Dataloader [NEW] |
Use JTIGs as Resources in Work Plan (enabled in all Sandboxes) Dataloader allows to upload an entire work plan with user resources. This new capability will allow to include JTIG type of resources in the upload of a work plan via dataloader.
|
Group Job Title Administration |
Creation of JTIGs (enabled in all Sandboxes) The creation of Group Job title is ONLY available from the Job Title and Group modules. It means that you are no longer managing Group Job title from the "Add Group Member" popup from the Project Work Plan or Resource load/planning views. |
Resource Planning |
Idle Time in Assignment Edits (to be enabled upon request) The idle time for updates in Resource Planning can now be adjusted, allowing more time for selecting and manually updating staffing requests and/or project/task assignments per resource per time phases before data is sent to the database and thus providing an enhanced user experience. |
Resource Management |

Project & Milestone Templates |
NLR time-phased data (enabled in all Sandboxes) Users can save Non Labor Resource (NLR) time-phased financial data with new project and/or milestone templates. These templates can then be used to apply NLR financial data to new projects and milestones. |

License Administration |
We are introducing a new license type 'External Collaborator', alongside Full, Team Member and Requester licenses. Assigning an External Collaborator license to a user, will automatically set that user as external user and will prevent this users to be granted with special permissions and/or set a default workflow user.

Removal of 'Buy New Licenses' button |
Licenses, Add-Ons and Services are typically being purchased & provisioned by your respective Account Executive, based on your negotiated contract terms & conditions. The Buy New Licenses button will therefore be removed from the Admin menu in the People module and no longer be available for Admins to purchase from. |
