მე ვფიქრობ, რომ ბევრი ჩვენგანი დროდადრო საჩუქრად, გამო უკეთესი ფრაზა, ახალგაზრდა ბავშვზე მოთხოვნებს. საბოლოო მომხმარებლის ნამდვილად, ძალიან ცუდად სურს გარკვეული კონკრეტული სახე და ვგრძნობთ, ან ძალიან კონკრეტული დახარისხება სტრუქტურის ან შემცირება ერთი დაჭერით ან მენიუს ვარიანტი განმუხტვის ნავიგაცია ან [insert passionately held belief that happens to be wrong]. As SharePoint pro’s, we can generally meet almost any kind of requirement with the platform, but for some of them, we know in our hearts that:
- They are going to take a disproportionate amount of time to implement (and therefore cost more)
- They are going to be highly custom and therefore difficult to maintain and troubleshoot
- There is is some easy SharePoint approach that meets 80% or more of the requirement (i.e. meets the sprit of the requirement, but not the letter of the requirement)
ქვედა ხაზი, we know that the “requirement” is really just a nice to have or even legitimate in some sense, but something that people should live with rather than spend a lot of time trying to “solve.”
I think of these as “young child” requirements because I’ve seen this pattern many times before. Kids will pine away and nag you for some new toy for weeks at a time. You get them the toy, they play with it for a few hours or days and then put it down, never to pick it up ever again. ან, you don’t get the toy, the nagging stops and the kid moves on to become President of the free world. I’ve seen this happen in SharePoint projects. Decision makers either get what they want and it becomes an unused or underused function or they don’t get what they want and the project still succeeds anyway.
I was reminded of that today in a forum post and I liked how Clayton Cobb tried to get the forum poster to push back on one of these kinds of requirements: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sharepointinfopath/thread/af8a1941-92ad-4f1a-b1bf-875e28ea79b7/
I’m really curious how people view this topic and how you deal with it. Am I missing the point? Do you have strategies to steer decisions makers away from overinvesting in trivial requirements? Please leave a comment.
