Example: Master Panel Feature

## Overview
Full create, read, update, delete functionality for Master Panel BOM records. Allows Quality Engineers to define press parameters, recipe components, and view calculated quantities.

## Persona(s)
- Quality Engineer (primary)
- Production Manager (secondary)

## MoSCoW Priority
Must Have

## Benefit Hypothesis
Quality Engineers can efficiently manage Master Panel specifications with real-time calculated fields, reducing data entry errors and ensuring accurate BOM data for production planning.

## Deliverables
- [ ] Master Panel form with 4 collapsible sections
- [ ] Real-time calculation engine for all computed fields
- [ ] Save/Save & Exit/Delete functionality
- [ ] Stock Code lookup integration with SysPro
- [ ] Form validation with error messages
- [ ] Unit tests for all calculations

## User Stories

### US1: Select Route
**As a** Quality Engineer, **I want to** select a Route from a dropdown, **so I can** categorize the BOM type

**Acceptance Criteria:**
SCENARIO: Route dropdown displays valid options
GIVEN I am on the Master Panel form
WHEN I click the Route dropdown
THEN I see options from BomRoute where JobsAllowed='Y'
AND options show Route code and Description

**Fields:**
| Field | Type | Unit | Editable | Source/Formula |
|-------|------|------|----------|----------------|
| Route | Dropdown | - | Yes | BomRoute (JobsAllowed='Y') |

**Measure:** Dropdown loads within 500ms
**Proof:** TC1: Verify all valid routes appear; TC2: Verify invalid routes excluded

---

### US2: Define Press Parameters
**As a** Quality Engineer, **I want to** define Press Parameters, **so I can** specify board dimensions and density

Workflow

1. Identify the Feature scope - What screen or capability?
2. Determine Feature type - Screen-based or Enabler?
3. Set metadata - Owner, Area, Iteration, MoSCoW
4. Write benefit hypothesis - Why does this matter?
5. List deliverables - What's produced when done?
6. Decompose into User Stories - One per UI component
7. Document each User Story - AMP acceptance criteria
8. Add technical notes - Dependencies, data sources, UI requirements

Tips

• One Feature per screen - Keep Features focused
• Enablers support Features - Don't orphan technical work
• Deliverables are concrete - Not "implement feature" but "form with 4 sections"
• User Stories from components - Each button, section, dropdown = potential story
• Include formulas - Document calculations in acceptance criteria
• Reference data sources - Specify tables, APIs, collections for dropdowns
