Creating Features and Subfeatures

Product marketing managers can use Release Manager to enter new product features and, if appropriate, subfeature components of these features.

To add a feature and subfeature

1. Navigate to the Release screen > Features list view.
2. Add a new feature record and complete the fields, as needed.

   Some fields are described in the following table.

   Field	Description
   Account	Account that requested the feature or to which your company is contractually obligated to deliver the feature.
   Area	Product area associated with the feature.
   Associated Parties	Individuals associated with the feature. The product marketing manager responsible for the feature should be set as Primary.
   EAT Completion Date	Engineering Acceptance Test completion date.
   Parent	Parent feature to the current feature. You can use this field to set up an n-level hierarchy of parent features and child subfeatures. However, linking to a parent feature with the Parent field does not add this feature to the parent feature's Subfeatures list.
   Priority	Priority of this feature relative to other features targeted for the same release.
   Product Line	The list of product line choices depends on the selection in the Subarea field.
   Release	Name or number of the product release for which the feature is a candidate.
