Project Quality Widget
Overview
Have you ever added tasks to a project and later realized that the new tasks don’t meet established standards for scheduling and reporting? The Project Quality Widget can solve this issue for you by enforcing specific validation rules. Once an organization defines the types of validation rules they want to perform, the Project Quality Widget will search the project and identify instances where these criteria are met. Validation issues are noted in the project and also in a dialog which provides a summary of the conditions found, and also provides guidance for how to address specific conditions.
The Project Quality Widget provides a summary of the conditions found and also guidance for how to address specific conditions.
You can also filter your project to see only those tasks that meet specific validation conditions to help focus your analysis.
The Project Quality Widget identifies project tasks that do not meet established organization standards for scheduling and reporting.
