The SysML Trace relationship can be used as a quick way to traceably elicit model elements from an identified diagram or table from a domain source document. You may visually remove the Trace symbols as each element is elicited to reduce clutter.

Unfortunately, there are some minor limitations:
The UML «Trace» and SysML Trace can't be applied to a Slot as target (because Slot is just an Element, not a NamedElement).
The SysML1.6 derived /tracedTo is only available on AbstractRequirement (but in MagicDraw/Cameo you can use derived relationships to achieve the same thing on other kinds of NamedElement).
