Live Demo
 Scenario #1: Before creating project area, the admin Bruce adds
“Deploys pre-defined reports to the project area” follow-up action in the
JUnit process template.
 Scenario #2: Bill as a product owner, he got some new version
templates. Now he wants to update the current templates with the new
version
(com.ibm.team.examples.reports.common_2.0.1.I200909101552).
 Scenario #3: Bill wants to take a look at the “Work Items by Owner”
report to know the current project status. He creates this report from the
“Work Items by Owner” template, and views it in RTC, WebUI, and adds
the report in his dashboard.
 Scenario #4: Bill wants to get some more information for workitems, but
current report template can not support it (assume). Bill will develop the
report by himself and deploy it into Jazz repository.
