Enhanced File Uploader and Microsoft Project Import Tool
by | No comments
We are happy to announced the features release for May 2011.
The main features of this release are the enhanced Flash-based file
uploader and the Microsoft Project import tool.
Enhanced File Uploader
We have added support for an enhanced file uploader that
allows you to upload files without having to reload the current
page. This allows for a more responsive user experience as it
allows us to refresh only the parts of the page that have changed.
The enhanced uploader allows you to upload multiple files at once
(for items that support multiple attachments) and includes a
progress bar for each file being uploaded so you can quickly see
how much of your files have been uploaded. The enhanced uploader
uses Flash and will revert to the original non-Flash file uploader
if you do not have Flash installed on your web browser.
Microsoft Project Import
We have heard from many of you that you prefer to plan your
projects in Microsoft Project and then run them from TeamWork Live.
Starting today, that process has gotten a whole lot easier as you
can now import your Microsoft Project into TeamWork Live using our
new import tool. We support importing Microsoft Project files in
both native (MPP) and XML formats. To import a project, click on
the "Projects" link from the "Admin" menu and then click on the
"Import project" link on the right side of the page. You will be
asked to select the Microsoft Project file you want to upload and
you will then have the opportunity to map your Microsoft Project
resources to your TeamWork Live users. The Microsoft Project import
tool allows you to take advantage of the power of Microsoft
Project for planning and the collaboration and transparency
features of TeamWork Live for running your projects.
Miscellaneous
We have added an additional priority option, critical, that
you can use when creating milestones and tasks.
