Activity List View (ALV) Updates

• Filters, grouping, and sorting now remain as set and no longer reset to default after editing an activity.
• Users can no longer drag items on the Gantt, preventing confusion since dragging did not update the database.
• Columns now display Start Date before Finish Date, with default sorting on Finish Date.
• Fixed an issue where certain Gantt bars appeared on incorrect dates.

Activity Flow Diagram (AFD) Updates

• Legacy “process start/finish” references no longer appear in predecessor/successor lists when activities are expanded from the Library.
• Added “Unassigned” as a master data filter option, allowing users to identify all activities lacking assignments (similar to how they appear in the Unassigned swimlane).

Performance Enhancements

• Ongoing improvements continue 1–2 times per week as we move toward targeted system performance levels

Gantt Visualization Upgrade

• Switched to the Bryntum Gantt viewer for enhanced Gantt chart graphics, responsiveness, and functionality

Commitment Plan Improvements

• Updated “Show Completed” filter so it no longer affects Completed (Pending) activities

Standard Process Library

• Added the ability to delete activities directly within the Standard Process Library

Endeavor-Level Master Data

• Introduced Endeavor-level master data configuration (see: Org Settings → Master Data → Endeavor)

Activity Flow Diagram Enhancements

• Show Hidden Predecessors/Successors: In Manual Mode, users can now right-click the cards and select “Show Hidden (# Levels)” to reveal activities hidden by filters. These cards will appear on the diagram even if they conflict with currently applied filters.‍

Card Rendering & Zoom-Based UI Optimization

• New zoom-based rendering thresholds for faster performance and cleaner visuals:
  • < 50% zoom: cards show title only
  • < 25% zoom: cards hide all text/icons, showing only color fill and border
• These defaults improve rendering speed and reduce clutter when zoomed out; custom thresholds will be available in a future update

Endeavor Creation - Org Admin users can create their own endeavors in their Organization

‍User Experience Improvements

• After refresh, the system now restores the user’s last viewed layout, including manual settings, filters, swimlanes, color codes, and endeavor context
• Endeavor Team Name now automatically updates when the Endeavor Name is changed (refresh to apply on cards)

Activity Flow Diagram Enhancements

• Fixed issue preventing arrow deletion in Manual Mode; arrowheads now consistently display

Activity List View (ALV) & Export

• Simplified duration, start, and finish date displays in both ALV and Excel export for easier reading

User Menu Update

• Added “Service Desk” option in the dropdown menu when users click their own initials

Card Layout & Display Enhancements

• Added a third line of text to all cards for more visible information
• Reduced white space and rearranged icons for a more compact layout
• Year added to milestone date displays for clearer context
• Adjusted text sizing for improved readability
• Replaced “Team” with “Responsible Member” as the visible field on cards

Milestone & Activity Spacing

• Reduced milestone size and further condensed spacing between cards for a streamlined view

Commitment Plan Updates

• Added functionality to mark items as “Not Completed as Planned / Ongoing to the Next Plan” directly from the Active Plan list

Search Function Fix

• Resolved issue preventing nodes or activities that were off-screen from appearing in Go-To Activity ID results

Performance Improvements

• Noticeable speed upgrade — additional performance enhancements will roll out throughout November.

Master Data Enhancements

• Added new field types: Open Text (up to 200 characters), Number, Percent, Date, and Time Scale — expanding beyond the previous single-select and multi-select options. The new Time Scale feature allows that master data field to be applied in the time scale swimlane, supporting non-date driven work processes and plans

Commitment Plan Updates

• Implemented auto-save logic for smoother workflow.
• Milestones now color-filter and metrics are calculate using the later of projected or target dates, providing a more accurate view of progress.

Activity List & Notifications

• Updated email notifications to include activity list and metric changes.
• Planned vs. actual duration fields are now separated in both the database and Activity List View (ALV).

User Interface & Usability

• Standardized all date input fields to the DD-MMM-YYYY format.
• Removed “bonus bridges” for a cleaner diagram display.
• Reduced spacing between activities to approximately two-thirds of the previous layout for better visibility.
• Fixed arrow deletion bug — arrows can no longer be accidentally removed.

Printing Enhancements

• Updated print logic so the entire diagram appears in print preview, even if users haven’t panned or zoomed to view all areas.
• Note: this fix increases print preview load time for very large diagrams. Small diagrams load instantly, while large ones (≈500 visible activities) may take several minutes to render. Performance for this feature will improve further in November updates.
