This Week in Bamboo (May 17th - May 23rd, 2009)
Published 05/27 courtesy of Bamboo Solutions CommunityAgain many patches and enhancements were released this week at Bamboo. The highlight of the week, which is worth mentioning, is the major enhancement release of SharePoint Project Portfolio Dashboard R1.5. See my announcement blog for more details. SharePoint Project Portfolio Dashboard R1.5 contains two new additional Web Parts, Bamboo KPI Column and Project Portfolio Dashboard Mapping Web Part, which together as a set of tools will help you not only effectively plan, manage and report at the project level but allows you to roll up your reports to a centralized corporate level. This allows your organization to not only consume the data at a corporate level and proceed with best practices, but utilize the resources as a whole and proactively communicate the problems and needs.
See more details for the individual patches or enhancements below.
SharePoint Project Portfolio Dashboard (SA35 R1.5) -
PPD 1.5 is package as a bundle of 3 Web Parts: Bamboo KPI Column, Bamboo Project Dashboard Data Mapping and Project Portfolio Dashboard.
