Notes
1. Save a new MS Excel file
2. In Cells A1, B1, and C1 set up titles
3. Indicate the features with ID numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5
4. Insert enough rows for the backlog items or user stories under each feature.
5. Under each feature insert the backlog items and assign an ID number that ties it to the feature.
For example student add would be ID 1.1, Student Modify would be 1.2, and Student delete
would be 1.3.
6. Set priorities for each backlog item. I arbitrarily set the priorities shown above.
Sort Backlog Items by Priroty
