Requirements Gathering
Scoping  
Before the project even starts you need a good understanding of the high level requirements for what the application to do. Learn how we do it.
Sizer Training
User Stories  
Requirements should be captured as User Stories to improve team communication, help learn the customer’s “language” and to capture the reasons for delivering the requirement at hand.
You can see it’s  definition.
Good techniques on how to capture user stories can be found on the OutSystems Requirements Gathering Workshop, and you can also check the practical guide.
Solution Modeling
High level Solution Architecture  
A very high level solution architecture will help you to understand what user roles you will have, what are the major modules, and what integrations will be required.
