Working with Value Streams

[aschoijett]

Hi,
I have a few questions about Value Streams.

Q1: How do I configure the Target Emotion?
I can see that the diagram in the Viewer shows it, but I can't find how to enter it in the Value Stage using Protege.
Post-edit: Please ignore this one. I found how to do it.


Q2: How do I add the same vale stage to more than one value stream?

I cannot find a way to reuse a defined Value Stage.
Say that I create 3 Value Streams: VSTR1, VSTR2, and VSTR3
Say that now I create a Value Stage VSTGa

I tried to do this in two ways:
(A) Starting from the VSTR1, add to it VSTGa. That works fine. I then move to VSTR2 and tried to add VSTGa to it. The value stage looks like "moved" from VSTR1 to VSTR2. Value Stream 1 lost the added stage.

(B) Starting from the Value Stage VSTGa, add it to VSTR1. When I try to "add" VSTR2, it looks like it "moves" from VSTR1 to VSTR2.



Q3: How do I represent Value Propositions and Value Items?
The former is the value provided by the Value Stream and the latter is the value provided by the Value Stage.



Q4: Is there a specification of all the fields (slots?) in a Value Stream and in a Value Stage?



Q5: Is there an easy way of uploading this info from an Excel spreadsheet?
The Launchpad does not seem to have a way to import them.


Q6: What is the difference between Index and sequence number?
Index appears when I create a Value Stage, and Sequence appears when I create a the name for that Value Stage.





Many thanks!
