Zoho Projects integration | Zoho Sprints Help

Zoho Projects integration

No matter how many projects you have on your list to coordinate, managing everything in the right way matters the most. Project management methodologies are many, and every business is bound to follow a standard process. That's why moving to a different process remains herculean task for teams. 

Teams across a project, either follow the waterfall or the agile model to manage their work. Not all the processes in the team find the usual model effective. Some teams may require the standard process and other teams require an iterative model to deliver the tasks. Managing teams by implementing both the models is the real success.

Integrating Zoho Sprints with Zoho Projects will create a standard process that offers a flexible, productive, and iterative workflow. Let's start with the technical steps to work with this integration. 

Example  


Info
Helen Collins is the managing director of 'Marks and Michalle' an e-commerce website that is famous for textiles in New York (NY). She has a team of 500 employees working from client servicing to delivery sectors. As the team grows she finds it difficult to manage an d monitor the working style and process of all the sectors.
 
Now, she uses Zoho Projects where all the employees in her company are added as users with different roles. All the deliverables are met successfully with a long-term project management technique. 
 
However, here comes the challenge when the customers raise something like this:
Case 1: "As a user, I want to be a part of the development process and try out your features before you take it up for the final release".
 
Bringing the end user into the development and review process is possible if Helen's team starts working Agile - Develop, Review, Iterate, and then Deliver. Now, she can push her development team to follow the agile process to succeed the above user story. 


Idea
 Sync all the projects related to development in Zoho Sprints.

 Set a strict scrum (8 weeks) and deliver a workable version to the customer.

 Conduct a sprint review meeting and receive feedback.

 Conduct the sprint retrospective meetup and analyze pitfalls. 

 Iterate in a different sprint and deliver the final version. 

 Update the work item progress to high level managements.

 Track all reports at a single place.
 
Helen's development team now finds it easy to manage the customer request by integrating with Zoho Sprints. The other teams can use Zoho Projects for:
 
Idea
 Listing all the long term goals as milestones

 Managing and generating invoice for the employees

 Viewing all the Zoho Sprints reports and quickly estimating their team's performance

 Configure workspace

Configuration of workspace has to be implemented from the Zoho Projects platform. 
  1. Navigate to Settings in Zoho Projects.                    .
  2. Select Zoho Apps under Marketplace section.
  3. Click Configure under  Zoho Sprints
  4. Choose the Zoho Sprints team from the drop-down. (Incase, if you don't hold a Zoho Sprints workspace, click Create Zoho Sprints Account and create a new workspace in Zoho Sprints.)
  5. Click Map Workspace(Your workspace will be configured.)
  6. Click Sprints Info to navigate to Zoho Sprints. (or) Click Back to Integrations and select Access Zoho Sprints. 

WarningEnsure whether API access is enabled in Zoho Sprints settings to initiate this integration.
Once you click Access Zoho Sprints  you will be redirected to your Zoho Sprints workspace. The actual work starts now.   

   Key points in workspace configuration 
Quote
  1. Only workspace owners can integrate Zoho Sprints with Zoho Projects.
  2. This integration is accessible only for the users who have an admin role in Zoho Projects. 
  1. If you don't have a workspace (i.e., portal) in Zoho Sprints, you can create a new workspace and then map it to your Zoho Projects portal.
  1. You cannot disable the integration once it is enabled. 

Projects sync 

You can only map projects from Zoho Projects to Zoho Sprints. Learn more on how to map the projects.
Idea
  1. Field sync: Project Name, Description, Project Owner, Start Date, and End Date

   Key points in project sync 

  1. QuoteYou can add new or existing projects from Zoho Projects to Zoho Sprints and vice versa.
  1. Deleting the mapped project in Zoho Sprints will remove the mapping with Zoho Projects. Once deleted, you cannot retrieve the mapping.  
  1. Archiving the mapped project in Zoho Sprints will disable the upcoming modifications made in Zoho Projects. Once the project is moved to active, the users can resume the sync.
  1. Trashing a mapped project in Zoho Projects will remove the mapping with Zoho Sprints. Once trashed, you cannot perform any operation between the applications. Mapping will be enabled if you recover the project from trash.
  2. You cannot sync a project that is enabled with a Task Roll up option in Zoho Projects.

Project Template Sync

Project templates from Zoho Projects can now be synced with projects in Zoho Sprints. When you have to execute work items that are quite similar to your tasks in Zoho Projects, instead of manually recreating it in Zoho Sprints every time, you can simply sync the template.

