Editing a project or portfolio in the Tracker mobile app

In the app, you can change project and portfolio parameters, create links between objects, and attach widgets.

Changing basic parameters

  • To change the name, tap it and edit the text.

  • To change the description, go to the About the project section and tap Edit at the bottom.

  • To change the status, deadline, or person responsible for the project or portfolio, go to the Parameters section, tap the current value, and select a new one.

If objects share the same line of work, nest them within one another: issues in a project, projects in a portfolio. If objects belong to different lines of work but affect each other's completion, create a link between them.

Adding an issue to a project

Nest an issue in the project it belongs to:

  1. Open the project.

    2. Select the link type.

    3. Select the issue type.
