"What's in a Name? That Which We Call a 'Project' by Any Other Name Would Smell as Sweet"
Enterprise Agile Planning
With apologies to William Shakespeare / couldn't resist, Bill ol' chap...
So / what is a Project in VersionOne? Is it a Product, a Project or a Release? Is it a Portfolio, a Program or a Group? The answer is / YES!
A Project in VersionOne, in simplest terms, is a repository / a backlog for work/related items. As part of a tree hierarchy, this asset can be used to capture work items that pertain to an organization's software portfolio (e.g., initiatives, features), a software program (features, themes), a software product (components, epics) or software releases (epics, user stories). Items within a Project are organized, prioritized, ranked and scheduled for execution and delivery. Let's briefly analyze the graphic below, a sample Project Tree.
