Hi everyone!
A small setting that can save you a lot of manual work 🙌💜
You can now set a project role as the default assignee on a planning category in the planning template. When the category is activated in the planner on a project, the Responsible field is automatically filled with the person who holds that role on that specific project.
Added
New field "Default assignee" in the edit dialog for planning categories (Settings → Planning templates)
Choose one of your firm's project roles as the default, for example Project Manager or Engagement Manager
When the category is activated in the planner, the Responsible field is automatically filled with the person who holds that role on that project
The responsible can be overridden manually per project if needed
Why is this useful?
One template can now be used across the entire portfolio, but each project gets its own person, not one fixed person across all clients. Fewer manual choices, and less risk of the field being left empty.
