Manual task duration is a thing of the past! We’ve implemented calculated task duration regardless of how you load your tasks into PPO. This enhancement helps streamline tasks within PPO which will hopefully lead to improved accuracy and most importantly save you valuable time.

This administration enhancement has huge potential for streamlining data inputs, improving user experience and can even serve as an onboarding tool for the creation and automation of project artefacts like demand requests and project charters. Simply put, default values are pre-populated data inputs that users can either accept or modify.
