4: TRM Enhancements

If users completing the Component Information form know the name of the Technical Specification at the fourth layer of the TRM, they should be able to enter it into that field without having to select the values in the upper three layers. Those layers should automatically be populated based upon the values entered in the fourth layer of the hierarchy.

Other Information:

The default value in the Technical Specification layer should be “Unspecified”. If the users do not know the exact name of the applicable specification or whether it is already in the TRM, they should be able to query by example on that field to: Determine the exact name &/or acronym (controlled vocabulary) of the specification, or know with some degree of confidence that it is not yet referenced in the TRM, in which case they could propose to include it, using the Propose Specification feature already provided. Users querying the ET.gov site should be able to discover components associated with any particular technical specification included in the TRM, as well as any specification proposed for inclusion in the TRM.
