A Deadline is a date, where the alh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
needs to be finished. A Planned date is a date, where the alh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
is planned to be finished. If there is a conflict between the deadlines and the planned date, warnings will be shown on the alh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
.
Deadlines
The alh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
can have more deadlines. The earliest deadline is the Effective Deadline, i.e. the latest date where the alh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
needs to planned.
The alh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
can get deadlines in different ways. E.g.
- Link the
alh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
to a milestone. You can link thealh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
to a milestone in e.g. Roadmap, Outline, Storymap or in the Relations Tab. The milestone has a deadline, which becomes a deadline on thealh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
linked to it. - A release is a special kind of milestone (it is also a planning container). The release also has a deadline and you can link the
alh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
to a release milestone in Roadmap etc as mentioned above. You can also add a release deadline to aalh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
by planning it in e.g. Product Backlog. - In the Details Edit tab of the
alh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
you can add a specific Required When date. - If a parent in the storymap tree has an Effective Deadline, the child story or epic will inherit this date.
Planned Date
If the alh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
is planned to a release, its planned date is set to the release end date. If a story is further planned to a sprint, the sprint end date will instead become the planned date.
Preplanning will not set the planned date (preplanning containers have no dates). Adding a story to a kanban lane will also not set the planned date, but you can add the story to a release as well, which will set the date.
Warnings
If the planned date does not meet the deadline requirement of the alh-replace:type
story/alh-replace
or if the deadline is exceeded, warnings will be shown in the overview tab and on mouseover of the card.
A warning triangle is shown on the story or epic cards in the Storymap, Product Backlog pages etc.
In the Product Backlog left window (input window), you can get a list of all stories and epics with warnings. These can be sorted according to effective deadlines.
