Feature Enablement
26B Update Features Covered:
1. Labor Costing by Project Role
Quick Notes:
Labor costing by project role enables precise cost tracking and margin analysis by aligning actual labor costs with project roles used in planning and billing, resulting in improved accuracy and decision making. Optionally include project role cost rate schedules in labor costing overrides or project role as a determinant in project cost rate overrides.
Business benefits:
- Improves accuracy and decision making through precise cost tracking and margin analysis by aligning actual labor costs with project roles used in planning and billing.
- Eliminates the need for complex workarounds involving elaborate mappings of internal human resource worker jobs with jobs representing project roles or extensive use of job cost rate overrides.
2. Award-Specific Viewer Access
Quick Notes:
This feature enhances transparency by allowing the award team to view award details as needed, without granting unnecessary editing permissions. The award-specific view access is driven by a new data security privilege and condition, assigned to the user using a custom job role and custom project role if needed or the Award Participant seeded project role.
Business benefits:
- Enhanced Data Security: Restricts award data exposure.
- Improved Collaboration: Enables the entire award team to have visibility into relevant awards without editing rights.
- Operational Clarity: Prevents accidental updates or changes to awards outside a user’s scope.
3. Replacement Nomination Approval Workflow
Quick Notes:
This feature allow project managers to approve or reject nominated replacement resources directly from actionable notifications. Resources and stakeholders are notified of assignment changes timely, increasing transparency and strengthening collaboration in the resource assignment process.
Business benefits:
- Streamline communication and reduce delays by simplifying the approval and notification process for replacement nominations.
- Enable faster decision-making and ensure all participants are promptly informed, supporting efficient resource management and timely project delivery.
