Manage Requirements (Jobs/Roles etc)
Used to manage “The Skills We Need”, the Requirements Jobs/Roles etc
Before setting up your first set of Requirements, we do suggest that planning is conducted on:
How you intend to Title your Requirements to ensure Titles are unique. This helps prevent confusion when looking at a list of Requirements and assigning them to people
How you intend to Reference Requirements with a Unique Reference which is also required to be unique. The Reference is used specifically when using the Export/Import functionality
A standardized method for both of them can help prevent confusion and mistakes in the future
