  • The All Change Request portlet displays all change requests related to active projects that the logged in user has view rights to.   The portlet provides the project manager a single place to view change requests across multiple projects without having to go into each project individually and allows for more efficient management and reporting across projects. The filter allows the user to narrow their search by date ranges, resources involved, and/or the project with which the Change Request is associated. Other alternatives for filtering include the category, priority or status of the Change Request. In the list view, a status is displayed for each Change Request (CR), along with the Project with which the CR is associated, the CR ID, the CR name, the resource to whom the CR is assigned, Priority, Expected Closure Date, and number of days the CR has remained open. Note: Only the projects that the user has viewer rights to will show up in the list.
  • The Capacity Graph portlet displays Availability, Allocations, Actuals and Assignments for one or more active resource(s) in a single view. This portlet pulls data from timeslices, and allows the user to filter on a weekly, monthly or quarterly data.  The Estimated Time to Complete (ETC) and Allocation data will only show for projects that are active. This portlet provides Resource Managers, PMOs and Executives with a simple way to analyse:  Allocations vs. Availability, Allocations vs. Actuals, Allocations vs. ETC and ETC vs. Availability.  The graph allows the user to determine where areas of improvement may exist and quickly identify potential areas of constraint. Note: the information displayed is dependent on what the user has security rights to view.

Would you like to create dashboards with metrics from surveys, lessons learned, project audits, and quality? In this class, we will review a customer use case where all of this was done in Clarity PPM—linking to SharePoint to capture survey results, then producing dashboards inside of PPM and SharePoint based on very specific metrics.

We’ll walk you through specific interface examples and showcase Rego’s pre-built interface sets you can leverage to reduce the time and cost of implementation.
  • The Project Close Process workflow process aides the Project Manager in some routine close out tasks that accompany every project. Marking the project inactive starts the process and it will continue down one of two paths:
    1. Once the project is inactive, the process will then check to see if there is no remaining estimate to complete (ETC) still on the project. If there is ETC leftover, then the process will go into a waiting state for 14 days to allow the project manager to cleanup or to cancel the process if it was done in error. After 14 days, the process will check to see if the project is active. If the project is active, then the process will end. However, if the project is still inactive, the process will continue with the closeout activities even if there is ETC still on the project.
    2. If the project is marked inactive after the initial 14 days of waiting if applicable, then the process will immediately move to the closeout activities.
    The closeout activities include:
    • Turning off time entry for the project, tasks and project members
    • Updates the ETC, proposed ETC, and pending estimates to 0
    • Updates the task status and assignment status to Completed
    • Sets the task, assignment and project finish dates to today’s date only if the finish dates are after the process run date
    • Sets all Risks and Issues to Closed with a resolution of  “## This was closed automatically as part of the project close process ##”
    • Set future hard allocation and allocation finish dates to today when the date is after today’s date
  • A process creating a new Cost Plan. Cost Plan properties:
    Name Cost Plan created on: yyyy/mm/dd hh:mm:ss
    Grouping attributes Charge Code, Transaction Type
    Start Period The earliest fiscal period with Actuals (from PPA_WIP table) or current period, if there are no actuals
    Finish Period The latest fiscal period with a non-zero allocation (from PRJ_BLB_SLICES table, SLICE_REQUEST_ID = 6
    Period Type Monthly
    Plan of Record True
    Planned Cost For periods in the past – from Actuals (Charge Code, Transaction Type, Quantity (Units), Cost (Amount) taken from Transactions (PPA_WIP & PPA_WIP_DETAILS); For current and future periods – from Allocations (Charge Code taken from the Project, Transaction Class from the Resource, Quantity from allocation slices, Cost from the Rate Matrix (NBI_PROJ_RES_RATES_AND_COSTS table)
    Pre-conditions:
    • the Project must be financially enabled.
    • if a new Team Member is added, Rate Matrix job must be run, so the rates are populated in the NBI table.
    • if the Allocation changes, allow the timeslice job to finish before running the process.
    • the Project should have the Charge Code set.
