## Drafting user stories
Product Designers [draft user stories](https://fleetdm.com/handbook/company/development-groups#drafting) that have been prioritized by PMs. If the estimated user stories for a product group exceed [that group's capacity](https://fleetdm.com/handbook/company/product-groups#current-product-groups), all new design work for that group is paused, and the designer will contribute in other ways (documentation & handbook work, Figma maintenance, QA, etc.) until the PM deprioritizes estimated stories to make room, or until the next sprint begins. (If the designer has existing work-in-progress, they will continue to review and iterate on those designs and see the stories through to estimation.)
If an issue's title or user story summary (_"as a…I want to…so that"_) does not match the intended change being discussed, the designer will move the issue to the "Needs clarity" column of the drafting board and assign the group product manager. The group product manager will revisit ASAP and edit the issue title and user story summary, then reassign the designer and move the issue back to the "Prioritized" column.
## Estimating user stories
Engineering Managers estimate user stories. They are responsible for delivering planned work in the current sprint (0-3 weeks) while quickly getting user stories estimated for the next sprint (3-6 weeks). Only work that is slated to be released into the hands of users within ≤six weeks will be estimated. Estimation is run by each group's Engineering Manager and occurs on the [drafting board](https://app.zenhub.com/workspaces/-product-backlog-coming-soon-6192dd66ea2562000faea25c/board).
