    A playbook defines the standard stages of a demand (for example, Initiation, Planning, Execution, Monitoring, and Closure) and includes activities or action items to complete at each stage.

    주:
    The playbook presents demand information in a guided, stage-based workflow. The same fields and lists are also available in the Details page of the demand record. You can update demand information from either location, and changes made in one are reflected in the other.
    This task topic follows the demand AI playbook. It’s a standard playbook comprising the following seven stages:
    • Create demand brief
    • Define demand alignment
    • Estimate demand cost and effort
    • AI checkpoint
    • Confirm demand readiness for review
    • Approve and finalize demand
    • Complete demand
    Demand default playbook stages.
    주:
    The AI checkpoint stage is available if the AI Control Tower plugin is installed and the investment type of the demand is set to artificial intelligence.
    Each stage consists of activities, action items, or steps that guide the demand manager in successfully completing the demand. You can view the Playbook menu only if the demand matches the trigger condition defined for that playbook.
    주:
    • A demand created in Next Experience for Demand Management opens in the playbook page.
    • If you want to view the playbook for an existing demand from classic UI, make an edit to the demand in Next Experience for Demand Management. Then the playbook is available for the updated demand.

    1. Navigate to Workspaces > Portfolio Planning Workspace > Demands.
    2. Open an existing demand or create a demand.
      For more information on creating demands, refer to Create a demand.
    3. Use the default playbook or create or customize one.
      • To use the default playbook:
        1. Select Playbooks from the L-2 (level 2) navigation menu.
        2. Select a stage to view its activities. Each activity displays its status (In Progress, Pending, or Complete) and the fields or lists to update.
          주:
          The default playbook is a stage-gate playbook, that is, a stage is unlocked only when its prior stages are marked as completed or skipped.
        3. Complete the activities within each stage. For more information, see Demand default playbook stages and activities.
        4. For each activity, perform one of the following actions:
          • Select Mark Complete to mark the activity as done and move to the next activity.
          • Select Save to save your progress without completing the activity.
          • Select Skip to bypass the activity and move to the next one.
        주:
        • An activity becomes read-only when you select Mark Complete or Skip.
        • A stage is marked as completed once all activities within it are either completed or skipped.
        • Use the Restart option (available at both the activity and stage levels) to revisit or edit completed or skipped activities.
        • Some stages include an automated task that advances the demand state when all activities in the stage are completed. These automated tasks don’t require manual action.
      • To create a playbook, define the trigger condition in Workflow Studio. For more information, see Triggers.
