Innovation comes in all shapes and sizes and the following improvements that have recently made their way into PPO sure do pack a punch!

Manual task duration is a thing of the past! We’ve implemented calculated task duration regardless of how you load your tasks into PPO. This enhancement helps streamline tasks within PPO which will hopefully lead to improved accuracy and most importantly save you valuable time.

Our latest product news feature introduces “setting default values” on all data fields in PPO. This administration enhancement has huge potential for streamlining data inputs, improving user experience and can even serve as an onboarding tool for the creation and automation of project artefacts like demand requests and project charters. Simply put, default values are pre-populated data inputs that users can either accept or modify.

Welcome to a double dose of innovation! In this blog post, we’re thrilled to announce some small yet powerful features that have recently been added to PPO. But that’s not all – we’ll also take you on a journey through the highlights of our 2024’s first new feature webinar.

In PPO, you’ve always had the ability to delete items from a custom list, but we’ve found that administrators were hesitant to delete the items due to the impacts that it could have on the underlying data, both current and historical data. We have now introduced the ability to mark custom list items as inactive, to avoid some of the pitfalls of the delete option.

Identifying and plugging data gaps has never been this easy! As we all know, complete and accurate data is essential for effective management of your portfolio of projects and is crucial for generating reliable reporting.

As users spend more and more time in PPO, we’ve seen the need to provide you with quick access to links from your new Configurable Home Pages, so today we’re rolling our new newest widget, the My Links Widget.

We get that for the project manager, understanding and managing project costs (including resource costs) is crucial for effective project planning and tracking. So today, we’re thrilled to introduce you to the automated workflow that will save you precious time and eliminate manual inputs for generating your resource budgets.

We’ve now made using the board so much easier by providing you the ability to edit the data on the cards without having to go to a new page, and YES, you guessed it, drag & drop of the cards!

You’re probably already familiar with how quickly your feed can fill up in PPO. Like when you’ve just returned from a long but well- deserved break or when you’ve already clicked the first notification and caught up on the related comments and replies. With our new “Mark All Related as Read ” feature, you can quickly reduce the items that are filling up your PPO feed.
