About OnePager Version 6.0

0.4-60 Not Edited Beyond This Point.

OnePager Pro (OPP) and Express (OPX) version 6.0 provides additional capabilities for the user as described in this article below. OnePager version 6.0's new features are a response to our customers.

Conditional Import

Version of OnePager Pro and Express prior to 6.0 required you to insert a column (i.e., Flag field) into your source plan that tells OnePager which rows to import.

1) There are occasions where you may not be able to modify a Microsoft Project or Excel source plan thus you are unable to add the required import control columns.

2) There are also occasions, probably more frequently experienced, where you may need to go back, change a Flag field.

3) Finally, there are occasions where you would like to import a source plan row but only when the contents of a specified column holds a certain value or range of values.

4) For all three of the above examples described above before version 6.0 making appropriate changes required starting over.

5) Version 6.0 of all our desktop products now have the capability for you to establish "rules" that are applied at the point where OnePager imports your source file(s) such that it is easy to first specify and subsequently change the source file columns to maximize your control over the rows that OnePager imports.

6) Please take a moment to look at the example provided in the link just below:

Expanded Row and Task Labels

Expanded Row Labels

OnePager Pro/Express previously supported just one row labeling option.

1) With version 6.0, OnePager will support up to five (5) additional snapshot-independent row labels which will appear on the left side of the project view and immediately to the right of the row label if it is displayed.

2) Controls for these additional row labels' is provided in the Project-View Properties and Template form's Rows/Swimlanes tab in the Labels" group of controls.

3) With these controls you may specify what Microsoft Project or Excel source plan column's data should be imported to populate the column in the project view. With the same controls you mat format the properties you desire OnePager to apply to the data imported in terms of font style, alignment, format, and row-label height.

Task Labels

4) Before version 6.0 you could create task labels that included the Task Name, Start Date, Finish Date, % Complete, and UniqueID. Version 6.0 expands the amount of information that can be associated with a task label by providing you with snapshot-dependent access to data from columns in your source data plan(s). Once so specified, these data may be formatted and presented with the task or milestone label in the project view.

5) Control over the selection and formatting of this additional task label data is provided in the Project-View Properties and Template form's Task Bars and Milestones tab by clicking the Gantt Bar Label Properties or the Milestone Label Properties buttons as illustrated below:

6) Clicking either of the buttons shown above will bring up an expanded form as shown below:

7) An example showing the usage of Expanded Rows and Task Labels is given in the article whose link is below:

Retroactive Column Mapping

1) Where the new Conditional Import feature of OnePager version 6.0 allows you to reconfigure the import of Microsoft Project or Excel rows before the project view is created, the Retroactive Column Mapping feature allows you to reconfigure your column mapping (i.e., use of source plan columns) after a project view is created.

2) Like the Conditional Import feature, this feature is designed to eliminate the need for you to start over if, for any reason, you wish to utilize a different or additional source plan column for another purpose.

3) Our intent here is to provide you a more efficient way for you to create a new project view for the first time and to efficiently tailor it to fit your schedule conversation needs.

a) As such, the feature is limited to single snapshot project views.
b) This feature does not increase the number of columns that can be mapped from a source plan to your project view. Rather it makes it much easier to make a change to the column mapping after a first project view is created and needs to be modified with respect to column mapping.
