[0034] Node participant, a person handling the node task, but not the person responsible for the node task.

[0035] Task, the smallest execution unit obtained by decomposing a work item or a node.

[0036] Please refer to FIG. 1, which shows one embodiment of the method for creating a new work item according to the present disclosure. The embodiment can be applied to a project management system. As shown in FIG. 1, the method for creating a new work item includes the following steps:

[0037] Step 101, based on a new work item instruction, a first template is obtained.

[0038] Here, the first template includes preset items in the work item and corresponding preset values.

[0039] Here, the first template can be a pre-created template.

[0040] Here, the above-mentioned preset item can be a content item in the work item pre-set in the template.

[0041] Here, the preset value corresponding to the preset item can be a specific value of the preset item.

[0042] Optionally, the template can also be referred to as a resource or a resource template. The resource or the resource template mentioned in the drawings or the description of the present disclosure can be understood as a template.

[0043] In step 102, a first work item is newly created according to the first template.

[0044] Here, the content in the first template can be brought into the first work item to form the content of the first work item.

[0045] Here, the first work item includes preset items in the first template and corresponding preset values.

[0046] It should be noted that the new work item creation method provided in the embodiment can create a first work item according to a template. Thus, a new work item creation method can be provided. Through this new work item creation method, on the one hand, the amount of user operation when creating a new work item can be reduced, so that the operation is fast and the work item can be quickly created. On the other hand, the newly created work item can be specified with preset items and corresponding preset values, so as to ensure the accuracy of the newly created work item. In addition, the data consistency between the work items created by the same template can also be ensured.

[0047] In some embodiments, the preset items of the work item in the first template include one or more of the following but are not limited to: a preset field and a preset role. The preset values corresponding to the preset items in the first template include one or more of the following: a field value corresponding to the preset field, and a role value corresponding to the preset role.

[0048] As an example, the first template can specify a priority field as a preset field, and specify a value corresponding to the priority as the first level. That is, the work item created by using the first template includes the priority field, and the priority is the first level.

[0049] As an example, the first template can specify an auditor role, and specify a value corresponding to the auditor role as Zhang San. That is, the work item created by using the first template includes the auditor role, and the auditor is Zhang San.

[0050] Thus, the preset items include fields, and the corresponding field values can be specified in advance. The amount of operation of determining the fields and the field values by the user can be reduced, and the accuracy of determining the field values can be improved. The preset items include roles, and the participants of the work item can be specified, so as to improve the accuracy of the participants of the work item.

[0051] In some embodiments, the method further includes: in response to a modification operation on the preset value in the first work item, displaying first prompt information, the first prompt information indicating that the modification operation on the preset value obtained according to the first template is not supported.

[0052] In some embodiments, the work item created by the template does not support editing the template field value and the role value. If the field value or the role value is triggered, a prompt message can be displayed: the field value is automatically synchronized from the repository and cannot be modified (as an example, please refer to FIG. 2D).

[0053] In some embodiments, the field value or the role value of the work item can be displayed in multiple scenarios of project management, in which the field value or the role value brought from the field template does not support modification. For example, in a space association scenario, the field synchronization rule does not support selecting the template field on the work item with the template collection enabled; in an automation scenario, the automation-operation-field operation and the automation-operation-personnel assignment path operation do not support selecting the template field and the role on the work item with the template collection enabled; in a member assignment mode scenario, the work item configuration-role management-member assignment mode path operation does not support selecting the template field and the role on the work item with the template collection enabled; in a node responsible person configuration scenario, the node responsible person configuration is linked to a specified role, and the role is a role on the template, so that the modification of the node responsible person fails. In a node arrival and completion event scenario, the work item configuration-process management-node arrival event & node completion event does not support selecting the template field and the role on the work item with the template collection enabled; in a WBS sub-process role personnel synchronization rule scenario, the work item configuration-process management-schedule configuration-sub-process role personnel synchronization rule path operation does not support selecting the template role on the work item with the template collection enabled; in an openAPI scenario, the template field and the role on the work item with the template collection enabled are modified.

[0054] Therefore, it can be ensured that the preset item and the corresponding preset value of the work item created by the template cannot be modified, and the accuracy of data is improved.

[0055] In some embodiments, the method further includes: in response to the instruction for creating a new work item, displaying a candidate template interface, wherein the candidate template interface is used to display candidate template information; and determining the first template from the candidate templates according to a selection operation on the candidate template information.

[0056] In some embodiments, the candidate template interface (as an example, please refer to FIG. 3C) can display a template list in a name order; and supports fuzzy search according to a name field.

[0057] Optionally, the candidate template interface can select at most 50 templates at a time, and after the user checks 50 templates, other templates are not displayed.

[0058] In some embodiments, after a template is selected, a new creation confirmation control is clicked to create a work item instance and bring in the field values and role values on the template into the work item instance detail page.

