Business processes defined in this Sprint

WU Backlog

This is a new project added as a last phase. We need this to separate tasks that came to WU from current Sprint from tasks that are waiting for WU since previous Sprints. Sprint Manager is to move tasks to this folder.

Release Notes to be created by BAs at UAT phase

Phase UAT was renamed into UAT/RN to reflect the fact that during that phase BAs are also responsible to create RN (Release note) for every mantis to be released.

Release Note (for specific mantis or feature) is a summary (1-3 paragraphs) of info to be included into Release Notes and explains to end user what is this feature/bugfix/tweak/etc is about. This was requested by Simon.

See new format for RN here:

RN is to be posted into mantis note (see example below). This will be collected by Support Engineer, assembled into RN and passed to Sprint Manager for review and Sys Admin to include into "New Release" message at the time of release.

Below is example for 0002931: [KPI] (External KPIs) Cost per pound (Level 2). Add more options.

Rel Notes
---------
Two additional options has been added as a choice for Axis X to this report: a "Consignees" and 
"Shippers" (Suppliers). Both options support line or a pie chart visualization.

New Rel Notes will be consolidated here (work in progress): Release Notes v2.17 May June

Proto phase and proto field has been added

This is a new phase added for new components build without detailed designs. Before sending finalized feature to QA developer he will submit prototype to BA.

This task is to be assigned be assigned to QA with proto mantis field set to Y.

QA is to deploy this and to move to Proto folder and assign to BA.

See also diagram.

Completed by developers tasks is to be deployed to Demo server by QA engineer daily

QA engineer is to:

• find all completed by developers tasks in Dev, DevPull, Proto, QA folders
• to deploy new version of code to demo site
• to move to appropriate folder as required and assign to BA or QA as appropriate
• do it once a day at least

Pre-Implementation and Post-Implementation Notes

In cases when design is not well defined Pre-Implementation Notes must be posted into mantis before coding by developer.

Post-Implementation Notes must be submitted before Proto and QA if spec or previous notes provide no info regarding what was created.

Example (note 0009982 from 0003041: [Rates DB] (MOT Air) (ph1) Implement Contract Upload feature):

Pre-Implem Notes
----------------
Upload procedure:
1.	User selects a menu item Acc/Rate Contracts/Rate Contract’s Upload
2.	There will be preliminary form which user should fill before chosing the file with Rate 
Contract
3.	In this form user should indicate
  a.	Name of contract
  b.	Airline or JaguarVendor for which the contract will be uploaded
  c.	Comments for this contract (optionally)
  d.	ChargeCode for this contract (one)
  e.	Included ChargeCodes for this contract (multiply)
4.	After filling this form user clicks button “Chose Contract Rate file” choses file and clicks
button “Upload”
5.	System will automatically update RateDatabase according to this file 
6.	First level of automatically updating Database will be only for one format of RateContracts 
files

Example from 0002412: [Internal Dash Reps] 1) Create "past due arrivals" DR 2) Add ability to define DR for specific group of users:

Post-Implem Notes
----------------
1) "past due arrivals" Dash Rep (DR) was created
* This rep has level 1 that consists of label and counter (num of CTs).
* Counter is a hyperlink
* click on hyperlink should open xls with past due arrivals report (existing report)
2) Add ability to define DR for specific group of users
Scheduled Reps panel will have added functionality to assign one or many Dash Reports to specific  
users
.
WARNING!
1) All dash reports assigned to user will show up in ONE panel on Internal Dashboard (Homepage)
2) Only one (past due) will work the rest of them are not fully functional

WU notes

"WU notes" is a type of mantis note that contains information that:

• was missing in spec and needs to be added during WU phase (type: add) OR
• should replace some existing info in spec (type: replace) OR
• should be deleted from spec (type: delete)

It could be posted by QA or UAT engineers who discovered gaps in specs or Implementation notes at the time of testing.

Example from 0002412: [Internal Dash Reps] 1) Create "past due arrivals" DR 2) Add ability to define DR for specific group of users:

WU Notes
--------
Warning: Counter updates one time per hour but click on hyperlink opens xls
 result with real time information (number of shipments would differ from
counter on level one).

This info will be found by engineer who is responsible by Wiki Updates and and applied to spec in WU phase.

UAT to WU transition

BA:

• completes UAT
• posts RN note
• sets task as "completed"

Sprint Manager/Architect:

• reviews
• posts note indicating wiki article where to post WU for this task and what subcomponent mantis to link to (if this is not straightforward)
• moves to WU folder
• assigns to who will do WU
