Configure Project Execution Management Applications
A project application administrator can add additional attributes to standard objects or create new custom objects to meet specific business needs using Application Composer. In Project Execution Management applications, using a sandbox, you can configure project resource requests, assignments, deliverables, issues, and backlog items.
For example, you can add an issue category attribute to drive additional information that you need to collect for a particular type of issue in the standard Issues object. You can also create a custom Risk object to capture and track risks.
After you create a custom object, you can:
-
Use the REST service to create, view, and update the custom object.
-
Create a new subject area to report on the custom object.
Since your organization can view the changes you make at runtime immediately, you must first create or select a sandbox and isolate your changes. A sandbox provides an independent development environment so that you can fully test your changes before publishing the sandbox and making the changes available to your organization.
Navigate to Application Composer from Tools and select ERP and SCM Cloud in the Application field. You can view the objects for Project Execution Management applications under Standard Objects menu.
