01. Slide Publisher Introduction

Create Program, Project or portfolio-centric presentations using your organization’s corporate branding with data from AdaptiveWork.

The Slide Publisher is an add-on in Microsoft PowerPoint, and with built-in templates or your own, it's easy to create slides with real-time data from AdaptiveWork.

Templates can be created for Program, Project, or Customer as the main entity, in a single slide or with repeating slides for sub-projects.

Benefits

  • Produce branded, executive-quality PowerPoint presentations using your AdaptiveWork data to share with executives and customers.
  • Using Slide Publisher's PowerPoint add-on, you can insert placeholder tags into any pre-designed PowerPoint presentation, which are replaced with real time AdaptiveWork data every time you publish your presentation.
  • Save time and effort creating documents manually.

Terminology

  • Field - Any field from the Program or Project entity, including your custom fields.
  • List - Program/Project’s related items (such as risks or milestones), which can be presented in a table as a list of items and their selected properties.
  • Roadmap - An image of the project’s roadmap embedded in the slide.
  • Placeholder - A tag with the field name that is used as a placeholder to be replaced with actual values from AdaptiveWork, once the presentation is generated.
  • Repeating/Single Slide
    • Single Slide allows you to bring data from the Program or Project level and its related items.
    • Repeating slides allows you to build a template for bringing in data from sub projects and creates unique slides accordingly.
