    Prioritize and roadmap Boards in portfolio plans

    Prioritize and roadmap CWM Boards in the portfolio plan in the form of planning items. If the dates of your CWM Board match with the portfolio plan, you can visualize the scheduling for the Board on the roadmap and also track its progress.

    You can associate a Board to a Strategic Initiative or Department, to determine the portfolio plan that the Board gets added to.

    For more information, see Prioritize work in Strategic Planning and Track the progress of your roadmap items in Strategic Planning Workspace.
