What information is important in a functional requirement specification? The functional specification must be easy to understand, contain as much information as possible to help define the solution and allow people to understand what is being proposed as a solution to the business need. The functional specification forms a baseline acting as input to technical specifications and development. As functional specifications are sometimes written early in a project it is important they fall under a change control mechanism and the development based upon them contains some contingency for change.Whilst User Requirements describe the end-user requirements for a system, Functional Requirements describe what the system must do. The functional specification defines the requirements to be implemented by the software. The FRS documents the activities that a system must be able to perform.
