Initiating the Default Timeline

The default All Release Trains timeline is created the first time it is accessed by an administrative user. This enables the display of Timeline Editor and Timeline Manager.

To create the timeline:

1. Log into Work Center as an administrative user.
2. Expand Release Trains in the navigation pane and then select Timeline.
3. Do not click any buttons, but click away from and back to Timeline two or three times until you see All Release Trains in the upper left of the content area. This indicates that the timeline data has been successfully loaded into the database. The timeline will be populated with release trains if any already exist.

Continue as follows:

• If you want to use the default timeline, you do not need to do any further configuration. You can use the All Release Trains timeline as-is.
• If you want to change the element settings or reports for the timeline, click the Edit button to invoke Timeline Editor and change the settings.
• If you want to add timelines, you must use Timeline Manager.
