We have a lot of initiatives as we build a new product from the ground up. Our goals and initiatives pages are getting out of hand. More grouping, hiding and sorting capabilities are needed.
We have added enhanced sorting and filtering options for goals and initiative details pages.
You can now filter by any data point connected to goals or initiatives
You can also sort your initiatives by Name, Rank, Status, or Timeframe
Additionally, we've made it possible to customize your goal and initiative cards and added support for expanded and collapsed views.
Would recommend adding a couple of fields to Initiative - for example an Assignee; more choices for status. Then provide options to view the initiatives by all these attributes.
I guess you can present a "workflow" view mode for Initiatives as well. You already have this for Master Features and Features... perhaps you can enable the same for initiatives.
The Features also has a quick "List" view right there in the Features module. Can you enable a "list" mode while viewing initiatives? It takes several clicks to go to a list report; having the List View right there in the Initiatives module would be pretty handy so I can sort by different fields like Initiative name, Assignee, Status
Need to sort initiatives lists by scorecard
I currently hand-sort the goals.. it would be great to be able to sort by a custom field, i.e. a priority field or rank/scorecard. This way higher ranked goals show up first.
I agree, we have 50+ initiatives now as we are in the midst of 2016 planning. It would be nice to have some grouping of them. An Initiative Board (similar to feature board) would be a nice visual. We have already created a custom field for "Initiative Category" for higher order initiatives or groups. If those categories were instead like parking lots for features, that would be great. It would save us a field and give a better visual.
