The document is a version‑controlled change request (v4.0) from Storyboard Multimedia for the Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC) National Variety Trials (NVT) system. It details three primary enhancements to the Bulk Trial Ratings page: (1) correcting the sort order to be numeric rather than alphabetical, (2) adding a read‑only "Most Recent Rating" column that displays the latest rating value for each trial, and (3) providing an "Export to Excel" function that outputs trial and rating details. The request includes UI wireframes (AS‑IS and TO‑BE), comprehensive business rules (including role‑based filtering of TSP, Breeder, and NVT Admin ratings), the exact Excel file layout (title rows, trial detail columns, rating detail sections), and associated impacts on test cases and user guides. A quote outlines 78 total resource hours across development, testing, QA, and deployment, with no identified risks and a 30‑day warranty. Approval status shows the request is open and under investigation but not yet approved by GRDC.
