Modules
Introduction
Modules are reusable building blocks for creating scenarios. A scenario consists of several modules. A module can be used in several scenarios.
A module contains the thematically related tasks and outcomes, as well as the roles involved.
Figure 20 shows the modules in the context of the service/product scenario.
HERMES contains all modules required for standard scenarios. In addition, users can create organization-specific modules to form individual scenarios.

Module descriptions
Explanation regarding the module description
For each module, there is a module description that is always structured in the same way:
-
What has to be done
Description of the module tasks in the overall context of the module -
Tasks
Tabular division of tasks according to project phases, with the decision tasks highlighted in pink -
