GRP-21577 Sprint 5

Sprint story	Documentation impact
Twenty-one rule forms are converted to use harness rules rather than FormBuilder rules. New Controls used instead of HTML Properties where applicable in the converted forms: No direct, immediate end user benefit to the conversion. Supports meeting a cross-browser, localized Designer Studio when that request arises.	Check for changes in labels, tabs, controls to identify any impact to existing help topics for the converted forms. Update as needed.

GRP-22329 Sprint 7 (no Sprint 6 label in PMF )

Sprint story	Documentation impact
New priority: List-based editing - Prototype ability to edit Data-Admin-Workbasket in a list of instances Prototyping an enhancement to provide for those situations when users are presented with a list of items to work with (for example, the Instances list), the users can update information about an item directly in the list, and avoid opening the rule form for the item.	None for this sprint (prototype). Once fully implemented, will impact all places where the help describes working with lists (e.g., landing pages, the instances list view)
New priority: State-based validation - Prototype form based on mockup: Epic is about simplifying and reconciling all the ways that validation is specified. Currently, there are many ways to implement validation, and no one true way communicated to end users. This sprint's story is to prototype a way that a business analyst can specify conditionalized validation.	None for this sprint (prototype). Once fully implemented, will be a new form and will need new help topics for it.
FormBuilder rule conversion: Convert the rules that can be done automatically by the tool with 95% accuracy - 5 rule forms Data-Admin-Connect-EmailListener Data-Admin-Connect-FileListener Data-Admin-Connect-FTPServer Data-Admin-Connect-MQListener Data-Admin-Connect-MQServer	Provide edits to Scrum team on the tooltips they have to trim to fit 64 character length Done

Sprint story	Documentation impact
List-based editing - Continue on prototyping ability to edit Data-Admin-Workbasket in a list of instances Working prototype	Review column headings of instances list view in prototype and provide feedback on improvements, consistency with column headings in the product

State-based validation - Prototype form based on mockup: Make changes based on latest input from Steve Bixby	Will need new help folder/topics for this new StatesValidation class/rule if it gets green lighted for 6.2
