Quality Gates

Information

  • Quality gates are a type of controlling element for the portfolio manager to control the progress of the planning objects contained in the portfolio.
  • Quality gates are defined (scheduled, and divided into separate tasks) by the portfolio manager and are assigned to the individual planning objects.
  • The assigned quality gates in the Schedule in the Quality Gates module variant of the respective planning object are displayed to the project managers. They create the degree of completion of the tasks of these quality gates and their probable completion date and thus enable the portfolio manager to observe compliance with the requirements.

Edit Quality Gates

  • Enter the date estimated for the achievement of the quality gate in the Prob. compl. on field.
  • In the File field, a file relevant for the todo item can be stored.
  • Create or refresh the degree of completion of the respective todo item in the % completed field.

Caution:

  • Since from a technical point of view quality gates are tasks, the requested end dates calculated for them can influence the project dates. Since the quality gates are automatically copied when the planning object is assigned to the portfolio, please check the schedules of the planning objects or the dates of the quality gates for assignments of the planning objects to portfolios.
