Oracle Project Portfolio Management Cloud in Innovation Management

Manage Innovation Management projects by associating work items such as concepts, proposals, and requirements specifications to a project task.

You can define rules to associate work items to project tasks and determine the completion of tasks based on work item statuses.

When you associate Oracle PLM objects with tasks in the Project Management work area, you can view the relationships in Oracle PLM pages also. Or, you can search for project tasks in Oracle PLM, and associate them with PLM objects as relationships.

Oracle Innovation Management Business Objects in Project Tasks

The user can manage product-development projects in Oracle Project Management Cloud, but only if the administrator has assigned the user with appropriate job roles, such as Project Manager or Team Member of projects, in the project plan.

Project managers who are assigned Product Manager, or Product Design Manager, can perform the following actions:

• Open and manage project work items in Oracle PLM.

• Navigate to Projects from the Relationships tab in Oracle PLM, and view summary information of the related object on hover.

• Define rules to specify statuses that determine when work items can be considered complete. When a work item reaches the appropriate status, the task is updated to complete.

• Set task completion rules, based on status, for each Oracle PLM business object that's associated with a project task.