[0059] In this way, multiple selectable templates can be provided to the user, so that the user can select a suitable template as needed, improving the convenience of the user in creating a work item using a template.

[0060] Optionally, in some interfaces, a new creation control from a template set can be added. Triggering the new creation control from the template set can be understood as issuing a new work item instruction. Triggering the new creation control from the template set can display a candidate template interface.

[0061] Optionally, if the template function is enabled, the new creation control of some interfaces can be replaced with the new creation control from the template set. These interfaces can include one or more of the following but are not limited to: a web work item list page, an instance side interface of a work item view control, an instance side interface of a view control, an instance side interface of a node sub-work item interface, a web workbench, a work item view page, a space configuration page, a space home page, an instant messaging chat window entrance, and a project management tool main interface.

[0062] For example, please refer to FIG. 2A, which shows a control 201 for creating a work item from a resource library in a work item list.

[0063] For example, please refer to FIG. 2B, which shows a new creation from a resource library in a work item new creation page.

[0064] In some embodiments, the operation log records the creation through an XXX template, where XXX is the template name.

[0065] In some embodiments, the backend saves the relationship between the template and the instance created through the template, as well as the scope of the fields and roles.

[0066] In some embodiments, the method further includes updating the preset item and / or preset value in the first work item according to the first template in response to information update in the first template.

[0067] Here, the information update includes preset item update and / or preset value update in the first template.

[0068] That is, in the case where the first work item brings in the field values or role values of the first template, if the field values or role values in the first template are modified, the field values or role values in the first work item are also modified accordingly.

[0069] In this way, the preset value of the first work item can always be consistent with the preset value in the first target, improving the accuracy of the first work item data.

[0070] In some embodiments, the method further includes: in response to a triggering operation on the template set entry control, displaying a template set interface.

[0071] Optionally, the template set can also be referred to as a resource library.

[0072] Here, the template set interface includes template information of one or more templates.

[0073] Optionally, if the work item has opened the template set, the work item list page, a template set management entry is added, and the template set page is entered by clicking.

[0074] In some embodiments, the template set interface can be displayed in a list. The column fields display: the creator, the creation time, the template field, and the role. Filtering, sorting, grouping, and quick filtering are supported. As an example, please refer to FIG. 3A.

[0075] In some embodiments, the method further includes: in response to a selection operation on the template information displayed in the template set interface, displaying a third template editing interface of a third template indicated by the selection operation.

[0076] In some embodiments, triggering the template information in the template list can display a template detail page, which can include: displaying the template field and the role, the creator, and the creation time.

[0077] In some embodiments, when the field value is triggered, it is determined whether the current user has editing permission. If the current user has the permission, the editing state is entered; if the current user does not have the editing permission, the editing is not allowed, and a prompt information is displayed: the current user does not have the editing permission.

[0078] Thus, the detailed information of the template can be displayed, and detailed operations on the template can be implemented.

[0079] In some embodiments, the third template editing interface includes a use creation control; and the method further includes: in response to a triggering of the use creation control, creating a third work item according to the third template.

[0080] Here, triggering the use creation control creates an instance through the template successfully, and a prompt information is displayed: new instance creation is successful, and the instance details are viewed by clicking; if clicked, the instance detail page can be entered.

[0081] As an example, please refer to FIG. 3C, which shows a template detail page (which can also be understood as a target editing page), and the template detail page includes a use creation control.

[0082] Thus, in the template editing interface, the template can be used to quickly create a work item.

[0083] In some embodiments, the template collection interface includes a new template control; and the method further includes: in response to a triggering operation on the new template control, displaying a template creation interface.

[0084] As an example, please refer to the new delivery resource control (i.e. new template control) shown in FIG. 3A.

[0085] As an example, please refer to FIG. 3B, which shows a template creation interface.

[0086] Here, the template collection interface can display a new template control. Triggering the new template control, if the current user has the permission to create and edit templates, the template creation target interface is displayed. The template creation interface can display the fields configured in the template field, and the fields are not required to be filled in; the roles configured in the template field are displayed, and the members can be selected, which are not required to be filled in; and continuous creation is supported.

[0087] Thus, the new template can be quickly created.

[0088] In some embodiments, the template collection interface includes a template import control; and the method further includes: in response to a triggering operation on the template import control, importing a target file to obtain a second template according to an import operation.

[0089] In some embodiments, the template collection page can display an import control. If the current user has the permission to create and edit, the user is supported to import templates.

[0090] In some embodiments, the imported template supports multiple formats. For example, the import file format supports excel. The import template file name can be, for example, work item name_template collection import template_timestamp.xlsx. The first row and column title in the first sheet in the template file displays the template field and the template role.

[0091] Thus, the template can be quickly generated by using the existing file, the speed of generating the template is improved, and the operation amount of generating the template is reduced.

