Question
A business analyst (BA) worked with two stakeholders to finalize the access rights related requirements for an internal software application. According to the first stakeholder "Comments, once entered in the application, should be stored for 365 days and should not allow the users to delete". According to the second stakeholder, "The users with super administrator privileges should be able to add/delete/modify every page/section in the entire application." Which characteristic does this pair of requirements fail to meet?

Explanation
The pair of requirements fail to meet the characteristic of consistency, which means that the requirements do not contradict or conflict with each other or with other requirements. The first requirement states that comments should not be deleted by the users, while the second requirement states that users with super administrator privileges should be able to delete every page/section in the application. This implies that super administrators can also delete comments, which contradicts the first requirement. The BA should resolve this inconsistency by clarifying the scope and definition of the terms "users" and "comments", and by specifying the exceptions or conditions for the deletion of comments.
