Save time and gain full visibility into policy changes with our intuitive policy revision comparison tool, scheduled to be released in EPM Cloud 24.6. Here is a sneak preview:

That is awesome. Does it come with an option to export so you can use the information in a change request for example?

Thanks for the feedback Jens, looking forward to you giving it a try!

 

There will be no export option on the first release, but this is definitely feedback we can take away. Out of interest, what file format(s) would be most useful to export to? 

 

Also, are there any other use cases an export function would help solve?

Well I would consider text, csv and pdf, anything that would make it easy to attach and or copy and paste from A-B.

We cannot use the cloud version, unfortunately. Is there an estimate on when this update will be available for on-premises deployments?

@Gregory I am afraid that we don’t have a planned release for this in any other EPM versions outside of PM Cloud at the moment.

This is awesome!

Have you all considered allowing this feature to exist to compare different policies as well?

Has anyone had chance to get their hands on the feature? 

If so, is there any feedback you would like to share? Are there any improvements you would like to see?
