Hello Babynus,
We now have since V4.2 I think the possibility to delete a parent project along with everything below it (activities, subprojects, etc.).
I thought this was also the case for closing projects, but apparently not...
Is it possible to add the same mechanism (with confirmation of course) when closing a project ?
Thanks!
The mecanism exists, but constraints are not the same.
Deletetion is more easy to be able to delete copied project.
Closure requires some real work : for instance, all activities should be manually closed, and auto closing activities may lead to unexpected behavior.
The easiest to close all activities (if needed) is to use multiple update screen to change status.
I see.
But is there some new functionality on project closure ? I got the idea from the release notes :
>Dispatch "closed" tag with confirmation instead of blocking
But not sure how that works...
Hi,
Closure of project can now auto-close some sub items with confirmation.
Have a look at $_closeRelationShip in SqlElement.php.
"Project" => array("Action"=>"confirm",
"Activity"=>"control",
"Affectation"=>"cascade",
"Command"=>"control",
"Document"=>"confirm",
"Issue"=>"confirm",
"IndividualExpense"=>"confirm",
"ProjectExpense"=>"confirm",
"Term"=>"confirm",
"Bill"=>"confirm",
"Milestone"=>"confirm",
"Project"=>"control",
"Risk"=>"confirm",
"Ticket"=>"control",
"Decision"=>"confirm",
"Meeting"=>"confirm",
"Opportunity"=>"confirm",
"PeriodicMeeting"=>"confirm",
"VersionProject"=>"cascade",
"Question"=>"confirm",
"Quotation"=>"confirm",
"Requirement"=>"confirm",
"TestCase"=>"confirm",
"TestSession"=>"confirm"),
This means that Actions can be closed with confirmation ("confirm"), but Activity should be manually closed before ("control"), while Affectations will be closed without requiring confirmatin ("cascade")
Nice, that's very clear - thanks again ! 🙂
