Business Meeting: Prioritizing a Customer Feature Request | 顧客要望の対応優先度を決める会議

【会話の概要】 Sales, support, engineering, and product discuss customer's request for a fix to its bulk-review workflow. They weigh the customer's productivity impact and a potential add-on deal against existing priorities and the risk of a broad change. The team agrees on an investigation deadline and customer updates, then checks for any remaining concerns before closing. 営業、サポート、エンジニアリング、製品の各担当者が、顧客からの一括レビュー機能の修正要望について話し合います。顧客の生産性への影響やアドオン商談への懸念と、既存の優先事項や広範な変更のリスクを比較し、調査と顧客への報告の期限を決めます。最後に、残っている課題や懸念がないか確認し、各担当者が特にないと答えてから会議を締めくくります。 【主な単語】 ・workaround: 一時的な代替策 Definition: A temporary method that lets users continue working while the underlying issue remains unresolved. Example: The workaround lets analysts continue reviewing cases, but it adds time to their work. ・selection state: 選択状態 Definition: Information about which items a user has selected in an interface.

Example: A regression in another review flow would make a rushed patch unacceptable. ・acceptance criteria: 受け入れ基準 Definition: Conditions that a change must satisfy to be considered complete and acceptable.
