Migration (JCMA)

BigTemplate can be migrated using JCMA.

Scheduling

When the “Start date” field is synchronized with “Start date” and the “End date” field is synchronized with “End date”:

• Changes made to the start and end dates resize a task.

When the “Start date” field is synchronized with “Original Estimate” and the “End date” field is synchronized either to “Original Estimate” or “Time Spent + Remaining Estimate”:

• Changes made to the end date resize the task.

• Changes made to the start date move the task. The scheduling mechanism moves a task and does NOT change the duration of a task.

Task period alignment

The "Task period alignment" section is redesigned. The "Precise alignment" option is available only for sequential boxes with sub-scope.

Filtering

Basic tasks are included when using the date filter and in the export with date range.

Search box

There is a switcher for JQL/TEXT search.

The colors of icons are adjusted:

Open

Open

The icon changes its color to red if the JQL query typed is incorrect.

Open

Dependencies (soft links)

Links marked as soft (go to dependency configuration to check the link mapping) can be used as structure builders.

Overview module

The "Closed date" column provides a possibility to compare the end date to the date of actual closing (changing the status to "Closed").

The column is not inline-editable and has the same aggregations as other types of the Date type i.e. None, Minimum, Maximum.

Usability

Change the width of the "Group" column when grouping tasks.

You can see the Gantt timeline with months and week numbers simultaneously.

New zoom steps on the Gantt timeline:

1. 2 weeks (min)

2. 1 month

3. 1 quarter

4. 6 months

5. 1 year

6. 2 years

7. 4 years (max)

An empty tab "Gantt" is removed from App Configuration > Modules.

Initiate a new dependency by dropping a dependency on the taskbar or on a dependency dot of a target task. A dot and half of a taskbar pulsate indicating that a dependency can be created.

Interface (color themes)

The color themes are no longer available.

• The color theme picker is removed from the "My settings" drop-down menu.

• The "Accent color" section is removed from the "Preferences" page.
