Workpackage Templates

Added by Marc Burk over 9 years ago

Hello I’ve an idea for a feature which i want to discuss with you.

What do you think about the possibilty to create a workpackage template for each project. To be more flexible it could be possible to create a template for each workpackage typ.

This would make it easier for the users to fulfill the request/bug report requirements for a project. This also would help the OpenProject.org to let the user create better bug reports! And the users would be guided more. I think some of the OP Devs already using a template. But its just copy & pasted and no one else have access to it.

I think the templates should be placed in the project configuration.

If a user creates a new workpackage the template is filled as default description. in further steps i could imaging that a whole workpackage with all fields could be templated.

At the moment the workpackages have no form and doesnt guides a user which information is needed for a good workpackage.

what do you think about it?

with kind regards
mvollmer

Hello Marc,

thanks for your suggestion.
This is a great idea.

In fact, the feature to configure the work package form on a type and project basis (e.g. to specify which attributes should be shown and which values are set by default) has been requested several times.
This may very well be a topic for future development after completing the topics currently on the development timeline

Best,
Robin
