Major features

P2ware Planner Premium is the most advanced and effective project management application for personal computers. It has all P2ware Planner Professional features and allows to plan template customisation according to various and often non-standard requirements. Such customisation includes adding new properties, categories, mathematical formulas, changing appearance and a layout of the user interface or even hiding selected views, relations and properties. Due to these rich customisation features, one can create templates that are either very simple or extremely complicated depending on project, industry or preferences.

With P2ware Planner Premium you can:
  • all features available in P2ware Planner Professional,
  • add new properties to plan template,
  • define logical and mathematical formulas to compute property values dependent on properties of the plan other objects (e.g. products, activities, risks),
  • hide unused views, properties, relations or perspectives and make plan templates as simple and useful as they can be.

P2ware Planner Premium, due to its features, may be used not only by professional project managers for managing projects, but also as the element of a project management system. Planner Premium is also used by people supporting projects to create suitable plan templates and customized user interfaces.

Plan templates customization

All plan objects may be adjusted to individual requirements. Due to the fact that all plan settings are saved in a plan and plan templates, it is recommended for an organisation to have at least one licence for Planner Premium or Planner for PSO. By using P2ware Planner Premium or P2ware Planner for PSO, the organization can define the information structure of plans at any moment of creating project management environment and, if needed, adjust it later.

New properties

Adding new properties to plan object description (e.g. product, risk, activity) is easy and thanks to that organisations may adjust plan data to projects or industry without a need to adjust the organisation to the software package.

For all types of plan objects you can add new properties like:

  • Sheet
  • Check list
  • Dropdown list
  • Image
  • RAG colour signals
  • URL
  • The text of one or more lines
  • Dotted Identifier
  • and many more...
Own formulas

It is also possible to add properties which values are computed based on other properties. Such properties are called formulas and by using them you may create automatically computed signals, cost summaries, filters, and validate important data or create summaries. Formulas are automatically and instantly updated so that a user is constantly updated with all important indicators. Output of the formula may be text, URL, number, traffic light or any other popular data type. Formulas may be also used in report templates.

User interface customization

Planner Premium allows to customise applications of user interface and adjust it to user preferences or requirements. It is possible to create multiple perspectives of editors (user interface used to describe plan objects) and each perspective can have a different set of properties or formulas, different sizes and tabs. They are configured as if they were built-in properties added by P2ware.

Hiding unused functionalities

Not all projects require all functionalities of P2ware Planner and in various types of projects it is quite common to use different sets of views and functionalities. By using Planner Premium, it is possible to create plan templates that hide unused functionalities. Thanks to that, project managers and project leaders work with plans with simplified user interface, avoid information overload and may focus on key project data that has real value for the organisation.
