Starting with version 6.5.2, you can add or change a comment
in a stream. The comment is displayed with the date, time, and the
name of the commentor. All the comments of a stream are displayed
as a log, and on the Investment analysis and Time grid modes.
Procedure
- Click the Comment tab.
- Type a comment. You can enter up to 300 characters.
The comments are saved when you save the changes in Investment analysis.
Note: - This comment can also be seen from the time grid in grid mode
for the stream in which the comment was made.
- If you change a comment and switch to another stream, the comment
is still retained. You can switch back to that stream and see your
unsaved change.
Example
To build a business model, various business cases are created
and after analyzing the market opportunity, the assumptions for the
revenue is projected. The projections contain a high, low, and expected
values. The assumptions that were made to arrive at the projected
values can be documented as comments in the Documentation tab. Here
is an example task flow:
- A benefit stream called Transaction is created for a project
- The projected high, likely and low values are estimated
- By using Investment analysis, a comment is added by <Person
A> and then reviewed by <Person B> on the assumptions that were
made to arrive at the projected values for reference
- The same comment is viewed and edited in the time grid mode for
the Transaction benefit stream
