Customize Chart Colors customize-chart-colors
You can now customize the colors of the elements of charts. This applies for all chart types in reports. This does not apply for the Gantt chart.
Prior to this change, the colors of the elements of all charts were selected by default by Workfront. For more information about customizing chart colors, see the “Customizing Chart Colors” sections in Add a chart to a report.
Additional Options When Copying Projects additional-options-when-copying-projects
Now when copying a project, the options now match those that are available when copying tasks or issues. You can also change the status of the copied project while you are copying it.
Prior to this update, you could not change the status of the copied project during copying it, and only two options were available when copying a project:
- To retain assignments on tasks and the project
- To retain progress on tasks and project
With the new functionality, the former options have been removed, and the following options have been added when copying a project:
- Clear Assignments
- Clear Financial Information
- Clear Progress
- Clear Approval Process
- Clear Custom Data
- Clear Reminder Notifications
- Clear Documents
- Clear Expenses
- Clear All Predecessors
- Clear Permissions
- Select All
For more information about the new functionality around copying projects, see the “Copying a Project in the Preview Environment” section in Copy a project.
Resource Planner Improvement: Filters resource-planner-improvement-filters
You can now filter the information you see in the Resource Planner by the following objects:
- Portfolio
- Project Status
- Team
- Job Role
- Resource Pool
You can also add a custom filter based on these objects.
For more information about using the Resource Planner, see Resource Planner overview.
Resource Planner Improvement: Show Issue Hours in the “Settings” Area resource-planner-improvement-show-issue-hours-in-the-settings-area
There is a new Settings area in the Resource Planner which displays several options to customize the Resource Planner. With this release, we have added the first option, to include planned hours from issues in the Planned Hours columns of the Resource Planner.
For more information about using the Resource Planner, see Resource Planner overview.
SSO Information for the Custom Refresh and Preview Sandboxes Do Not Refresh sso-information-for-the-custom-refresh-and-preview-sandboxes-do-not-refresh
Starting with this release, when you refresh your Custom Refresh and Preview Sandboxes, the SSO information is not copied from your Production environment, nor is it disabled. Prior to this change, the SSO information in the Custom Refresh and Preview Sandboxes was disabled and set to “None.”
