All Programs, EPICs and Features start with E-##### It would be beneficial to have Programs be P-####, Epics - E-####, Features F-#####.

This would make it easier to pull data and analytics, better overall reporting, easy in visual identification of levels, cleaner dashboard, looking for nesting that causes reporting problems.

  • The reason they start with 'E' is because they are all considered a portfolio item (previously called Epic) in Agility. The type field is what signifies a feature, capability, etc. Since the ID is unique we can't keep updating it when someone changes the type from say a feature to an epic. This would cause issues with reporting and API usage.
