Included in this release are a number of features aimed at improving team productivity with fewer meetings and less manual intervention:
Streamlined Project Staffing: With the new resource request workflow, staffing requests are submitted by project managers, prompting resource managers to fulfill the request in compliance with established internal policies while maximizing project margins and resource utilization. At the same time, resource managers can identify available resources using configurable color-coded utilization visual indicators.- Enriched PO Management: Project managers can view available Purchase Orders, including consumption status, on Accounts and Projects in PSA, helping them manage project budgets without having to gather the information from Finance or Account Managers. Coupled with new alerts and notifications, both project managers and customer success managers can be notified at creation or consumption milestones to help them actively monitor the available budget and ensure maximum consumption without overrun.
- Improved Expense Management: When submitting expenses, the receipt image is now displayed right beside the entry details, removing additional clicks, and enabling team members to quickly verify the contents of the receipt match the line item before submitting for approval.
- Expanded Help Center: Offering a new look and feel, the redesigned Help Center makes it easy to find information and resources on a variety of topics. The User Experience focused on improved search capabilities and better organization of search results to improve readability and reduce scrolling and navigation.
