  • Request for Change (Focused Build)

  • Change Documents (Focused Build)

Method and Counting

Request for Change and Change Documents in Focused Build are entries counting the number of Focused Build-specific requests for change and related change documents. These two entries are available in all branches and count the number of Focused Build-specific request for change and change documents for the relevant structure.

As soon as the number of counted requests for change or change documents is more than zero, the link to the Mass Change transaction becomes active.

Requirements

This entry is shown in all branches. Due to the Focused Build methodology, you can create a requirement for a relevant selected structure only in the design branch.

The displayed number of requirements depends on the selected branch:

  • Design branch: As the design branch is the main working area for requirements, all requirements assigned to a structure are counted and displayed in the Requirements Management app. In this app, you can create new or process already existing requirements. You can also create new or assign already existing work packages.

  • Development branch: All requirements with at least one work package in status In Development or higher.

  • Production branch: Sum of all available requirements for a selected structure.

Work Packages

This entry is shown in all branches. However, the number differs depending on the selected branch:

  • Design branch: All work packages in a status before In Development, that is, without assignments in the development branch in status Scope Extension

  • Development branch: All work packages in status In Development or later, that is, with assignments in the development branch

  • Production branch: Sum of all available work packages

Work Items

This entry is shown in the development and production branch:

  • Design branch: No work items

  • Development branch: All work items

  • Production branch: Sum of all available work items
