The header of each card shows the Epic name followed by Product and Release information. Beneath is a list of related Features. The state of individual Features controls the position of cards within the columns. When Features belonging to the same Epic are in different states, multiple cards for a single Epic will be displayed. Clicking a card will highlight all of the same Epic.

Features appear in the roadmap based on the following:

  • Released = Features released within the last year.
  • Implementing = Features actively in development.
  • Backlog = Features fully defined by Product Management. Ready for development as capacity allows.
  • Analyzing = Features under study by Product Management.

Target releases and dates shown for Features in Implementing are subject to change, and no timeframe or release is implied for Features in Backlog and Analyzing, nor are they listed in any particular order. This delivery approach is consistent with the SAFe methodology. Roadmap features are shown to provide customers and partners a basis for discussion with Aras Product Management.
