Visualizer Overview

What is the Visualizer?

The OnePlan Visualizer is a feature that allows users to see all their projects and tasks in a single, easy-to-understand visual format. You can customize the view based on what you need, and it helps you manage everything more effectively. It's like an interactive map for all your work and projects.

To use the Visualizer, your OnePlan administrator must first set it up. See Set Up Visualizer for instructions.

Example Use Case

For example, during the planning phase of a project, the OnePlan Visualizer can help the project manager and project team clearly view and understand cross-project interdependencies, helping foresee potential bottlenecks. This information can be used to effectively manage timelines, allocate resources, and adjust workloads, leading to improved efficiency and successful project completion. This is particularly useful in complex projects where multiple teams or departments are involved.

Access the Visualizer

Note

The Visualizer module is added to individual plan types and process flow steps within the plan details form. You must be in the correct plan type and process flow step to access the Visualizer module. Consult your OnePlan administrator for a list of plan types and process steps where the Visualizer module is available in your OnePlan environment.

  1. Go to the desired plan. Be sure that the plan is in a process flow step where the Visualizer module is available.

  2. Go to Reports > Visualizer. The Visualizer module will open.

Get Around the Visualizer

The dots represent plans. You can select how the dots are colored based certain plan data such as # of Backlog Tasks, % Done, and more. This makes it easy to see if plans are getting off track, or may cause issues for its associated plans.

The lines represent the relationships between the plans.
