Scope of the Work Plan Hierarchical View application

This application aim is to provide a tool which allows a hierarchical organisation of Work Items, this by displaying WIs from theETSI work programme in a tree view. The tree will be constituted of "nodes" and "leaves". The "nodes" are topics, their positions define the hierarchical structure, but these "nodes" do not contain any work programme data. The "leaves" are Work Items from the ETSI work programme and are hierarchically attached to the "nodes".

This hierarchical system can be used for:

• Organizing and managing work items

• Providing a better understanding of the relations between WIs

• Handling work areas across multiple ETSI Technical Bodies

• Displaying WI project part of a Work plan in a GANTT chart style view.

Definition of roles and access rights

• Coordinating Editors

The Coordinating Editor can update and delete the nodes for which he has been granted update rights as well as any node descending from one of his nodes. He can attach/detach leaves (Work Items) to/from his nodes as well as to/from any node descending from one of his nodes. He can only create a new node under one of his nodes or under a node descending from one of his nodes.

• Tree Authors

The Author has the same access/update rights as the Coordinating Editors and he can also change the Work Plan attributes (except the tree depth). He can also manage the Coordinating Editors.

• Tree Owner

The tree owner has the same rights as Authors and he can delete a tree he owes (flag as hidden). He can also manage the Authors and can change the Work Plan Owner.
