Update Multiple Fields in Portfolio Tree

Agility now has the option to efficiently manage users' portfolio by enabling bulk updates of multiple fields for selected items within the Portfolio Tree.

Team Asset Restrictions

Agility now has restriction on who can Create, Edit, Inactivate or Delete Team Assets. Earlier any user who was a Team Member could Create, Edit, Inactivate or Delete team. With this enhancement only the members with following roles can perform these actions:

  • System Administrator
  • Member Administrator
  • Project Administrator
  • Project Lead

Now a user with a Team Member role will not be able to edit the team assets, as these options are disabled in Agility for that role.

Team Asset Restriction

New Required Fields Page

Agility has moved the Required Fields option to the new Required Fields page. Earlier, the Required Fields option was accessible within the Project Workspace's Asset page and Global Asset Settings page. The Required Fields option allows users to designate specific fields as mandatory for asset records, this has now been centralized and streamlined for improved usability.

How to Access and Make Fields Required or Mandatory

  1. Click the hamburger menu Hamburger icon > Admin > Required Fields .
  2. In the Project Workspace area, on the right, expand the asset item that contains the field(s) you want to change.
  3. Select the Require check box next to each field you want to make required or mandatory.
  • Required field settings apply globally and cannot be configured differently across projects and project workspaces.
  • Some fields are not listed or are grayed out because they are required by the system and cannot be removed.
  • Only members with an Admin Privileges role of "System Admin" can make fields mandatory

Required Fields

note

Users who previously looked for this setting within project assets or global assets will now find a message informing them of this change and directing them to the new dedicated page.

Digital.ai OKRs

Enhancements and bug fixes in OKRs.

  • Added the ability to Share Private and Public read-only OKRs with other users
  • User Interface and Usability enhancements
  • Added the ability to add Custom Fields to Objectives

Ability to Share Private and Public Read only OKRs

Agility users now have the ability to share their Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) with specific individuals within the organization, enabling controlled collaboration and visibility. A new Shared With field has been implemented, allowing OKR owners to grant specific colleagues access to view and/or edit their OKRs, regardless of the OKR's overall visibility setting (Private, Publicly Readable, Publicly Editable).

Granular Access Control

  • View Access: For Publicly Readable OKRs, all users can see the OKR, but only the owner and those explicitly shared with can edit them.
  • Edit Access: Users explicitly added to the Shared With field gain full editing rights to the OKR, including modifying fields, adding associated assets, linking objectives, commenting on key results, copying, duplicating, and deleting the OKR.
  • Private OKR Sharing: Even when an OKR is set to Private (normally visible only to admins and the owner), the owner can share it with specific individuals, granting them full editing access.

Procedure to Share Private OKRs with Other users

  1. Log in to Agility, click the hamburger menu > OKRs.
  2. In the OKRs page, select an OKR which you want to Share with other users.
  3. Enter the username, click the username from the list to Share the OKR.
  4. To remove a user from the Share With field, click the X icon next to their name.

Share OKR
