Release notes
Current version 1.2.0. Every change to BerryPM, newest first.
- v1.2.0
Scope trade-offs, assumption tracking and clearer work references
Make sprint scope changes deliberate, validate assumptions before they disrupt delivery, and use clear task and ticket references across your team. This release also adds appropriate record-management controls, reference-bearing notifications and updated help.
New
- Scope Trade-off Ledger: Enable scope protection per project to record decisions before adding work or increasing effort in an active sprint. Swap work, accept impact, allocate known capacity or defer the change, with an append-only decision history and CSV export.
- Assumption Validation Radar: Track validation deadlines, owners, evidence and dependent tasks. Overdue assumptions generate risks and block unfinished linked work; verification resolves the generated risk and restores work where no other assumption still blocks it.
Improved
- Task and ticket references: Refer to tasks by project key and number, such as TLP-8, and tickets by their TKT number. References appear across work views, sprint items and details, with copy-ID, copy-link and accessible-record search.
- References in Scope ledger: See task IDs for affected and displaced work in scope decisions and exported records, making trade-offs easier to discuss and trace.
- Clearer task and ticket notifications: New assignment, status and mention event labels include task or ticket references alongside titles. Configured email and Slack alerts preserve those labels, and notification links open the relevant item.
- Purposeful editing and deletion: Correct open assumptions, maintain sprint planning and remove manual risks when permitted. Completed work, scope history, breached or verified assumptions and generated risks retain their safeguards.
- More project planning controls: Maintain phases, workstreams, increments, sprint dependencies, budget entries and resource assignments through permission-checked project controls, while retaining service and audit history.
- Updated Help Center: New guides explain task and ticket IDs and record-management rules. Task and ticket details now link to identifier help; scope, assumption, notification and release guides reflect the latest workflows.
- Public-page search metadata: Public pages use their primary-domain canonical addresses, and pricing offers include additional digital-delivery information for search engines.
Fixed
- Reliable notification visibility: New notifications retain the recipient workspace, and missing workspace labels on existing notifications have been repaired without widening access.
- Published release-note visibility: Published release notes remain readable publicly while drafts stay private. Unexpected loading failures show an error instead of an empty changelog.
- v1.1.0
