Clarity
Enterprise Work Tracking, Sprint Management, and Team Collaboration

Powerful Work Management and Collaboration
Clarity is a robust workflow-based tracking and reporting system that allows you to manage all your work items in a controlled, highly flexible
environment. It allows you to track all your tasks and their associated data such as files, images, etc., and ensures that the workflow you have defined for those tasks is followed.
Clarity's document management and collaboration features provide a facility for you to store everything from team meeting notes and ongoing discussion, to policy documentation and feature
design decisions. The sprint management and reporting features let you easily manage, prioritize, and report on all sprint activity so you can stay on top of the work in real time and accurately predict
work completion. Whether your development teams are small or large, work from a central office or work remotely, Clarity will increase the efficiency, flexibility, capability,
and productivity of your development teams.

Clarity provides true workflow-based tracking of all work items. You can create any number of custom workflows to suit your needs, and they are associated with the work items of a specific type for a product. The work items are transitioned through their associated workflows as the work is performed. The workflow for work items cannot be circumvented so all tracked items are always in a valid state. |
Product-Oriented Workflow Schemas Workflow schemas associate work item types (customer bug, enhancement request, etc.) with the workflow that defines how work items of that type are processed. Your products (your application deliverables) have a workflow schema assigned to them. This allows each of your products to have their own specification of which item types are tracked and what workflows are used for those item types. |

Clarity provides complete product definition support. Product definitions specify the subcomponents a product is dependent upon, which provide both a formal documentation of those dependencies as well complete and accurate product roadmap reporting. Product definitions allow you to know exactly what work is contained in a release of a product, including all its subcomponents, so you always have a complete and accurate project status. |
All work assigned to and targeted for a particular product release is tracked for the product and all its subcomponents. This allows you to immediately see all the work involved in a product release including all the work that other teams may be doing in the subcomponent hierarchy as well. Clarity shows you the entire scope of work involved in the release so nothing gets missed. |

|
Sprint Management and Reporting Managing sprints in Clarity is easy and straight forward. From defining the work items involved in the sprint, to prioritizing and estimating time to completion, to reporting on current status and performance, everything is easily managed with Clarity's intuitive interface. |
Searching for content in other systems can be frustrating or even impossible, and often requires you to type in SQL to retrieve results. In Clarity finding content, even with very complex searches, is done with just a few clicks in the user interface. You can search on any content in the database and you can save your search queries as named searches for future use. |
|
|
Advanced Reporting and Charting Clarity gives you a host of reports and charts to keep on top of everything from product release and sprint completion, to product work roadmapping, to in-depth analysis of work performance and system utilization. You can quickly spot work bottlenecks and inefficiencies so you can help your teams improve. |
Personal dashboards give you an instant overview of the status of the content you are interested in so you can stay on top of things. Any chart in Clarity can be added to your dashboard so you can see where things are at a glance. |
|
|
Only Clarity gives you true project status reporting, including not only the project itself but the status of all the subcomponents the project depends on. Most work management systems only report on the status of the project alone, leaving you unaware of the risks those subcomponents may present to the project. |
System Activity and Insight Reporting Clarity allows you to report on your activity, the activity for specific users and products, as well as the activity for the entire system. These give you insight into how well individuals and teams are doing, as well as how departments and the overall organization as a whole are processing the work load. |
|
|
Item Watches and Notifications You can easily set up watches on items so you can be notified when anything about that item occurs, such as a transition to a specific step in the workflow, or when it is edited or a comment or question is entered for it. Clarity also allows you to set up specific users to be notified when any item is transitioned to a specific step in the workflow. |
Collaboration and Documentation Clarity provides a powerful collaboration facility where you can discuss and share information with other team members, organize and store your own private notes and other documentation, and receive notification of important events and activity. |
|
|
Tight Integration with Source Reliance Clarity is tightly integrated with Source Reliance giving you a depth of knowledge about your source code, development processes and workflow not available in any other system. All information about your development activity from the highest level all the way down to the individual lines of code that comprise that work is at your fingertips. |
All Clarity content is secured using group policy. User access to all work item content, as well as all collaboration topic content is controlled by setting access rights for groups and assigning users to those groups. |
