Everyone, it's kenan from the product team and we're gonna talk about portfolio management in 13.3. Let's go ahead and look at our planning issue.

A

All right so we'll be continuing with our shared group theme, with project management into adding swimlanes in to issue boards, with the first iteration being epic swimlanes for those who need a refresher or for those who ever seen this for the first time.

A

This is essentially what the functionality will look like once it's in the product, you will have the option up in the top right corner the border to select a group by option, and this will I mean the first version will be epics and what this will create is horizontal swim lanes across your issue board that group all your issues by the epics that they're assigned to so we can see here. In this example, we have an epic one, which has two issues and different workflow states, and then below that we have.

A

Epic, two, which you can see is actually collapsed, to hide it from the board and then below that. We would then also provide a swim line that essentially just shows issues that don't have epic assignments at the moment.

A

We're iterating through this there's a lot of work to do for this one, so we're iterating it in a couple different steps which one go through real quick. You know if the first step we're doing is just creating that group by functionality on the board. We're then working to actually properly display issues in the swim lanes across workflows.

A

Well, then, move actually displaying the issues without the epics at the bottom of the board and then we'll move into adding the drag-and-drop functionality that you're used to on boards now so between is between your workflow list and then actually between the swim lanes themselves, which effectively would allow you to drag-and-drop epic or issues into different epochs for reassignment, it's necessary once we have the basic functionality for the MVC release. Will then start working through iterations of you know, quality of use to maturity, which these will probably move into future milestones.

A

But if we have an opportunity to work on them in this one, we will try with the adding the ability to collapse. Those swim lanes just to clean up the view. If you only want to focus on one or two, you know porting over the ability to collapse. The individual workflow lists again for the same reason, making sure that those collapse collapse. States, are persistent across across your views and then we're going to do some updating on the configuration middle of the board.

A

We're gonna add some options like hiding the open and close columns and move the hide labels option in the configuration model, Moodle itself to give us a little more real estate on the board and clean that view up. So that's our primary focus that we're gonna be looking at in 13.3. If you have any questions, you can find me at at Kate O'keefe in the get lab product, and my information will be in the description of the video below see you next month.
