Components Created for Planning Element Types

As you create element types, corresponding components are also created within Accolade.

• Active Non-Gated Class - Accolade adds a non-gated class with the Show and Create options selected. If you need to remove an element type from Innovation Planning, either clear the Create check box, deactivate the class, or delete the class from Accolade. Elements created using the type are not deleted. See Classes to Group Process Models Overview for more information.
• Non-Gated Model - A non-gated model that uses the class created. See Process Models Overview for more information.

If Innovation Planning is enabled, a default class and model (both named [Innovation Planner Default]) are included in Accolade.

Administrators and Process Designers can also create classes that add element types to Innovation Planning. For example, for element types that represent projects, a gated model might be more appropriate so a project is created where the project management flow and activities can be tracked and updated using Accolade.

In the class configuration, include the following Planning settings:

• Create - Creates an associated element type with the same name as the class in Innovation Planning.
• Show - Displays an element for any project created using the model associated with this class in Innovation Planning. You can select this option to include these projects in Planning without selecting Create, however Planners will not be able to create elements using the element type.
