To enable seamless cross-functional collaboration within SIMCEL, this feature aims to support Integrated Business Planning (IBP) workflows by providing users with the tools to communicate, comment in context, and align through plan-specific process flows. These collaborative capabilities ensure transparency, accountability, and efficient decision-making across all planning stages.
Object Detail View Drawers
Object Detail View Drawers allow you to open and explore details of Plans, Scenarios, and Events without leaving your current view. Each drawer provides:
- A structured view of key attributes of the object.
- A comments section where users can exchange feedback in context.
- An activity log to track changes and updates over time.
You can easily move between linked objects and return to the previous drawer with the back option, making navigation smooth and intuitive.
Contextual Comments
Contextual Comments make it easy to discuss directly within the planning objects themselves. Instead of relying on external channels, conversations are captured where the work happens.
- Supports threaded comments, grouped by day with the most recent on top.
- Use
@mentionsto notify colleagues and bring them into the discussion.
This keeps all feedback and alignment transparent, traceable, and accessible to everyone involved.
Activity Log
The Activity Log provides a clear history of what has happened on each object. It automatically records user actions such as object creation and editing an event.
- Each entry is timestamped and linked to the user who performed the action.
- Activities are grouped by date, with the latest shown first.
- The log is accessible in its own tab within the drawer.
By keeping a complete record of updates and decisions, the activity log ensures accountability and helps teams stay aligned on progress.
