Business Requirement
====================

Introduction
^^^^^^^^^^^^

This module is part of a set ("Business Requirement").
The Business Requirements features start as independent entities, and can be
used as standalone.

Additional modules integrate them with other business areas, such as Sales,
Procurement, Project or Analytic Accounting. For example:

* Sales Quotation can have an estimation supported by a BR analysis
* Project Tasks can be related to the BRs they implement or support
* Procurement and purchase can be generated out of the BR

The following diagram gives a simplified view of the universe:

What is a Business Requirement?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

A Business requirement (BR) is the expression of a business need by a customer
or internal project user.
A BR can contain multiple different parts depending on the company needs:

* Customer Story: this is the requirement as expressed by the customer
* Scenario: How/where the current solution can provide a suitable scenario to
answer the customer story
* Gap: For the uncovered part of the scenario, elaborate the gap/need for specific
developments/setup
* Deliverables to be provided to the customer/user
* Resources necessary to achieve the deliverables
* Additional information (approval, cost control etc.)

These modules were originally design for the service/IT industry but the
requirement management is generic and can apply to many cases/industries (customer
or internal projects):

* Construction
* Trading (New product development)
* Business Consultancy
* IT development

What is the difference between a BR and CRM lead?

* CRM leads are sales oriented
* BR are project and workload estimation oriented

How to use this module?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This module only contains the standard models for business requirement:

* BR model definition

You can start conversation with the followers in the chatter area of the
BR like in tasks, issue or CRM leads.

Default numbering format: BR123456.

You can modify the default numbering sequence in Settings/Technical/Sequences&Identifier/Sequences.

.. figure:: static/img/bus_req_tags.png

:alt: Define Tags


Master project
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You can define a master project linked to the business requirement.

Followers from the project will automatically be added to the business requirements.


Usage
=====

Simple BR
^^^^^^^^^
1. Define the header information

* Master Project (Partner is the one related to the master project)
* Priority (low, Medium, High)
* Change request: Is it a change request? (currently only informational with n model or action)
* Tags: any relevant tag for the business.
* Owner and approver by default

.. figure:: static/img/bus_req_tags2.png
:width: 600 px
:alt: Input header information

2. Input the customer story, scenario and gap (simple html editor with image and text)

.. figure:: static/img/bus_req_cust_story.png
:width: 600 px
:alt: Input customer story, scenario, gap

3. Confirm the Business requirement (for BR User and Manager)
At that stage the Customer story/Scenario/Gap is not modifiable anymore

.. figure:: static/img/bus_req_confirmed.png
:width: 600 px
:alt: Confirm your business requirement

4. Approve the Business requirement (for BR Manager)

.. figure:: static/img/bus_req_approved.png
:width: 600 px
:alt: Confirm your business requirement

5. Once your requirement is finished and delivered you can set it as Done

.. figure:: static/img/bus_req_done.png
:width: 600 px
:alt: Confirm your business requirement

6. Alternatively, you can cancel the BR (in case it is not relevant or mistake) or drop it (when customer makes the decision to discontinue it)

:alt: Cancel your business requirement


.. figure:: static/img/bus_req_drop.png
:width: 600 px
:alt: Drop your business requirement


Sub-business requirements

User can create sub business requirements for a given BR for complex cases.

This is a simple parent/child relation (see roadmap).