[0092] In some embodiments, a view with a template as the content can be created. After the template collection list is selected, a fixed view can be created. The view mode of the template can support the table mode. The filtering in the view of the template can support the fields, roles configured on the template, and the system fields (creator, creation time) of the template. The view of the template is displayed in the view list, and the template icon is displayed. The view entry can not be displayed on the navigation. The selected x items, sharing, and creating a fixed view can be reserved on the batch operation control after the templates are selected in the view.

[0093] In some embodiments, the work item configuration, if the work item enables the template function, adds a template management view (as shown in FIG. 3A): columns display: creator, creation time, all template fields and roles. Supports filtering; when the data is displayed, a delete button is displayed, and when it is clicked, it is checked: if the template is configured on a sub-work item under a certain process node or a deliverable template, it cannot be deleted, and a prompt can be given that the template has been configured under multiple process templates such as <work item name> work item <process name>, and cannot be deleted; otherwise, a secondary confirmation pop-up is displayed, and after confirmation, the template is deleted.

[0094] In some embodiments, the method further comprises: in the space management interface of the project, displaying a template function enabling control; in response to the template function enabling control being in an open state, displaying a preset item control; in response to a triggering operation on the preset item control, displaying a preset item configuration interface; and in the preset item configuration interface, configuring an item in the space that can be set as a preset item.

[0095] In some embodiments, in the work item configuration, a template function enabling control can be added (for example, as shown in FIG. 4A, an enable repository control; when the enable repository control is checked, the confirmation information shown in FIG. 4B is displayed). Optionally, the template function enabling control can be in a default open state or a closed state. For the template function enabling control, a prompt information can be displayed to inform the user that the user can only create a work item instance from a template set, and when an instance is created through a template, the field and role values on the template will be brought in and cannot be modified on the instance (for example, as shown in FIG. 4B). An explanatory diagram can also be displayed for the template function enabling control.

[0096] In some embodiments, when the template function enabling control is in an open state, it is checked: if the work item is a sub-process in the WBS of another work item, the check fails, and a prompt is displayed: “The work item is a WBS sub-process in <work item name> and X other work items. Please remove it before enabling the template set capability, otherwise it will be successful.

[0097] In some embodiments, a preset item control can be displayed (for example, as shown in FIG. 4C, a repository field and role management control), which is used to prompt field and role management. Clicking the control for prompting field and role management can display a configuration interface.

[0098] In some embodiments, the configuration interface can prompt the following information: when creating a template, the values of the following checked fields (for example, as shown in FIG. 4D) and roles can be specified. The values specified by the user when creating an instance through a template cannot be modified.

[0099] In some embodiments, the configuration interface can display the field names of the work item, excluding some fields that are likely to be different for different work items, such as the following fields: work item name, creation time, update time, whether completed, fields that require formula calculation type.

[0100] In some embodiments, the configuration interface can display all role names of the work item.

[0101] In this way, it can be determined on the space configuration side that the template can contain preset items. The quality of the template is guaranteed.

[0102] In some embodiments, editing operations can be performed on the template. After selecting the preset items and corresponding preset values, the following can be checked when saving: if some fields or roles are deselected in the current operation after the template has been created, a secondary confirmation pop-up is displayed, prompting that the field values on the existing template will be lost, and after saving, the field values and role values on the template will be deleted, and the corresponding field values and role values on the instances created by the template will become editable; if some fields or roles are selected in the current operation after the template has been created, after saving, the field values and role values on the template will be increased, and the corresponding field values and role values on the instances created by the template will remain editable unchanged.

[0103] In some embodiments, if some fields or roles are deselected in the current operation after the template has been created, a secondary confirmation pop-up is displayed, prompting that the field values on the existing template will be lost, and after saving, the field values and role values on the template will be deleted, and the corresponding field values and role values on the instances created by the template will become editable. If some fields or roles are selected in the current operation after the template has been created, after saving, the field values and role values on the template will be increased, and the corresponding field values and role values on the instances created by the template will remain editable unchanged.

[0104] In some embodiments, the editing of the template set field and role record operation log is enabled.

[0105] In some embodiments, after the template set control is enabled, it is not supported to cancel the enablement. Triggering can display the following prompt information: template set is not currently supported to be closed.

[0106] In some embodiments, the operation permission of the template set can be determined according to the following manner. If the user is a space administrator, the user has all data permissions, field permissions, and operation permissions of the template set. If the user is a space member, for a work item that has enabled the template set, the following can be added in the interface of the user: a new template creation and editing control; an optional item of new template creation and editing in the operation rule; the new template creation and editing is in a single selection state, that is, the optional items include: new and editable, not new and editable, and the default value is not new and editable; and a configuration content record operation log of the new template creation and editing is modified. If the user belongs to a custom user group, that is, a custom user with operation permission of the template set, the operation logic of the user can refer to the space member described above.
