A product needs to be planned and set priorities. Therefore, it is necessary for product managers to do plannings.
- For product managers, release plan will help them to plan, set and adjust the priorities of stories.
- For co-workers from other departments and external clients, the release plan will help them know the progress of product development, thus arrange their work accordingly.
- Plans can help linking stories, if you want to link stories to a project.

With ZenTao 11.3+, Child Plan has been added. You can create a child plan and link Story and Bug to it. You can also create a Project for a Child Plan, and link stories to develop to it.
Note: 1. Story/Bug can only be linked to one Plan, either a Parent Plan or a Child Plan. If you link a story/bug which has been linked to a parent plan to a child plan, the story/bug will be removed from the parent plan. 2. In the Plan List, the number of stories and the number of bugs are the sumup of stories/bugs that have been linked to the parent plan and child plans.
2. Link to story
After creating a plan, you can link it to stories. You can find the Link button in Actions.
You can also click the plan and link to stories in the detailed page.
You can also link stories to plans when adding a Story (overdue plans will not be listed).
