New Features

Hello Community,

Although we are waiting for official confirmation about the new features that were released last month I have compiled my list of features. Take a look and let me know if you have seen any which is not part of my list

Feature 1: Maximize the Card

Feature 2: Worksheet Additional Insights Panel – Two more sub-features

Hide card preview - it hides the card preview in the additional insights panel
Set as open by default - When you open worksheet with this option enabled it displays primary as well as secondary grid on the worksheet instead of just primary grid

Feature 3: Send Notifications – Send customized notifications to indicate specific user actions with the notify action.This feature is available in WS & Board actions

Step I: Go to Configure Worksheet Actions button in Worksheets or Configure Actions in Boards

Step II: Create Notifications

Step III: Add Recipients & Publish the action

Feature 4: Gantt Charts

Feature 5: Column Headers Locked/Frozen upon Scrolling

Feature 6: Export the Users from Tenant Admin Console. You can see this option on top right screen while navigating to Access Controls -> Assignments

Did you figure out the new feature that allows you to set a "flexible time setting" property on the model? I can't seem to figure it out.

@VickiA may know too, just need a little more detail on how it works.

I think you can refer below link then you will get an idea about the Time labeling.

These were part of August release. Will be captured in next month updates.

It's about labeling your time on main TIME section of the model. You can choose any two letter as per your choice

SS1:

SS2:

SS3:

Now don't ask why only two letters why not more:)

Note: There is a Known Issue here. When you sync your model from Dev to Prod post 8/8 enhancements it will remove the current period in Prod Model. Make sure you reset your current Period in Prod Model once you sync it. This happens only to first Sync after 8/8

Thanks,
