    New Features

     

    Description

     

    Impact/Action Needed

           
    IP-309 Portfolio - New Dynamic Portfolios
    Learn More
     
     This feature leverages the power of list views to dynamically filter and update portfolios, eliminating the need for manual updates. When a Project list view is associated with a portfolio, any project records meeting that criteria, are reflected in the portfolio's display in real-time. This ensures that portfolios always present the most up-to-date information based on the selected Project list view. Admin Guide - Enable Dynamic Portfolios
           
    IP-306 Portfolio - In-line Editing
    Learn More
     With this update, you will be able to update Project fields directly within the portfolio view. This includes fields such as Project Status, Project KPIs, and more. It offers a convenient and efficient way to manage and update project information. No action required
           
      Project - Project Gantt LWC (Closed Beta) We have upgraded the existing Visualforce component to a Lightning Web Component (LWC), aligning it with the current Salesforce platform architecture and programming language. This upgrade brings a more intuitive user interface, aligned with the Lightning aesthetic. It also enhances performance and scalability. 

    *Please note that this feature is a Closed Beta available to Premium+ customers only on a requested basis. Beta availability will begin at the end of June. Please reach out to your CSM if you are interested in participating

    It will not be automatically enabled and will require full regression testing before activation to ensure compatibility with existing org configurations and architecture. The legacy Gantt will be maintained in its current state until further notice.
     Admin Guide to follow
           
    IP-290 Project Task - New “Actual Start Date” Field
    Learn More
     We've added a new field on Project Task object called “Actual Start Date” which is automatically populated when Project Task status is updated to “In Progress” (or equivalent status). Admin Guide - Actual Start and Actual Finish Date
           
    IP-304 Lightning Component - Salesforce Task View
    Learn More
     

    We have added a new Lightning Component called “Salesforce Task View” that can be added to any Lightning Page such as a home page or Project Lightning record page. This component allows users to easily see and toggle between all Salesforce Tasks, My Salesforce Tasks and All Overdue Tasks.

     

    When this component is added to a Project Lightning record page, the component only displays Salesforce Tasks related to the Project. This provides Project Managers a quick and easy way to see and navigate to all related Salesforce Tasks. 

     Admin Guide - Lightning Component - Salesforce Task View
           
    IP-362 Project Status Report - New custom setting for custom VF page A new custom setting called “Status Report Custom Page Name” has been added to Inspire Planner Config. This allows you to define the name of your custom VF Page to be used for the Project Status Report.  Admin Guide - Make Changes to Project Status Report VF Page
