hovedfunktionerne

Hovedfunktionerne is a term used in Danish to denote the main functions or core capabilities of a system, product, organization, or project. It refers to the essential tasks that must be supported for the entity to fulfill its purpose.

In software development and product design, hovedfunktionerne describe the core features that define the product and differentiate it. They guide design decisions, architecture, and prioritization. The term is often used alongside requirements and non-functional requirements.

Documentation and process: The hovedfunktionerne are typically captured in a feature list, a requirements document, or a feature tree. They are used to scope development, communicate to stakeholders, and serve as a baseline for testing.

Examples: For a mobile banking app, hovedfunktionerne may include secure login, balance display, funds transfer, transaction history, and security features. For a municipal service portal: account management, service search, application submission, status tracking, notifications.

Evaluation and lifecycle: The identification of hovedfunktionerne occurs early in project planning, refined during design, and validated through user testing. Changes may be managed via change control with stakeholder review.
