Monthly Feature Highlights: More Control for Better Collaboration
New month, new updates! Last month, we focused on giving you more control over your schedules while making collaboration even smoother. From enhanced permissions to smarter ways to involve trade partners, these updates help you plan with confidence and execute with ease.
Here’s what’s new in Planera ⬇️
Plotter printing just got easier!
Planera now supports multiple paper sizes, including 11x17, 17x22, 24x36, and 30x42, making it easier than ever to print large format schedules for your team.
Involve your trade partners without losing control with Contributor Role
Now, you can invite users to your project as contributors who can create activities but can only edit the ones they’ve added. This ensures clear ownership while allowing more team members to contribute.
Lock in your schedule and prevent additional changes with read-only mode
Lock any project version to prevent unauthorized changes while keeping it accessible for comments. Ideal for approved baselines, this feature helps maintain schedule integrity. Project owners can toggle Read-Only mode as needed, with automatic notifications to all project users.
Set start dates more easily & accurately in the gantt view
Now, when you drag a bar in the Gantt chart, you'll see a preview of the new start date right above the bar. This gives you pinpoint accuracy when adjusting activities.
