Spring 22 - Release Notes | Inspire Planner Help Center

See below for what's coming with Inspire Planner's Spring 22 Release.

Release Date:

Sandboxes: April 27, 2022
Production: May 11, 2022

New Features	Description	Impact/Action Needed

External Portal - Platform Upgrade	We've upgraded our platform to improve the overall security and performance of the external portal. This upgrade will enable future feature enhancements.	No action required

Project - Support for multi-currency in Gantt (Rolling Release)	The Inspire Planner Project Schedule now detects if multi-currency is enabled for the org. If multi-currency is enabled, then Currency Fields on the Project and related records (i.e. Project Team, Project Task, Salesforce Task, etc.) display the appropriate currency symbol based on the currency that is set for the Project. If multi-currency is not enabled, then Project Schedule will look at the org currency and will display currency fields using the appropriate currency symbol.	No action required

Project - Actual Finish Date added for Tasks Learn More	We have added a new field in the Project Task called "Actual Finish Date" which will automatically update with the date of when the Task was actually completed. This will then make it easier for Project Managers to see the actual completion date. This new field will be visible on the Project Schedule as a new column.	If you have custom permission sets, you will need to grant access to the "Actual Finish Date" field in the Project Task object.

Project Stitching - Added the ability to automate feature	We've added a new custom setting called "Opportunity Auto Launch Project Stitching" in Inspire Planner Config where you can enter the API name of your custom checkbox field on the Opportunity Object. When custom checkbox is set to TRUE, it will invoke the Project Stitching automation.	No action required

Admin - Permission Set Inventory	We have a new help article that outlines all the permissions that are part of the Inspire Planner Standard User - v1.12 Permission Set. Click to see help article.	No action required


Enhancements	Description	Impact/Action Needed

Resources - Add Custom Setting to define default Planned Effort	We've added a new custom setting called "Default Planned Effort" to the Inspire Planner Config custom settings. This custom setting will allow Salesforce System Administrators to define what the default allocation should be if Planned Effort is NULL.	No action required

Project Task - Added identifier for Booking Tasks	Booking tasks were not differentiated from standard project tasks. This would result in issues when attempting to implement custom validation rules on the project task that should not include booking tasks. New identifier can be used to include or exclude booking tasks as needed.	If you have custom permission sets, you will need to grant access to the "Booking Task" field in Project Task Object. You will also need to add it to your Project Task page layout.

Project - Reconcile Data Button now considers alternate data access scenarios	Reconcile Data Button on Projects now considers alternate data access scenarios. When Time Entries are created, manual sharing records are also automatically created for the Project Owner which will give them access to all Time Entries related to the Project. The Reconcile Rollup Data button on the Project should be run by either the Project Owner or the Salesforce Administrator which will then rollup Time Entries in real time. If a user who is not the Project Owner or Salesforce Administrator clicks on the button, an error message will display onscreen.	Please go to the Inspire Planner Settings page and click on the Reconcile Data button for the setting called "Reconcile Collaborator and Roll-up Data". This will invoke a process that creates manual sharing records for existing Time Entries for Project Owners.

Project - Task Start/Finish Dates and Duration now default to a blank value when in Automatic Scheduling Mode	When a Project is set to Automatic Scheduling Mode, the Task Start/Finish Dates and Duration now default to a blank value when new Tasks are created. Task Start/Finish Dates and Duration will calculate only when filled in and when Predecessors are defined.	No action required

Project - Project Team members automatically added as Project Collaborators	When adding users as Project Team members, it now also automatically adds them as Project Collaborators with "Viewer" permissions.	No action required

Project - Added logic to auto save Project after sysRecalcStartDate executes	We've added logic that will automatically save the Project after Project Task dates are re-calculated when sysRecalcStartDate setting on the Project is set to TRUE.	No action required

Project - Added the ability to exclude Baseline when using Save As (Clone) Feature	We've added a new option when using Save As (Clone) Feature to allow users to exclude the Baselines.	No action required

Project - Added a Flag to bypass roll-ups	We've added a flag called "sysBypassBeaconRollup" on Projects to allow users to exclude the Project from our standard roll-ups. When this checkbox is set to TRUE, the Project is excluded from any Actual/Planned Effort roll-ups and Project Team roll-ups.	If you have custom permission sets, you will need to grant access to the "sysBypassBeaconRollup" field. You will also need to add it to your Project page layout.


Resolved Issues	Description	Impact/Action Needed

Batch Job - Apex Error	Users were incorrectly receiving an error email related to orphaned Time Entries (where the Project Task a Time Entry is related to, was deleted). Error received was: Apex script unhandled exception by user/organization: 0051U000000i0GW/00D1U000000DdGA.

Time Tracker - Custom picklist field reverts to default after save	Resolved an issue where if there is a custom picklist field in the Time Entry field set and if the picklist had a default value, when user creates a new Time Entry and selects a value other than default, the system was saving the time entry record with the default value.	No action required

Time Tracker - Non-Project Tasks now displaying	Resolved an issue where Non-Project Tasks were not displaying in the Time Tracker tab.	No action required

Experience Cloud (Communities) - Issue with some Pages failing to load	Resolved an issue where some pages would fail to load in Communities due to a missing namespace prefix.	No action required

Project - Task Subject incorrectly mapping to Project Task Name during auto-assignment using Project Teams and Roles	Resolved an issue where when tasks are auto-assigned via Project Teams and Roles, the Task Subject was incorrectly mapping to the Project Task Name field instead of the Task Subject field in Salesforce Task. Hence, when the Task Subject is greater than 80 characters, the Salesforce Task Subject was getting truncated.	No action required

Project - Constraints being added to new tasks	Resolved an issue where when a Project is in Automatic scheduling mode, new tasks added were defaulting to a Constraint Type of "Start no earlier than" if current date was greater than Task Start Date.

No action required

Project - Checklist Dialogue does not display Date/Time based on User's Locale	Resolved an issue where the Completed Date/Time within the Checklist Dialogue window was not displaying according to user's local setting.	No action required

Project - Clone is including Actual Effort	When using Save As/Clone feature, the new Project was erroneously including the Actual Effort for Project Tasks. Since Actual Effort is a roll-up of Time Entries, these values should not be copied over to the new Project.	No action required

Project - Column Filters not saving	Resolved an issue where the column filters were not saving when the Project is saved.	No action required
