A discussion is attached to a specific Planzone element such as a to-do, activity, milestone, document or entire project. Team members can create a new discussion subject around one of these elements or reply to an existing discussion subject. This gives the whole team a tool for more relevant and faster decision-making as team members can quickly communicate on specific issues or topics related to a project element. Discussion comments have the option of being sent via email to extend communication outside of Planzone.
A new tab which aggregates all your Planzone discussions is now available in your personal workspace (access it by clicking on "Home" in the left menu). Here you can read and reply to all on-going discussions on projects where you are a team member. In the discussion list you'll see the discussion subject, how many comments there are in it and who replied last. Clicking on a discussion subject will open it to display all comments and give you the option to add a new one.
You'll also find a new "Comment" shortcut at the bottom of the Planzone navigator. Clicking on the icon will allow you to quickly create a new discussion subject on the projects where you are a team member.
