Product Increment

It is a tangible business result achieved by the team as a result of completing a specific set of business goals (Epic) for the project and is limited by a specific date.

In the system, the user can create the necessary number of PIs. Each subsequent PI supplements the previous ones or can be independent of others as part of the project.

Product Increment includes:

• A set of business goals for the project (Epic) that are combined with an expected result and have Acceptance Criteria
• Planned completion date for all work

Status of Product Increment - is defined/not defined

• Checking the checkbox "Is defined" is a signal to the system that tasks are ready for planning and automatic assignment of an executor.

By default, the Product Increment is "not defined."

Mandatory conditions for transitioning to the "Is defined" state:

• Planned date is set.
• At least 1 task with specified competencies and deadlines exists.

There are no restrictions for transitioning to the "not defined" state.

When transitioning to the "not defined" state, all tasks (except those in the "Done" state) are removed from planning, and any assignment of an executor at any stage of the workflow is canceled.

• When the project is transitioned to the "On hold" status, all Product Increments are set to the "not defined" state.
• When the project is transitioned from the "On hold" status to the "Active" status, all Product Increments remain in the "not defined" state.

User actions:

• Creating a link to an epic at any point in time. 
• Changing the link to an epic at any time (moving epic to another product increment).
