Variant Stream Addon

This extension is allowed users to see changes between different streams in the same module in the mini dashboard of the user. It is allowed to accept or refuse these changes in your or the other streams. Streams are compared instantly and all of them. Users have the ability to mark the checkboxes of each artifact and this artifact is compared automatically with other streams

In many cases users would like to have a variant management using several streams. This means that a requirement can exist in several streams with different requirements, text or attributes. This Add-on is useful for clients with enabled Global configuration management in DNG.

Users can push changes in the current configuration to one or more other streams, which are compared. They can update several streams at the same time.
