Managing multiple Product Backlogs under one Project area in RTC
We have Project area created in RTC and we have multiple collaborated products under that and we plan to have Separate Product Backlogs for each one of them to Rank our User stories. We have created 2 separate team areas who works on these products.
Is there a way we can have multiple product backlog plans created in RTC to manage? Also do we need to have separate timelines (sprints/iterations with Backlog) for each and every product?
Want to know if anyone implemented RTC to manage multiple products under single project area following Agile Scrum. Are there any recommendations or best practices?
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Teja
This should be possible. You can set the time line for a Team area and the team area will be following that time line. You can create a backlog Iteration for each of the timeline and use it for your product backlog.We also have a similar scenario you have explained.But we are creating individual project areas for each of the products and we have the consolidated project area.https://jazz.net/jazz/web/projects/Jazz%20Collaborative%20ALM is the consolidated project area.You can check outhttps://jazz.net/jazz/admin#action=com.ibm.team.process.editProjectArea&itemId=_0rSUcMixEd6A25wBGCmItw to see how this project area is configured to talk to different project areas.
https://jazz.net/jazz/web/projects/Rational%20Team%20Concert#action=com.ibm.team.dashboard.viewDashboard is one of the project area under the CLM.
Also if you want to share the process you can extend the process from consolidating project area as well.
