Product planning in V1: Agile Enterprise enables the entire range of agile product planning activities:
- Requirements Management of stories that introduce new features or describe product enhancements
- Requests from customers, sales, or other external stakeholders for new or enhanced features
- Epics or large-feature breakdown and tracking through releases or among teams
- Goals that meet strategic business or financial targets within or across projects
- Feature groups or themes that roll-up progress against functionally related items that may span sprints or projects
- Defect Management to assign and track defects to correct an identified problem
- Issues or impediments that could impact project delivery

Ranking: Easily Identifying the Highest-Value Features
Sequentially prioritize stories and defects from a business perspective in a consolidated backlog using either simple drag-and-drop or multi-select functionality that lets you move numerous items simultaneously. A single ordered ranking helps identify which features are the most valuable for all stakeholders and should be delivered first.

Epics: Breaking Down Large Features
Simplify initial planning by defining and prioritizing large-grained features. As the team gets closer to working on the items, break these large features down into smaller backlog items, which are linked back to the higher-level story. Breaking epics into smaller stories allows them to be more easily spread across projects, releases, iterations, and teams.

Themes: Tracking Feature Groups Across Projects
Themes are functional rollups of stories and/or defects that are primarily used to track progress for a specified set of features. Feature groups can also be filtered for planning and tracking purposes.

Goals: Aligning Work with Strategic Objectives
Goals are measurable financial, customer-driven or other project-related targets teams can set up during product planning. Teams can map their project work to these strategic targets to help them prioritize features, while executives can understand which projects are supporting organizational goals.
