by a processor of a system, a display of a hierarchical representation of entities associated with a development of a product and a document including portions describing features of the product;
- receiving, by the processor, a selection of one entity in the hierarchical representation of entities;
- in response to the selection of the entity in the hierarchical representation of entities and a particular portion of the document was selected, creating, by the processor, a link between the selected entity in the hierarchical representation of entities and the particular portion of the document;
- and
- in response to the selection of the entity in the hierarchical representation of entities and no portion of the document was selected, creating, by the processor, a link between the selected entity in the hierarchical representation of entities and an entirety of the document.

An article comprising a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that upon execution cause a system to:
- cause a display, on a graphical view, of a tree representing a hierarchical representation of entities associated with a development of a product and a document including portions describing features of the product;
- receive a selection of one entity in the hierarchical representation of entities;
- in response to the selection of the entity in the hierarchical representation of entities and a particular portion of the document was selected, create a link between the selected entity in the hierarchical representation of entities and the particular portion of the document;

A system comprising:
- a processor and a memory storing instructions that when executed cause the processor to:
- cause a display, on a graphical view, of a hierarchical representation of entities associated with a development of a product and a document including portions describing features of the product;
- receive a selection of one entity in the hierarchical representation of entities;
- in response to the selection of the entity in the hierarchical representation of entities and a particular portion of the document was selected, create a link between the selected entity in the hierarchical representation of entities and the particular portion of the document;
- and
- in response to the selection of the entity in the hierarchical representation of entities and no portion of the document was selected, create a link between the selected entity in the hierarchical representation of entities and an entirety of the document.
