A board pack is what your Steering Committee is given for a quarter: the Epics whose reports were
finalised in time, and the Epics that had not filed. `Report > Board packs` lists them. This
appears only when it is turned on for your organisation.

Only the Epics you can read are named, on the page and in every pack you open.

## Generate a pack

1. Go to `Board packs`.
2. Under `Quarters`, open a quarter. `This quarter as it stands` shows what a pack generated now would
   name. It moves as reports are finalised and reopened.
3. Check `Epics that have not filed`.
4. Generate the pack.

Nothing generates a pack on its own. Quarters appear here once an administrator opens them on
`Reporting cycles`.

## Find an earlier pack

`Packs generated` lists every pack: its `Quarter`, when it was `Generated` and by whom, and
`What went in` (how many Epics filed, and each Epic's report revision). Select
`Download the pack` to download one.
