Roadmap view

Timeline Roadmap tab is the calendar view for all releases and versions based on their Start and Release dates.

Releases and versions without Release date are considered as unscheduled and therefore not displayed on the TimelineRoadmap.

All unscheduled items can be found on the Unscheduled panel where you can schedule them by specifying the Release date.

Releases and versions with the Release date only are displayed as Milestones.

In addition to releases and versions overview on the Timeline Roadmap you can:

• update start and release dates by drag-and-drop
• add new and edit existing releases and versions
• search timeline roadmap by item name and versions by released/archived status
• identify versions which mismatch their parent release dates
• schedule multiple releases and versions at once

Here is a brief overview of the Timeline Roaadmap UI blocks:

1. Unscheduled panel
2. Releases panel
3. Releases with nested versions 
4. Versions
5. Milestones

The timeline Roadmap is split into swimlanes by releases. All versions without a parent release are grouped into "Versions without release" in the bottom of the TimelineRoadmap.

It is possible to Edit, Archive or Delete versions and releases on the Timeline Roadmap from the context menu.

Scheduling warning

If a version is part of the release and the version start date is before the release start date or the version release date is after the release date of parent release scheduling, a warning is displayed:

Unscheduled panel

The Unscheduled panel contains all releases and version which don't have the Release date.

It is possible to schedule releases and their versions from that panel in bulk.

The panel has its own search function that can help to find the items to schedule.

If a release has at least one version without a release date  - the release should stay in unscheduled tab even if it has a release date specified. Correspondingly, the release will be shown on the timelineRoadmap.

In order to schedule a release or a version, click the Schedule button   next to the item to be scheduled.
