You can add or change a comment in a stream. The comment is displayed with the date, time, and the name of the commentor. All the comments of a stream are displayed as a log, and on the Investment analysis and Time grid modes.
Procedure
1 Click the Comment tab.
2 Type a comment. You can enter up to 300 characters. The comments are saved when you save the changes in Investment analysis.
▪ This comment can also be seen from the time grid in grid mode for the stream in which the comment was made.
▪ If you change a comment and switch to another stream, the comment is still retained. You can switch back to that stream and see your unsaved change.
Example
To build a business model, various business cases are created and after analyzing the market opportunity, the assumptions for the revenue is projected. The projections contain a high, low, and expected values. The assumptions that were made to arrive at the projected values can be documented as comments in the Documentation tab. Here is an example taskflow:
1 A benefit stream called Transaction is created for a project
2 The projected high, likely and low values are estimated
3 By using Investment analysis, a comment is added by <Person A> and then reviewed by <Person B> on the assumptions that were made to arrive at the projected values for reference
4 The same comment is viewed and edited in the time grid mode for the Transaction benefit stream
