How do I add Actionable Items / Team Workflows to an Action

The Action tracking system has the designed concept of keeping all work being performed by multiple teams under a single "Action" object. As the user learns more about a problem/enhancement, they can add additional actionable items, and thus team workflows, by selecting the "Actionable Items" hyperlink at the top of the editor and selecting/deselecting items. New Team Workflows will be automatically created by ATS for AIs not covered by existing Team Workflows.

eg. Requirements workflow is being worked and the requirements developer realizes that the change impacts tools and code and test. They can select these actionable items and new Team Workflows will be created and routed to the appropriate teams and team leads as configured.

How do I edit the fields of a state in a Team Workflow, Task or Review

You must be an assignee and on the current state to edit the fields.

How do I become an assignee for a Team Workflow, Task or Review

In order to become the assignee of a state:

  1. Any current assignee can add new assignees
  2. If current assignee is "UnAssigned", you can add yourself as an assignee, save the workflow and then edit as normal. Note: You must save the workflow before being allowed to edit.
  3. Select the Privileged Edit button and either assign yourself or find a user that has privilege to add you


Priviledged Edit

The "Privileged Edit" capability in ATS allows for certain users to be assigned authority to edit any field in the workflow (Team, Task or Review). This includes adding and removing assignees. Selecting the "Privileged Edit" icon in the Workflow Editor will either show a list of users assigned this capability or allow the current user to enter this mode and make changes.

What is the basic workflow of an Action in ATS

(End User) Generate Action for Enhancement/Issue
- Select bug icon in top right corner of OTE window corresponding to Action OR select "A" icon in top right window of ATS Navigator or ATS World.
- If bug icon: Enter title for Action and press Ok
- If "A" icon: Select OSEE Product, Select LBA Configuration, Select version problem was found against and Select OTE_SW, OTE_HW or both depending on whether the Action is against the Software or Hardware portions of OTE.

(End User) Identify State
- Edit Action to include required/optional fields and select "Complete"

(Endorser [configured]) - Endorse State
- Validate information provided in Identify State
- Edit Action and to provide more information
- Select impacted Product/Aspects

(Product Leads/Dev Engineers) - Analyze State
For each product impacted
- Analyze Action and Assign Aspects impacted
- Record estimated hours to complete

(Management/Product Leads) - Authorize State
- Approve Action for implementation

(Product Leads/Dev Engineers) - Implementation State
For each product impacted
- Assign engineers to implement changes to Aspects impacted
- Continually record percent complete and hours spent until completion

(End User) - Validation State
- Validate that the resolution meets the users needs

Completed State
- Changes committed to repository and ready for release

How do I create a Working Branch

Team Workflows can be configured to allow changes to Artifacts (like requirements) to be configuration managed. States that allow this will show the "Working Branch" widget which allows for branches to be created.

Tasks

How do I create Tasks for a Team Workflow

There are a few ways to easily create tasks for a Team Workflow.

  1. From the "Task" tab off the Team Workflow Editor, select the "New Task"
  2. Right click on "Task" tab table off the Team Workflow Editor, select "New Task"
  3. Import tasks from Simple List
    1. Select pulldown from toolbar off the Team Workflow Editor, select "Import Tasks via Simple List"
    2. Enter one task title per line.
    3. Select an assignee for the new Task(s), if desired.
  4. Import tasks from Spreadsheet
    1. Download sample excel spreadsheet
    2. Edit spreadsheet, providing one row per task to be created
    3. Ensure that Originator and Assignee cells have name of existing user in your OSEE database
    4. Select pulldown from toolbar off the Team Workflow Editor, select "Import Tasks via Spreadsheet".

Configuration

How do I configure ATS for multi-branch committing

ATS can be configured to support committing artifact changes to multiple variant branches. This is done through configuring ATS to use Versions and configuring each version to the branch that it manages. See http://wiki.eclipse.org/OSEE/ATS/Users_Guide.
