We’ve taken the first step in modernising the PPO experience with a sleek side panel that lets you view, add, or edit items in a single click – no new tabs, no extra steps. This is part of a broader rollout to make PPO quicker and easier to use.
We’ve rolled out a series of powerful enhancements to PPO’s Scheduler, including visual dependency arrows, colour-coded bars and milestones, support for lead and lag, column header wrapping, inclusive end dates for milestones, and more. These updates bring greater consistency across task pages and improved usability for project teams.
PPO’s API has been enhanced to support the update of custom list items via a new web method. This addition complements existing retrieval methods and enables seamless, automated list management for more efficient system integration.
In our latest product webinar, we introduced PPO’s new multiple resource assignment feature — a game-changer for task management and scheduling. We also shared the latest Scheduler enhancements that make planning even more intuitive. Plus, in our client spotlight, Certa Ireland showcased how automating document approvals with PPO has improved efficiency, reduced risk, and strengthened governance.
Want cleaner, more impactful PPO reports and dashboards? In this quick PPO Tips video, Andre Norris, Business Development Manager at PPO, shares how he uses Markdown to format content — including bullets, bold text, and more — for better readability and presentation.
We’ve rolled out three impactful updates to the grid widget — all inspired by real user feedback. You can now copy rows with a click, control how interval dates are calculated, and enjoy a more intuitive Edit in Grid experience. Whether you’re planning, editing, or duplicating data, the grid is now faster, clearer, and easier to use than ever.
We’ve made some exciting updates to the calendar widget! In response to client feedback, we’ve enhanced its functionality by removing the five-event limit and introducing event filtering. These improvements give users greater control and visibility over their calendars, making it easier to stay on top of what matters most.
We’re excited to introduce the latest addition to PPO’s growing library of widgets — the Line Graph Widget! Designed to help you visualise trends and changes over time, the new widget is perfect for tracking metrics like costs and benefits.
One question that comes up regularly from programme and project managers is “How do I group my related projects and programmes in PPO?” The answer depends on what you want to achieve by grouping them.
We’ve just added a handy enhancement to PPO’s standard usage report — you can now group by User Group! Until now, you could group usage by various resource fields (like department or job title), but not by the actual user groups set up in PPO. That’s changed.
