Manage program objects with the Program Board

You can use the Program Board to quickly view and manage program objects, such as deliverables, risks, and dependencies, across plan levels and events. The board displays below the program Timeline and gives you a customizable and interactive graphical view of your program levels, events, and objects. Dragging items on the Program Board functions the same as performing a cut and paste action.

Procedure

1. Search for a program, project, or subproject using the search box or navigate to it in your folder structure and then open it.
2. Click More Commands > View > Program Board. The Program Board panel opens.
3. From the Set Context list, select the context, such as deliverables, risks, or issues, to set which program objects display on the board.
4. From the Timeline, select the programs, projects, subprojects, and events that you want to display in the board view. As you select them, the objects appear in the Program Board panel.
5. Click View. The Program Board opens below the timeline and displays the programs, projects, subprojects, or events you selected. The program objects, based on your chosen context setting, display under their associated object.
6. Drag the program objects to different programs, projects, subprojects, or events, as needed.
7. Click Close to close the Program Board.
8. (Optional) Click More Commands > View > Program Board again, but choose a different context, such as risks, to manage other program objects.

Note: You can click Delete next to a program, project, subproject, or event displayed in the Program Board panel to remove it from the board view if you do not need it for a selected context.

Results

Once you have finished managing your program objects, you can review the different plan levels or events and verify the objects are now in your desired location.
