New Setting to disable Ownership Inheritance for Attachments and Deliverables

Why

Better control of access rights inheritance for attachments and deliverables through a new setting

How

  • A new setting ‘Disable Attachments and Task Deliverables inheritance‘ is now introduced and available in the ‘Collaborative Spaces Configuration Center‘ widget under ‘Project Management’ -> ‘Project Template Behaviors’ section.

  • It allows you to prevent access inheritance for attachments and deliverables connected to a project or a task.

  • By default, the setting is unchecked. In this case, the system shares the ownership of the project and task to any connected attachment and deliverable.

 

 

New Setting to Restrict Access To Risk Matrix Configuration

Why

Better control over who can configure the Risk Matrix through a new setting

How

  • A new setting ‘Restrict Risk Matrix Configuration create & modify access to Platform Admins‘ is now introduced and available in the ‘Collaborative Spaces Configuration Center‘ widget under ‘Project Management’ -> ‘Risk Management’ section.

  • It allows you to control who can configure the Risk Matrix Configuration.

  • In case the setting is set to :

    • False (the default), the behavior remains the current behavior:  Project Leaders can create and modify the Risk Matrix Configuration

    • True, only users with platform admin privilege can configure the Risk Matrix Configuration.

 

 

New Attribute ‘Severity’ for Risk & Opportunity

Why

Improve decision making by displaying the severity of the risk in the creation dialog, the table view and the property panel.

How

  • The Risk Severity is based on the Risk Impact and the Risk Probability.

  • Until now, the severity of the risk was represented only by the various colors in the Risk Matrix. (Green, Yellow, Red)

  • Now, a new field, ‘Severity’ is introduced and available for Risk and Opportunity in the:

    • Creation dialog

    • Table View

    • Property Panel

  • In the default risk matrix configuration the severity is mapped as follows:

    • Green level is mapped to Severity 1- Low

    • Yellow level is mapped to Severity 2 – Medium

    • Red level is mapped to Severity 3-High

  • You can change the severity definition in the risk matrix configuration.

 

 

History Tab in Information Panel

Why

Improve regulatory compliance by capturing and listing all user actions performed on an object 

How

The ‘History’ tab displays history details of a selected project entity including:

  • Modified On

  • Modified By

  • The Action

  • The Maturity State