Notes
Note:  If you sync a project with an integrated template, work items that are common to both the products remain integrated. The stand alone work items and tasks will be cloned in Zoho Sprints and Zoho Projects respectively.

Case for strict project

In Zoho Projects, you can set a project as 'Strict' and define a start and end date. When a project is strict the users cannot defy the dates while working with the tasks. The same rule gets applied when a strict project is added to Zoho Sprints. There are a few restrictions to keep in mind when you're trying to sync a strict project.

Warning
Strict project restriction
  1. Strict projects will carry the same date range while mapped with Zoho Sprints.
  1. You can modify the date range for a strict project  in Zoho Sprints. 
  1. While modifying the date range ensure that all the work items are eligible for a date change. 
  1. For example, if a strict project's date range is Aug 1, 2019 - Aug 31, 2019 and you have a work item with a start and end date as Aug 30, 2019 - Aug 31, 2019. 
  1. When you try to modify the date range of the project from Aug 1, 2019 - Aug 28, 2019 in Zoho Sprints, you cannot update the new date range since you have a work item exceeding this date range. 
  1. In this case, you have to stick on to the existing date range or change the work item's date range to modify the project's start and end date.
This is a two-way sync where you can add work items from Zoho Sprints as tasks to Zoho Projects and tasks as different work item types from Zoho Projects to Zoho Sprints.

General FAQs

Why log hours are not getting synced to Zoho Projects?

Zoho Projects restricts log hours to 24 hours per day. In Zoho Sprints, we do not hold any limit for log hours. You might have logged more than 24 hours in a day. In this case, the log hours will be added to Zoho Sprints and will not be synced to Zoho Projects. 
NotesNote: You can also customize the log hour restrictions in Zoho Projects. If the hours logged exceed the customized limit, then the log hours will not be synced to Zoho Projects. Also, a user's log hours will be added to Zoho Projects only if she/her is a confirmed user.
When I try to log hours in past dates it gets added in Zoho Sprints but it is not synced to Zoho Projects, how to work out this sync?

Zoho Sprints will restrict log hours to future dates. Based on the time log settings defined in Zoho Projects, the log hours are synced from Zoho Sprints to Zoho Projects. But, even if the future is "Allow" in Zoho Projects, the log hours will not be synced to Zoho Sprints.  

User sync

User sync is one of the main component in this integration as it helps coordination between the team members to work both in the waterfall and agile model. 

Adding user

All the users from Zoho Projects will be added to Zoho Sprints but will be under 'Inactive' state. Only the Admin can activate the user in Zoho Sprints. And only after the user confirms the invitation email they can carry out the further operations.  Learn more  on how to activate users. 

Before the user confirms or if the user is in 'Inactive' state in Zoho Sprints, then they: 
  1. Can perform allowed operations from Zoho Projects to Zoho Sprints. 
  2. Cannot view the operations in Zoho Sprints. 
How are user roles mapped?

Zoho Sprints
Zoho Projects
Team Owner
Portal Admin
Member
Admin, Manager, Employee, Contractor, Client User

  1. When you add a new user (and client user) in the mapped project from Zoho Projects, the user will be added to Zoho Sprints. But at a team level, the user will be added only if they are part of any mapped project. 


Info
  1     User is synced from Zoho Projects.  This user has been moved to Active Status in Zoho Sprints and the user has confirmed the email invite. After the user has confirmed, the role is changed as Manager in Zoho Sprints.  
  2    User is synced from Zoho Projects. By default, the user has been added to 'Inactive' Status. Only after the confirmation the user will be shown as 'Active' 
  3      The client user in Zoho Projects should be added to Zoho One to integrate with Zoho Sprints.                     

Editing user

When you modify the user details from Zoho Projects it gets automatically updated in Zoho Sprints. When you modify the project details and add it as a Zoho Sprints project, all the users will be synced to Zoho Sprints. 

Deleting user

You cannot delete a Zoho Projects user from Zoho Sprints. Alternatively, you can delete them at a team level but the user will only be moved to 'Inactive' status and will not be deleted. You have to delete the user from Zoho Projects to remove them from Zoho Sprints. 

Deactivating users

Deactivating synced users from both the applications will hold the user as an active user and they can perform all the operations. 

Profile-based permission

User profile permissions to perform sync between Zoho Sprints and Zoho Projects can be configured in your Zoho Projects marketplace section. Navigate to Zoho Sprints configuration page and select the required checkboxes to enable the profile-based permissions for both Zoho Projects and Zoho Sprints.



