The Essential Project Forum

Hi Essential Project Team.

Thank you and Congratulations for the New release. : Very impressive and great step in the Essential Project journey.

Do you already have a Populated demo repository for the V6.5 ?

Thank you for the kind words. Re a demo repository, not currently, we are working on a completely fresh demo at the moment and will share once done but it will take a little while.

A few tips: for the roadmap enablement, it looks at strategic plans then the architecture states (in that order - plans take precedence) against elements and the toolbar only shows if it finds any plans or states. The end date you select shows the architecture at the point, i.e. the result of any changes enacted by plans or states that are complete by that date are shown.

A lot of the views are JSON based now, so some odd characters may cause a view to fail, we've escaped as many cases as we can find but may have missed a few, you can correct these yourself in the repository (look in the developer console if the view comes up blank and you'll see which data item is failing). Also do let us know if you find a character and we'll get that into our escape list. If it's a big problem then revert the report back to the previous version by adding '_v6' to the report XSL name and let us know as we'll look to address the problem.

We pushed the Launchpad Loaders out with v4 of Launchpad, you can use these to populate some of the new views, the latest release has some XSL files and a home page in the view library that will generate partially populated spreadsheets for the Import Utility to support the new views. It's a new way of doing loads and simplifies things a bit (do let us know if you find any bugs as it's been quite complex to set-up and we may have missed a few things).

Hope that helps
