An issue is any "action item" within an organization assigned to specific individuals. Each issue is comprised of fields which include:
Issues in a TO-DO list can be sorted by their priority, by their status, or by the due date. Issues appear on a TO-DO list based on an individual's role within the organization. (Currently, the WISE workflow process and issue fields are fixed. We are working on a programming language to customize WISE forms for ANY work process).
From the TO-DO list, you may also view project metrics. The WISE system keeps track of changes to issues and other project events. WISE collects metrics based on these events and presents graphical views of project statistics. For example, issues cycle from the open state, to the fixed state, and finally become closed issues. Project managers can view the current number of open vs. closed issues at any time in a project's lifecycle.
Currently, the WISE demos
are best viewed using NetScape version 1.1. If are blinking, then your WWW browser should be powerful
enough to use WISE.