You can specify the permissions to add a project to Zoho Projects and add items as tasks or issues in Zoho Projects from Zoho Sprints. Based on the permission defined here, Zoho Sprints users' access to sync data to Zoho Projects will be enabled or disabled. In other words, the Sync to Zoho Projects capability will be accessible only to those with the profile permission.
Notes
Note:
  1. Permission settings of the team/workspace owner, admin, project owner are enabled by default and cannot be edited.
  2. If All profiles checkbox is enabled for Project/Item, every new profile that gets created will have the permissions enabled.
  3. Projects portal owner and admins can view or edit Zoho Sprints settings within Zoho Projects.

The Form Sync Settings tab allows you to configure the default sync in both Zoho Projects and Zoho Sprints. Switching the toggle button allows you to determine whether the sync in the project and item creation forms should be enabled or disabled by default.



On enabling default preference, the Zoho Projects sync checkbox in the creation form will be selected by default. If you do not want the sync to take place, you need to unselect the checkbox.



General FAQs

What happens if I don't activate the synced Zoho Projects user in Zoho Sprints?

The user remains in the 'Inactive' status and the user will not be able to add work items, log hours, and perform further operations. You can assign the users to the work items but they can neither view nor perform any actions until the user gets activated in Zoho Sprints.  

How do I know that the user is confirmed in Zoho Sprints?

Once you activate the Zoho Projects user, they will receive an invitation email to confirm their account. Only if the user confirms the email they can start working with Zoho Sprints. 

Can I sync a new user added from Zoho Sprints to Zoho Projects?

No, you cannot sync a new user from Zoho Sprints to Zoho Projects. But a new user added from Zoho Projects will be synced to Zoho Sprints. But, the user will remain in the 'Inactive' state. 

Can I delete a Zoho Projects user from Zoho Sprints?

No, you cannot delete a user added synced from Zoho Projects. The user should be deleted in Zoho Projects and only then they can be deleted from Zoho Sprints. 

How does work item status differ in Zoho Sprints and Zoho Projects?  

When you integrate Zoho Projects with your Zoho Sprints account, you can sync your work items. However, the status updates will be different for both the products.
 
For instance, when you add an item in Zoho Sprints and Zoho Projects, the work item in Zoho Sprints will be added with the status ' To Do ' and in Zoho Projects it will be added with ' Open '.

Can I sync Client and Vendor users from Zoho Sprints end?

Client and Vendor users are not supported in Zoho Sprints projects that are integrated with Zoho Projects. If you navigate to the Users module, only Team user option will be available in the integrated projects. If you enable Zoho Projects integration for an existing Sprints project that has Client and Vendor users, you will get an error stating that the project cannot be synced due to the presence of Client/Vendor users.

However, Client user is supported from Zoho Projects end. You can integrate a Zoho Projects project with Client user, but the user will be added as a team user in Zoho Sprints.

User group sync

User group sync enables you to bridge the user groups in Zoho Sprints and teams in Zoho Projects. It allows you to create user groups in either sprints workspace or projects portal and have it synced to the other. The verification process for the email alias is also unified. Learn how to verify email alias while creating user groups.

User group sync behaviour

  1. New user groups created in Zoho Sprints will automatically be created as teams in Zoho Projects.
  2. Similarly, new teams created in Zoho Projects will automatically be created as user groups in Zoho Sprints.
  3. Existing user groups in Zoho Sprints will be synced to Zoho Projects when integration is enabled and vice versa.
  4. Users associated with the user groups in Zoho Sprints will automatically be added as users in Zoho Projects portal following the sync. However, they will be inactive users in the projects portal and will not have access until activated by the portal owner.
  5. Similarly, users associated with the teams in Zoho Projects will automatically be added as users in Zoho Sprints workspace. These users will be inactive in the workspace and will not have access until activated by the workspace owner.
  6. Modifying user group name, owner, email alias (will require you to perform the email verification for the new alias), users, and projects in Zoho Sprints will automatically reflect in Zoho Projects and vice versa.
    Note: The email verification process for the alias will be triggered from both the Zoho Sprints and Zoho Projects. However, it is sufficient to verify from any one of those two applications.

  7. Deleting the user groups in Zoho Sprints will reflect in Zoho Projects and vice versa. However, the users associated with those groups will not be deleted from Sprints workspace or Projects portal.
