Issue/Introduction

• In Clarity PPM 15.6, the fields we are able to filter on in the New User Experience (UX) tasks section of a project seems to be restricted to just a few fields?
• Is it possible to add more, and if not, is there any plans to add this in a future release?

Environment

Release : 15.6

Component : CA PPM SAAS STUDIO

Resolution

1. In Clarity PPM 15.6, there is no way to add any additional fields to the New UX Task filter.

• For 15.6, below are the fields you can filter on, these are listed in the documentation at: New User Experience: Project Phases, Milestones, Tasks, and To-Do Items

  • Type
  • Status
  • Finish
  • Phase
  • Task Owner
  • Team Member

     2. However additional filter capability is available starting in Clarity PPM 15.7

• On the Tasks tab, the filter capability has been enhanced, and by clicking the Add Filter button (as long as the attribute has an API Attribute ID), you will be able to add the field and then filter based on your requirement.
• Changes below starting in 15.7 referenced at: New User Experience: Project Phases, Milestones, Tasks, and To-Do Items
