Create a decision page

Inside a project, choose New → Decision Brief. Start with General Product Decision, containing question, background, success conditions, options, and decision.

Write the decision sentence

Define a question that can be completed, such as "Should guest comments be enabled by default in the October release?"

Roles

  • Owner: Maintains the page and pace.
  • Decision maker: Confirms the final choice.
  • Participant: Provides assigned input before the deadline.
  • Observer: Can read, with reminders off by default.
One person can be both owner and decision maker.

Input deadline

Choose a date and time zone. Extensions are recorded in history. Comments remain open afterward and new opinions are marked After Deadline Input.
