If you've ever felt that your organization needs a merger between waterfall and agile in order to give all teams a unified view of projects across the organization, we have the solution for you. monday dev users can create an Agile project from selected epics, which are then copied and synced into a new project entity on monday AI work platform. How amazing is that?
Where to find the Agile portfolio project
In order to get started, navigate to the + sign button next to your workspace. Then hover over the Dev templates in the dropdown menu, and then click on Agile portfolio project.
Setting up the Agile portfolio project
Name your project and then click on Next:
Next you will have to choose which epics to track. Select your epics board and then which specific epics you need to keep track of:
Afterwards, you'll need to match epics with project columns so you can be aligned on how everything will look in the monday AI work platform portfolio project:
The final step will ask you to map status labels by using the drag and drop tool to match labels from your epics board to match the default statuses used in new projects:
You can add multiple epic status labels into project status labels. When you've finished matching the labels, click in Create project.
Once your project is created, you will see it in your workspace:
You can add more epics to your project by click on the Edit Project button at the top of your board. Once your project is ready, it's time to navigate to monday AI work platform.
Merging portoflio from dev to monday AI work platform
When you would like to merge your dev project into the AI work platform, open your workspace and then the portfolio you'd like to add it to.
Creating a new portfolio
If you need to add a new portfolio, you can do so by clicking on the + sign button next to your workspace and clicking on Portfolio under the Add new section of the dropdown menu:
Name the portfolio and then click on continue:
On the following screen, you'll be asked to configure details of your project. When you're done, click on Create:
Once you have created your portfolio, click on Add project and then select the dev project you want to add:
Once the project loads, it will be added to your portfolio as seen below:
Note: There is a one-way sync between the two projects, in the direction going from monday dev to AI Work Platform. That means that any changes made on the project board will not affect the epics board.
Now you can enjoy the benefits of seamless integration and teamwork across monday products!
