Thevarious kind of design document which are required to be created for the development of software productare High level Design (HLD), Low Level Design (LLD) and Change Request Design (CRD) Document .Low level design document gives the design of the actual software application. Low level design documentis based on High Level Design document [2]. After an application is implemented at client site, there canbe changes which the client may ask during the implementation or maintenance phase. For such changes,Change Request Design documents are created. A good design document will make the application veryeasy to develop/maintain by the developer. CR Designer tool is designed and developed to create astandard Change Request Design (CRD) documents and tracing the changes done in processes of themodule in different versions of CRD document released.
