Process
All the data can be changed after the creation of the Initiative or Release. BizDock comes with a set of pre-configured reference data (like Initiative types, Release types or Life Cycle Processes) that can be personalized.
The page is composed by 2 areas:
- On the left: the standard attributes listed above
- On the right: the configured Initiative/Release custom attributes
After clicking of the “Submit” button, the following operations are automatically done:
- The Initiative/Release is in Concept state,
- A Governance ID is automatically given (it represents an incremental ID),
- And if a Portfolio has been selected, the Portfolio Manager gets a Notification that a new entry has been added to his Portfolio
