One of the highlights this month is the Tokyo Olympic Games, followed closely by our latest release—2.5.4! Let’s take a look at some of the gold-medal enhancements we’re bringing your way:

Standard Work

We’re pushing the standard by improving the standard… work! 2.5.4 brings you the ability to set Responsible Team Roles and Locations on Standard Work Items. 

Another highlight of 2.5.4 is the ability to easily copy Standard Work Groups! Copying a Standard Work Group will copy the Standard Work Group’s Name, Description, Files, Links, and any included Standard Work Items into a new Standard Work Group. 

When creating (or editing!) a Standard Work Group, utilize the Advanced Filter to set additional rules for Available and Automatically Created Standard Work. 

As a bonus, Items using this Advanced Filter functionality will also have a clear indication of when the Standard Work becomes available. Don’t forget to check your notifications! You might just earn a Badge for clearing them.

Reports

The Impact filter is now available on all Impact Reports! Choosing an Impact (or two, or three!) with that filter will limit the Report to only show the selected Impact(s). 

When filtering a Report by Reference Date, you’ll be happy to see our newest filter criteria—Realized Date! This filter is available for all Impact Reports. 

Groups

With the new Groups feature, you can group your Network Locations, Roles, and Templates to create a simpler, customized experience for Users based on their Group. With the addition of Groups, our People Filter’s Additional field also allows you to filter for Users with the Multi-Group Administrator and Receives Support Requests permissions.
