QCD Add-on

4. Lite mode¶

The lite mode allows teams to focus on their rituals by using only the essential features.

Note

This icon qcd-lite-mode appears when the simplified mode is activated.

4.1. Activate the lite mode¶

Note

The lite mode can only be activated by a room administrator.

Refer to the section Roles in iObeya for more information.

From your board, click the QCD utility.
Click Lite mode.
Click the button on the right to activate the lite mode.

4.2. Use the letter tool¶

Note

The lite mode is designed for users of the room with editing rights.

Refer to the section Roles in iObeya for more information.

This is the main tool of QCD: a letter carrying all the data that will be visualized and processed

4.2.1. Display¶

1 -> Letter “full name”, fully customizable in the dock

2 -> Current (short term) time window. Time window is used as a basis for past historical data storage

3 -> Update frequency for current time window. In this example frequency is one week. Depending on the time window, it can be day, week or month

4 -> Number of pending actions related to the letter

5 -> Description

6 -> Box color code : red, orange or green color code depends on the value of indicators related to the ring

7 -> Box related actions

8 -> Box related comments

9 -> Ring names and legend

10 -> Letter character, fully customizable in the dock

When using the lite mode, the contextual menu of the letter offers only the essential features:

1 -> View all opened actions

2 -> Update consolidation

3 -> View settings

4 -> Preview this element

5 -> Display information

4.3. Box colour code and indicator value entry¶

By clicking on a box, a pop-up menu appears. Its content depends on the color coding of the ring the box belongs to.

4.3.1. Box color code¶

If a box corresponds to a day off, it is automatically grayed out. Nonetheless, you can always manually select a color code for your box, if no automatic color coding is enabled
For a box belonging to a ring with manual color coding, you can give the box a color by clicking on it

For other types of box colour coding, the color depends on indicator values.

4.3.2. Indicator value entry¶

Every indicator belongs to a box that belongs to a ring. Every indicator can be entered a value for each box. If the ring color coding is global threshold (overall or single thresholds (per indicator), then the box color will be determined by indicator values.

A mandatory indicator has a star (*) in the middle of its color code pin

Tip

The input of indicators is also accessible from the QCD utility.
