Project Statuses

Project Statuses

Hi All,

We have projects that sometimes may not make it through to completion.

As such, they were being marked as "Cancelled". I noticed that these projects still show as "Active" though which seems counter intuitive. In fact, the only way I can get them to be removed from my "Active" projects is by sending them to Archive at which point it seems their status becomes updated to "Completed".

I would much prefer their status to remain as "Cancelled" so I can later report on which projects made it through to completion and which did not.

Questions:
Is there a way for projects marked as "Cancelled" to be removed from "Active" projects?
Is there a way to keep archived projects in the respective status they were assigned when archived?

Any guidance is appreciated.

      • Tip: How to print the Gantt View

        Though we move from the traditional project management system (using papers) to an online project management system, we still prefer to have a printed copy of the activities/tasks that are to be done in the project. This way, we can carry the to-do lists with us for the meetings and refer when we are offline. The print option, available at the right side of the page, allows the users to print the project information across all the modules. However, this option failed to print all the tasks & milestones

      • Task Inline Editing Enhancement

        Hi All, Today, we have made an enhancement in task inline editing. In 4.0, task edit is moved in a single screen in a pop-up. We designed this in-order to make the task edit across the product to be the same. Let it be in Feeds, Tasks & My Tasks tab, Calendar & My Calendar tab, a click on the task title will open the popup and user can edit the values. Customers pointed us the inline editing was very useful to them & how much they miss that in 4.0. Based on the feedback, we have rolled out this enhancement.
