The Self Assign workflow process updates a selected resource field on an object based on someone checking a boolean field on the same object. Using this process, whomever is editing the object, will be placed in this field automatically eliminating the need for each user to come in and update the field manually. The field will run when the Boolean is ticked and the user saves the page. It is important to note that the page will need to be reloaded to see the changes reflected. This can be used as a fast way to self-assign yourself to an object - you can create a boolean field that is checked and have the process assign you to that item. -
This process must be run using the “Execute a Process” job. Job may be scheduled or run on-demand. Process pulls Availability Rate from the Availability blob for each resource, where blob is not null. Then it populates this value into a custom Daily Availability attribute (Number field with 2 decimals) on the Resource object. This field does not have to be displayed to be used for reporting. Because the OOB Availability Rate field is stored only in a blob, it is difficult to include in portlet or report output. The use of this custom attribute makes the value easily reportable. -

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. -

Connect with user and get familiar with them via Office 365/Azure Profile photos synced with the Clarity PPM Avatars. This is a good way to collaborate with the team and users for any quick update or interaction. This is a scheduled process in Clarity named Sync Profile Photo from Office 365 and will be scheduled to run as a job. When the process is executed, it will be setting the Microsoft O365 profile photo into the users Avatar photo in Clarity PPM and optionally, sync custom attribute of the Resource with profile photo, which can be used for quick identification of the user. Sync Process come with some parameters for the Support team, which they can use as per there environment configurations. These some important Gel parameters for quick configuration are:- msProfilePicField : Custom Resource Field to store Photo, if not provided process will skip syncing the custom field.
- msTenantId: Microsoft Azure Tenant Id
- msClientId: Microsoft Azure Application client Id
- msClientSecret: Microsoft Azure Application client Secret
- msTeamPhotoSize: Define size of the photo to be fetched
- syncPPMAvatar: Parameter to Sync PPM User Avatar photo from MS Team

The Task-At-A-Glance Notes portlet provides a view of project tasks and assignments in an easy to read format, similar to popular sticky – note applications. This portlet will display all tasks on a project, ‘pinning’ them to a dashboard. Each task will include the resources assigned to them, as well as the ETCs left for the resource, and the actuals that they have posted. Each sticky note allows you to link to the task details, as well as the resource assignment details. In addition to important assignment detail, each pin on the individual task’s note indicates if the task finishes before the baseline (green), or if it is going to finish after the baseline (red). -

When a task is marked as complete the process looks to any tasks that are dependent on the newly completed task. If a task is marked as “Not Started” and all of the dependency tasks are marked as complete then the process will change the task status to “Started” and email all resources that are assigned to the task that has started. The process notifies resources that a task is ready to start and saves the project manager the manual effort of updating dependent tasks. NOTE: The process relies on task dependencies and is most useful in those environments where task dependencies are managed. -
