Interested in trying Wrike’s release plan template for yourself? Just follow these three simple steps to get started.

Step 1: Break down your release plan into phases

From your Wrike homepage, enter the “Release Plan” Space to view your tools. Select the one marked “Backlog Release Project Dashboard” on the left-hand side.  

Here, you can break down your release plan into phased projects and tasks, sorted by their due dates. You can also keep your deferred projects separate to prioritize more urgent tasks.

Step 2: Visualize your plan, phases, and sprints

Get a 360° view of your plan with Wrike’s product release template. Use the “Release Calendar” tool to display your phases, projects, and scheduled release dates in a calendar format, color-coded for urgency. 

Alternatively, select the “Sprint Dashboard” to keep an eye on your active and archived sprint projects. 

Step 3: Keep all your work in one safe place

In the “Projects and Folders” section, you’ll find a “Release Backlog” folder. There, all the projects that were added to the folder will appear, along with their statuses and additional details. 

You can add a new item, too, in case it’s not in another space. Archive completed or paused projects in the “Deferred” folder for future use.
