Everyone, it's kenan from the product team and we're going to talk about portfolio management for 13.0, so I'm go ahead and share our kickoff issue.

A

Okay, so, first off we're trying a different format on with our kick-off issue, we're really just trying to focus on individual themes that were working to provide additional value or clean up user experience or just work on for the upcoming release versus just a couple line items individual features that we just would have called out the past. So we're gonna like collect these in the thematic elements and talk through them just to give some better organization to everything.

A

So the first thing we're really we're looking at in 3900, is kind of what we're calling improving epic accessibility, which really just making them easier to use, create.

A

So there's quite a few small updates in here, but a couple big big ones. I want to call out so first off we're going to add a drop down, search form when you're creating a new issue, so you can actually just assign it to an epoch right there.

A

Another one we're doing is actually adding a new epoch button up. In the top right corner, when you're on an epic view very much like we have issues right now, you know if you're on an issue you're the button up top create a new issue, we're doing the same thing for epics.

A

We're also looking to consolidate some of the buttons in the epic tree just to save on real estate and make things a little more minimalist, and so, instead of having that an issue, add epic which we're going to try to put those all into a singular menu just to again clean things up another one that we're really excited to roll out is kind of an addition to what we added last milestone, where we enabled you to filter the issue list by an epic.

A

Now we're actually going to let you bulk, edit, the epic field on the issue list. So if you have collection issues, you search them, you say: I want to consolidate these into a single epic will actually allow you to. Then you know go ahead and select the ones you want to adds that epic and find the epic and drop-down list much like you do with milestones and labels in the issue list right now and then the final one actually. So this moves into our second theme, which is expanding details provided on the roadmap.

A

So we've been working on the expanding epic epic hierarchy on the roadmap for a while now, which is really justified. Oparin epic I need to fold it out on the roadmap so that I can see the sub that mix below it. We came really close to getting it out in 12.9, but there's some complexities and some UI experience that we wanted to polish a little more before we rolled it out. So we're gonna continue pushing on that and for those who maybe aren't aware this mock-up of whatever it'll look like you know.

A

If I have my improve the user experience of feature as the parent epic, with my epic sub FX 1 2 & 3 under it they're actually going to kind of accordion how, under that perronnette back on the roadmap and just make it a little easier to kind of visually organize that work on a timeline.

A

Aside from that, we do have a couple: what we're ongoing investment and performance experience quality. So you know working on some of our filtered search component that we're gonna use on the roadmap, because we are going to focus on letting you filter the roadmap or soon's. We're gonna lay some groundwork for that. We need to work on some of the graph. Ql carries queries a levered card. A lot of the epic features are leveraging to make this moment for a min and just less complex.

A

You know there's some progress bars not being sticky on the roadmap when you scroll horizontally, we want to clean up and as well as an update to a pi/4 issues and when you add them an epoch there they weren't being previewed properly. So that's what we have for 13.0 in portfolio management. If you have any questions, comments or feedback, please find me in get lab at koke f. He replied to the video that this we're gonna post or just comment on any issue or epoch that you find interesting and have some thoughts on. As always.

A

Thank you very much and we'll see you next month.
