We use Rational Rose, ReqPro, SoDA, etc. in our shop. The information
generally flows as you described above. SoDA is essentially a report
generator. The integration and info flow between tools is decent and getting
better w/ each release.

I posted a very general overview of doing documentation in a Rational
Unified Process (RUP) shop a while back on this list--you might want to
check the archives.

What, exactly, is your question? What do you need to know? I'd suggest you
check out Rational's web site for general information. It's at
http://www.rational.com/.

cheers,
brent
