  • The Status Report Publish workflow process pushes values from the status report sub-object to the parent project object. The process is started when the user ticks the “Publish” Boolean field on the status report (custom field added). This workflow will update the project object with the overall status indicator, the status comment, the previous overall status, and the as of date. This eliminates the project manager having to update the fields in both the status report and the project overall.
  • The Grant RM Timesheet Edit Rights workflow process can be run through the "Execute a Process" job.  The workflow will execute a query that gives a Resource Manager Timesheet Edit rights for their resources. Timesheet Edit rights are not inherent for Resource Managers when they are named as an individual’s resource manager.
  • The Re-Baseline via Change Request process is a simple method for a member of the project (who has the ability to create change requests) to request a re-baseline of the project without the project manager having to perform it. First, the user must create the change request. The user must then start the process within the change request by using the Processes tab. Once started, the process will route an action item to the Project Manager. If rejected, the process will end and the user must start it again (if needed). If approved, the process will then baseline the project and close out the change request.
  • The All Lookups and Attributes portlet provides the ability to see all static lookups in the system, as well as their lookup values. Ability to filter and view the population by lookup name and ID, value name and ID, whether or not the item is active, and whether or not the item is a system (seeded) value.  A system value is a record that comes with a base installation of Clarity as opposed to a value that was added manually or through a Clarity Add-in.
  • The Invalid Transactions portlet displays all of the transactions that did/will not post in Clarity. The benefit of this portlet is that you can use the filter to select a specific project, resource, or error to display all transactions associated to your selection. There are several reasons a transaction may fail to post such as inactive resource, no location or inactive location selected on the Financial sub-page, project on hold, etc. To resolve the error, the user must go into the project or resource and make the noted change. Once all corrections are complete, the  Post Transactions to Financials job must be run to evaluate the corrected WIP transactions to be sure the data is now complete and accurate. If additional incorrect data is found, the transaction will fail to post again and the new error/reason will display.
  • Are your reports and portlets performing well? This class will walk through specific SQL tuning tricks to make queries run faster, increase end-user satisfaction, and smooth-out system performance. This is an easy way to promote efficient future development and make a huge, positive impact on user experience.
  • The Turn off Notifications process disables all Email, SMS and Alerts notifications for all users. This process is helpful if users would not like to receive emails from the system regarding actions items, timesheet submissions, etc. The script may be modified to include all users or all users that have been created within the last day.
  • The Allocation Compliance by Person (Project Manager) portlet gives a view of resource allocation compliance for active resources on the team of an investment the logged in user is the manager for.  It allows the PM to see resources on their project over the coming months and whether they are over or under allocated.   This portlet leverages the daily allocation and daily availability slices as well as only active investments.  The portlet provides filters for specific dates, filtering by resource ID, and resource name may also be added.
  • The All Status Reports portlet displays any published Status Report related to a project or across multiple projects. The filter then allows the user to narrow their search by Project Manager, Project, Status or Overall Status Category (overall, cost & effort, scope or schedule).  The user may also select if they wish to view only current Status Reports, or to include historical reports as well. The portlet provides the project manager a single place to view all of the status reports without having to go into each project individually, and allows for more efficient management and reporting across projects. Note: Only the projects that the user has view rights to will show up in the list.
  • Calendar View report provides a view of Projects, Milestones or Tasks that has finish date within the user selected month. User has the flexibility to choose to Calendar view as Monthly or Weekly and also number of periods that needs to be displayed in the report. Report can be filtered to show only Projects or Milestones or Tasks with the checkboxes provided. It can also be further filtered using Project Manager and Project OBS parameters.
  • This portlet shows the project costs by Month. The information displayed includes:
    • Start Date for project
    • End Date for project
    • Budgeted Cost
    • Planned Cost
    • Actual Hours
    This provides the PM with a one shot view of the total financials/actuals for the project. The Project name field is linked to the project properties page. In case of any adjustments, the PM can toggle b/w the portlet and the project with ease.  The user can filter on multiple projects, or projects by OBS, or by PMs, to view the data on the portlet.
  • The CA Clarity Hidden Page Flush Caches document provides an overview of how to clear the cache on an application server without exiting the CA Clarity Application itself utilizing a hidden page within the system.
