In this sense, the overarching series of steps to complete the project life cycle is the project workflow. Within this overarching workflow will be sub-sets of workflows to move through a particular phase.
Phase - A stage gate or section of a project lifecycle.
Input - A product or deliverable required to initiate a process
Process - a series of steps or actions that need to be performed to transform the inputs into the desired outputs.
Output - A tangible and verifiable product or deliverable required to mark the completion of a process
Business rules - the logic or decision that needs to be made during a process
Outcome - the result, achievements or effect of producing an output
In UniPhi, a methodology library is created. The structure of this library is folders, flowcharts and library pages. Included within a library page is links to templates. Templates are a separate component of the system and will be covered later in the course.
