The product showcase solution helps a product team build and ship: projects break into tasks, tasks go into fixed sprints, and release dates follow from the sprint. Views show the roadmap by status, priority and due date.
Here is the test: does every task have a sprint, and every sprint a release date? This solution keeps them tied together.
Example: a project lead moves a feature into design. An automation creates its design tasks and assigns them by task type. She puts the tasks in the next sprint, and each task gets the sprint's release date.

What does the solution track?
The solution has six tables. The three at its center are:
Projects: each feature or piece of work, linked to feedback, OKRs and design files, with complexity and effort fields for ranking.
Tasks: the work items of each project, with an owner and a sprint.
Sprints: fixed periods of work, with date ranges, status, workday counts and task totals.
A Data schema widget on the dashboard shows how the tables connect.
How does work flow through it?
Plan the project. Record it in Projects, with its links, complexity and effort.
Create tasks. As the project moves through stages such as UX refinement or design, automations check fields and create its tasks. Owners are set by task type.
Place tasks in sprints. The project lead puts each task in a sprint. The task then shows the sprint's release date, so its owner knows the deadline.
Run the sprint. Sprints are created by automation and show their status, workdays and task totals.
Which views does it use?
Kanban view of Projects: projects by status.
Timeline view of Projects: the roadmap, grouped by priority, with status.
Launch Calendar: projects by due date. More calendars, such as tasks by project, can be added.
Sprint Planning Chart (Tasks): filter to a sprint and select the chart for details.
Project records hold requirements and designs in SmartDoc fields.
Tip: Put a task in a sprint instead of typing a date on it. The sprint fills in the task's release date.
Where do I find it?
The solution is a template in the Solution Library. See Solution Templates.
Frequently asked questions
How do tasks get their deadline?
How do tasks get their deadline?
From their sprint. When a project lead puts a task in a sprint, the task shows the sprint's release date.
Are tasks created by hand?
Are tasks created by hand?
No. Automations create a project's tasks as it moves through its stages, and set owners by task type.
Where do I see the roadmap?
Where do I see the roadmap?
In the Timeline view of Projects, grouped by priority, and in the Launch Calendar by due date.
Who is this solution for?
Who is this solution for?
