Locking Monthly Data

We are introducing a new capability to lock monthly project data to prevent changes to items such as: Timesheets, Non-Labor Resources, Resource Assignments and Cost and Billing Rates. 

This capability ensures that previously stated costs and revenues remain unchanged, and more accurate forecasts can be produced.

Retain Resource Capacity when Filtering Reports

In the September 11th Release we introduced a new behavior when Capacity Time Phased Data is used in Reports. This change will be introduced for all customers as General Availability in January 2023 as part of our quarterly release, but it is currently available on request for customers with sandbox environments. 

There are three main changes:

  1. Filters using Labor or Staff Time Phased Data fields will no longer filter out resources shown in the Report. Only the Labor or Staff Time Phased Data included in the report will be affected.
  2. Resource Capacity in time periods where resources are not assigned to work items will no longer be excluded from the report.
  3. Advanced logic filters will only support definitions for fields from Labor or Staff Time Phased Data. Filters on User, Group or Capacity fields will be applied to the Advanced logic filter using the "and" operator. Any attempt to use the fields in the Advanced logic will be prevented.

Manually set action

Coming January 2023!

To improve usability, avoid unnecessary calculations, and achieve consistency with all field types and the different editor modes on how "Manually Set" is defined, we are modifying how fields are manually set.
We are adding a "Set" option to all Editor Modes, to allow users to easily set a value in a field as "Manually Set."

With Microsoft Teams and Slack being the de facto standard tools for online team communications, the decision has been taken to invest in product integrations with Microsoft Teams and Slack, and sunset the legacy chat component, which is not being used. 

Walkme Deprecation

As of January 1, 2023, the Walkme integrated solution, its associated UI buttons, System Settings (2.6; 2.7) and in-app tooltips will be removed and no longer be available.
