Apps Overview
Depending on your privileges, you can work with the following apps:
Cost and Funds: The Cost and Funds app enables cost engineers and project and program managers to capture project and program budgets and to track, manage, and report on project and program costs. At the portfolio level, create budget planning scenarios to select projects to execute based on budget projections and fund allocation.
Custom Logs: The Custom Log app enables you to view your custom logs and associate files to log items. Create custom logs in the Summary & Settings at the workspace level or at the individual project or program level.
Dashboards: The Dashboard app enables you to view and manage dashboards and charts. View dashboards for workspaces, projects, programs, and portfolios.
Files: Use the Files app to upload and manage the files associated with your organization's projects, portfolios, programs, and ideas. Annotate and discuss files for seamless collaboration. At the workspace level, add folder templates to standardize folder and file use across your organization.
Forms: The Forms app lists forms that have been made available for use with projects, portfolios, programs, and ideas in the open workspace. When you open a form on the Forms page, it shows information related to the open object.
Global Admin settings: Use the Global Admin settings to configure application settings and labels for your organization, add companies and users, assign licenses to users, and configure integration parameters between Oracle Primavera Cloud and external applications.
Integration: The Integration app enables you to run and monitor synchronization business flows set up by your administrator. You can use business flows to create or update your Primavera Cloud projects using data from external applications such as P6 EPPM, Primavera Gateway, or Microsoft Project.
Portfolio Analysis: The Portfolio Analysis app provides a variety of tools to monitor the performance of your portfolios. Create evaluation matrixes to qualitatively prioritize and select the right projects to pursue. Measure and analyze project performance with scorecard, spending, and investor map views.
Project Team: The Project Team app provides an overview of the companies and team members working on your project.
Related Items: Use the Related Items app to link an idea to a similar idea or project.
Reports: The Reports app enables you to leverage user-defined reports to communicate detailed or summarized information about your organization's data.
Resources: The Resources app enables resource managers and project managers to maintain an inventory of resources and roles that can be allocated to projects. The app provides for the analysis of resource and role allocations and for the review of assignment data at the project level and the workspace level. At the portfolio level, perform high-level unit allocation planning for the roles in your portfolios. Create resource planning scenarios to select projects to execute based on role availability.
Risk: The Risk app enables you to capture risk threats and opportunities in the risk register, develop and apply risk assessment criteria, and evaluate the schedule and cost impacts on your projects. Use the app to create risk response actions to control risk impact, and then run Monte Carlo risk analysis simulations to generate statistical estimates for pre-response and post-response scenarios. Model the probability of different weather events, and then include this information in the risk analysis to estimate the impact of work interruptions due to weather on your activity dates and costs.
Schedule: The Schedule app enables you to organize and manage a schedule of activities required to complete a project. Specify activity relationships, resource assignments, and date constraints, and then logically sequence your activities using the Critical Path Method. Add units and costs at the assignment and activity levels to quantify the cost and and effort of the work being performed. Monitor resource and role assignments and availability to eliminate overallocation. A variety of tools enable you to set baselines, perform what-if planning, track schedule performance and earned value, and monitor schedule health. Compare two versions of your project schedule to ensure accurate progress is being recorded. At the program level, view how the projects within a program are performing over time based on project milestones.
Scope: The Scope app provides an install-based deliverables management solution. It enables project managers and cost controllers to define the deliverables, materials, or products required to complete a project. The app enables tracking of the installation and cost of the scope items without requiring a detailed schedule.
Strategic Alignment: The Strategic Alignment app enables you to align projects with corporate strategies and monitor performance against strategy targets. Rank projects, programs, and ideas against evaluation categories defined at the workspace level to determine the evaluation score.
Tasks: The Tasks app provides basic work management functionality, enabling you to break down project work into tasks. You can assign companies responsible for work to your project, and then add tasks detailing the work to be performed and the company that will perform it. Create and monitor the constraints that must be resolved before your tasks can begin. Track task commitment history, status, and progress on your project. Assign individual tasks to activities or manage tasks independent of your CPM schedule. Plan work at a daily level, capturing task details and statusing tasks on a virtual representation of your task planning board.
Workflows and Forms: Use the Workflows and Forms app to automate and customize complicated business processes, like submitting and reviewing project proposals. Workflows can make processes that involve many roles and steps more manageable. Forms enable workflow task performers to view and provide information about objects that workflows run against.
