Notable PPM Fixes
Error renaming Dynamic Applications
Since PPM stopped allowing Dynamic Applications (DA) to have the same name, users have experienced errors when attempting to rename their existing DAs. We fixed this bug and users will be able to successfully rename their existing DAs.
Gaps in resource requirements disappearing from workspace requests
When generating a new workspace from a request that has empty fields between resource requirements, the requirements will shift to fill the empty fields in both the workspace and the original request. This shift may have required users to go back and manually re-enter their requirements. This issue no longer occurs, and requirements in workspaces are generated exactly as they were in the original request.
Estimated Work values differ between workspace and custom views
This release fixes a discrepancy between the Estimated Work value displayed on the Project Dashboard and the one displayed in custom views that include Estimated Work. Now, Estimated Work values in custom views will match the values displayed in the actual workspace.
