Creating Epics from CWM

Tom Sienkiewicz

Hi Everyone,

 

I would like to understand the possibility of working with epics from CWM.

I am familiar with the KB: KB2675470  explaining the current limitations.

Our use case is we would like to start just by rolling out CWM to replace Agile 2.0, for our teams who work with Epics/Stories. We would ideally like to not include EAP, save for teams who really require the more advanced team structure and the scaled agile ways of working.

 

What is the intended purpose of "Create new Epic" button on CWM workspace if this does not in fact create an Epic under the hood. Is it assumed that EAP will always be used to create Epics and then people will have to switch from EAP to CWM to continue work? TBH it is not very user friendly to try to create an Epic from CWM today and not see anything appear on the board. 

Is ServiceNow planning to somehow enable "proper" creation of Epics through CWM, in a way that those could still be aligned with EAP?

 

Is the bottom line that you CANNOT use CWM without using EAP at the same time? I'd like to have clarity on this before we customize a lot of CWM...

Many thanks for any feedback on this,

Tom
