Version DB 39.5.9

Application

Features

  • General
  • R1
    • In the My Activities modules, no locked todo items and risk and opportunity measures of the projects are displayed.
  • R41
    • The new SAP WBS (Application) and Create SAP WBS Elements (Administration) modules have been implemented, which can be used to
      • assign the SAP WBS elements imported from PLANTA link to PLANTA tasks. On this basis, budget, cost, and effort adjustment between SAP and PLANTA project becomes possible.
      • create the alternative project structures. In this case, the creation of the individual elements is done manually.
    • Charts of the Earned Value Analysis in the Status Report module are already displayed before the release of the report.
    • For evaluation and analysis of the project and program opportunities, opportunity matrix diagrams have been implemented in all relevant modules analogously to the risk matrix diagrams (e.g. the Risks/Opportunities module). See also the AddingProbabiltyAndSuccessDimensionDIs_812_872 migration packet.
    • In the Progress module, a new module variant has been added (Costs), in which costs are shown on tasks, and only cost and revenue resources were displayed on resource assignment level.
    • The Project, Idea, Proposal, and Program panels have been streamlined. Several modules have been outsourced to the new Further... module (for projects, ideas, and proposals) or to the Further... module (for programs). Next to the links to the modules of the panels, links to evaluation and overview modules are listed centrally.
    • In the Outline Plan module, the Generate WBS code button has been implemented analogously to that in the Schedule module.
    • Diverse changes have been made to the Schedule module:
      • Changes have been made to module variants.
      • Links on the task ID / WBS code in the Task field have been implemented
      • A Button for generating the WBS code has been implemented.
    • Gates show the intervals to the main milestone in tooltips in the Schedule and Milestone Overview modules for projects, and in the Schedule and Milestone Overview modules for programs. In structured projects with more than 2 levels, only the gates of the main project, and possibly of the program, are displayed.
    • Via the project_parameter_heredity global parameter, you can define whether and which project parameters are inherited from the main project to the subproject when creating a subproject.
    • In the Resource Plan module, some parameters of the resource assignment have been outsourced to the new Resource Plan Complete module variant.
    • In the Project Core Data module, the option to have the reporting of hours worked for a project member done by a person responsible from the Stakeholder area, without having to switch to the employee board of the project employee. For more information, click here.
    • When copying a schedule, the values of the Description and Necessary Requirements fields corresponding to the task are copied as well.
    • After successful creation of the required controlling reports in the Controlling Reports module, a respective note is displayed in the status line.
    • In the Planning Objects (in Table Form) module, fields that are not required have been hidden.
    • The < Critical Projects Projects module has been extended by the My Projects module variant which only shows the projects for which the logged-on user is the project manager.
    • The Budget module has been extendeed by the option to copy costs and effort from the Total costs (without subprojects) or Total effort (without subprojects) columns to the Cost budget requested (without subprojects) or Effort budget requested (without subprojects) columns at once (one arrow more above the Requested (without subprojects) column).
    • In the Deviations module, the Refresh button has been implemented, which is displayed if changes are made in other modules which have an impact on the display of the data in the Deviations module while the Deviations module is still opened.
  • R50
    • In the Request module, a functionality that enables you to add stakeholders has been added.
  • R60
  • R70
    • The user menu of the portfolio manager has been extended by the New Program entry.
    • In the Portfolio module, the summarized risk and opportunity values have been removed from the header area since there is a separate area for risks with detailed information in this module.
    • The procedure (workflow) for the creation of the portfolio status reports has been changed. The configuration of the data (estimations, comments, assignment of status reports to planning objects) is done in the Portfolio Status Reports module. The Edit Portfolio Status Report and Configure Portfolio Status Report are no longer used. For more information, see the Create Portfolio Status Report tutorial.
