The new enhanced User Interface (UI) for Project Management feature is now available to test in your sandbox and 2021.1 production accounts. The new UI is optional. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with the new UI and test the new behavior, especially if you use any customizations or scripts on your production account.
Note: When this preference is enabled and you are editing a record in the new UI, you cannot use SuiteScript 1.0 code in the developer console of your browser to load records or access detailed record information. If you want to use this approach (for example, for debugging purposes), use SuiteScript 2.0 code instead.
The enhancements include:
- Customized Tasks and Task Hierarchy – On the Schedule tab, the Expand All/Collapse All button which currently expands the entire hierarchy of existing tasks on the project will be replaced by a downward-facing arrow. When you click this arrow, the system will expand only the tasks and task hierarchy that you wish to display.
- Streamlined Record Creation and Editing – Creating and editing records, for example, Project Tasks, Resource Allocation and Project Charge Rules, are now available from a pop-up window on the Project Form page.
- Improved Record Viewing – When you select the view mode for a record, the record opens in a new tab on your browser window.
