Elements Checklist can be used in many situations. If you want to break down tasks but don't need all the workflow & status mechanisms of issues or sub-tasks, Elements Checklist is the perfect option.

This section lists the most common uses of Elements Checklist, but its flexibility means Elements Checklist can be used in many more processes.

Expense reports

Managers can use Elements Checklist to track expense reports submitted by their team.

Everything is setup to let the employee track all the required information:

Expense type
Receipt
Amount (in both original and local currency)
Currency

Amounts are converted to the local currency, totals are automatically computed, managers can approve expenses one by one.

Follow your employees onboarding process

Let's say you are managing your new employees' onboarding process. You are already using Elements Checklist to list these tasks, but you are tired of always typing the same information:

if it's an Atlassian consultant, then we need to schedule these trainings;
...

Development tasks

Software development team can use Elements Checklist to split a Story in tasks.

In this example, the developer is asked to enter an estimate for each task.

Test scenarios

Order of material

With Elements Checklist, IT Managers can track material order.

When a manager needs new material for his team, within a single issue he can build his purchasing list:

Reference
Employee
Quantity

Then, the IT manager can complete the list by setting a unit price for each material - totals are automatically computed - and then the manager can give the final approval.

As Elements Checklist panels are fully searchable in JQL, thus it is possible to build dashboard to track expenses per global amount or to add constraint to the workflow.
