FOLIO contains all needed components to monitor the statuses of a project or group of projects. All project managers must juggle with time, scope and budget; the well-known constraint triangle.

FOLIO will help you with those critical aspects by let you establish a budget, define a scope and a time frame.

First time in FOLIO

The first time you log in FOLIO, the getting started page will be displayed and you will be able to create your first portfolio from this screen. 

Click from FOLIO Menu > Getting Started and follow the instructions.

 

Thereafter in FOLIO

You can create a portfolio by using the Tool Cog () and by selecting the Create item. Note that the Tool Cog is available in all FOLIO pages.

 

How to create a portfolio

Two different approaches are available when you create a portfolio:

Preset

Use this approach when the scope of the portfolio is based on one or more existing projects in JIRA. To select more than one project, click the arrow again of the project field and select a second project name and then a third etc.

Promote this approach to include the entire issues from one or more projects.

Note that FOLIO will create a saved filter based on the selected project(s), the newly saved filter will be named like this "Filter for Portfolio : YOUR_FOLIO_NAME - 1"

Advanced

Use this approach when the scope of the portfolio is based on an existing JIRA saved filters. A JIRA filter helps to regroup issues with specific characteristics from one or more projects

Promote this approach to include selected issues from one or more projects

Portfolio Name 

Use whatever you want for your Portfolio name (special characters, numbers, etc. are allowed).
There is no special requirement in the naming convention of a portfolio.

Start Date

This is the date from which you want to start reporting expenses and positions in a portfolio.

Note that this date has no impact on the date of issues you have in the JIRA project or the saved filter.
To limit the JIRA project scope, set a restriction on dates in your JIRA saved filter. 

End Date

This is the date the portfolio ends. This is a critical date since it gives the pace of progress the team
should maintain to successfully complete the portfolio scope.

Note that this date has no impact on the date of issues you have in the JIRA project or saved filter.
To limit the JIRA project scope, set a restriction on dates in your JIRA saved filter.
