The integration between Outlook and Seavus Project Viewer enables
users such as team members, executives and external project stakeholders to
have a consolidated view over all of their project tasks and more
effective control over the progress of each project.
|
|
|
Let suppose that the project manager has sent the team members tasks through
Microsoft® Outlook. The team members can
import them in Seavus Project Viewer by
using the "Import from" feature. Before the import is done, the user will view a window,
where the following information regarding the tasks are shown:
|
| . |
Tasks Name |
| . |
Notes |
| . |
%Completed |
| . |
Duration |
| . |
Start Date |
| . |
Due Date |
|
|
By default, all tasks are select. If the user doesn't want to import all tasks, he\she can disable all tasks and then select the appropriate one.
|
|
|
The task(s) from the project plan will be exported from
Seavus Project Viewer into the "Task" tab in
Microsoft® Outlook. Before the user uses the "Export to." feature he\she must
decide which tasks are going to be exported to Microsoft®
Outlook. Seavus Project Viewer
can export the following tasks:
|
| . |
Entire project plan |
| . |
Filtered tasks or |
| . |
Selected tasks |
|
|
If some task exists in the "Task" tab from the same project, with the "Delete
any existing tasks in this category" all tasks will be rewritten with the latest one.
Seavus Project Viewer gives an opportunity to
the users to set a reminder for each task. If the user selects this feature, the following
options are available in the drop-down list:
|
| . |
Actual Start |
| . |
Start Date |
| . |
Actual Finish |
| . |
Finish. |
