Our latest deployment has added a long-awaited feature to PPO. The feature allows for entities to be added to PPO that are non-project related items. Using PPO’s standard entities such as RAID (Risks, Actions, Issues, Decisions), Tasks, Costs, Documents and adding your own custom entities, has always been a strength of PPO and the introduction … Continue reading "Non-Project Related Work Management Made Easier"
