Jama Connect Help

In Jama Connect, the Categories feature allows you to organize and view cross-project items based on classifications. Examples of classifications include configurations, allocations, releases, and features.

Use the Categories feature to manage product variants in Jama Connect. For example, you might have a product that differs from other versions of the same product, such as size, color, material, or style. You might have variants based on customers, market, or product features. Once you define the product variants, you can create the categories and apply them to items.

You can assign cross-project items like requirements, test cases, and use cases to customer-defined groupings. According to your project needs, you can assign a single category or multiple categories.

The Categories feature is disabled by default. The organization admin must enable it before the option appears in Jama Connect. Once the feature is enabled, users with read/write permissions can make edits. For more information, see Enable categories.

Your role determines your interactions when you use the Categories feature.
