Brief summary of this article:
Inactive Teams
Teams are created in Targetprocess in order to connect groups of people and their work. It’s logical that one day some groups will serve their purpose or complete their work and then need to be dismissed or merged. In the meantime work assigned to that team should be archived to be available for historic reporting.
We are happy to announce that you can now mark a Team as inactive. Which means that you will no longer see these teams in Teams selectors but you'll still be able to get access to historic items related to inactive teams.
To deactivate a Team you need to open Team details view, find Active?
checkbox on Info
panel and click it so that it will be set to False
. It will be hidden from selectors in views, in Quick Add forms, lookups, and in filters. However you still will be able to get access to inactive teams from views that display Teams as cards.
Grouping cards by planned dates. Quarters.
Planning by time periods is now easier. Weeks, Months, Quarters, Half-years or Years added as grouping options in lane's selectors. There is no need to create Custom Fields for time periods anymore.
It works in this way: for instance when you move a card into Q1 column, the card's planned start date is set to the first day of the Quarter, the planned end date will be set to the last day of Quarter. If the card has already set a planned date then it will appear in quarter to which planned end date/planned start date belongs.
Relations management on views
Now you can add and delete relations between two cards displayed on boards and timelines much easier. Just right click on a card to add a relation. Right click on the Relation line to delete it or swap the relation's direction.
Batch Actions in List views
Work on backlogs in Targetprocess becomes easier as we introduced support for batch actions in lists. Editing multiple items at the same time becomes even more handy. For instance, in lists with User Stories, Bugs, Requests, Features it is now possible to bulk change workflow states, assigned people and teams, iterations and releases, tags.
To perform a mass update, open a view. Hold Ctrl/Cmd and click on individual elements. Press Edit selected items
button that appears in the right bottom corner of the screen.
