Good to know about the Create Kaizen window
The required fields are Title, Project Lead, Project Type and Methodology.
Admins can use Show fields to hide fields or make them required, so the form you see may differ.
After creating the Kaizen, you can add labels and record hard and soft savings in the Result/Benefit section.
Due-date changes are tracked on the Kaizen dashboard in the Revised Due Date column.
