Features

A feature represents any capability in your application that you want to promote to stakeholders during the application development process. You can create features and child features during Direct Capture of Objectives (DCO) sessions and throughout the application development process.

When you are developing an application and designing case types, you can link each case type to top-level features in Designer Studio. In addition, you can link existing rules to features, which makes it easier for you to extend the application by knowing which rules are associated with which features.

When you create a case type, a feature is automatically created for that case type. For example, when you create a Loan case type for an application called Banking, a Loan feature is automatically created.

You can create additional features on the Application Overview landing page. From this page, you can also do the following tasks to manage features:

• Create, manage, and delete features.
• View the list of features in a tree view or card view.
• Filter the list to view all features, features from the current application, or features from the current version.
• View and update the description and business objectives for your application.
• View the top-level case types for your application.
• Upload and view attachments that are associated with the current application.
• Use Pulse to facilitate communication between application developers and other stakeholders.
