Great new #Enhancements to #ProjectOnline
1. Email Notification
Email notifications in Project Online keep you on top of what’s coming, let you know when things are due and what’s currently on your plate.
This feature is available from today.
2. Project IDs
This was much awaited!
Until today I have to use JS or other solutions, in order to generate unique ID for each project.
This is now going to be available as OOB option, and can be configured as part of the Enterprise Project Type (EPT) settings.
Each EPT has its own project ID definition. You can specify a fixed Pre- and Postfix, Starting Number and Minimum Digit Padding. The project ID can be added to a number of views throughout PWA and in custom reports. It can also be programmatically updated using CSOM.
Note, that this feature is still in final touches mode, and yet to be released.
