Exciting news, everyone! Our Universal Project Viewer feature just got a major functional upgrade: Pre-filtering. This useful feature allows schedule administrators to finely adjust the project data displayed on the Gantt chart using a range of filtering options. As a result, team members within specific schedule groups will view the most relevant project data aligned with their roles or responsibilities. 

The Benefits of Pre-filtering 

Pre-filtering simplifies project scheduling by allowing precise layout customization. 

 Here’s how it works: 

• Create layouts: Control the data display on the Gantt chart by creating a predefined layout per schedule group. 
• Define filtering Options: Create layouts by filtering schedule data based on Activity Codes and Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) elements.  
• Provide flexibility: Create distinct pre-filtered layouts for different schedules within a single group, catering to various team member needs. 
• Implement easy access controls: By creating a layout ensure team members only see project data fulfilling the pre-filtering criteria.  
• Time-saving schedule management: Quickly create customized layouts with intuitive navigation and user-friendly interface. 
• Enhance Efficiency: Enable team members to navigate schedules without being overwhelmed by irrelevant data, thus boosting productivity and efficiency.  

Benefits for Your Project 

• Reduced complexity: Simplify project schedules for team members, minimizing confusion and errors while interpreting project data. 
• Improved productivity: Save team members’ time spent on searching for relevant project activities and navigating through complex project structures, allowing them to focus on executing tasks efficiently. 
• Faster onboarding: Facilitate quick integration of new or less experienced team members by providing a clear view of their responsibilities within the project.   
• Transparency and empowerment: Boost motivation by providing visibility and clarity over one’s tasks and foster ownership and control over tasks.  
• Simplified Project Oversight: Enable project managers to monitor project progress effectively by focusing on relevant data, reducing the risk of oversight errors.  

In summary, “Pre-filtering” equips administrators with the opportunity to create customized layouts while ensuring team members view the necessary data.
