How to generate business requirements
In order to generate business requirements (epics), simply click on an activity box or, to generate multiple records, select multiple activities (you can do that by pressing 'command' button on Apple or Control on Microsoft computers). A floating toolbar will appear. Select the 'magic wand' icon and from the dropdown choose 'Generate business requirements'.
💡 If custom fields are required on your business requirements, a modal window will appear prompting you to fill in those fields before proceeding.
