OpenProject

OpenProject is a project management software at the Projektablage. The service includes common functions such as work packages, visualization of project progress (e.g. in Gantt charts or Kanban boards) or communication between project members.

Notes

  • Special features of OpenProject at the Projektablage

    Because of the integration into the Projektablage, the following notes apply for working with OpenProject:

    • User administration is carried out exclusively via the administration page of the project repository.
    • Projects in OpenProject are set up automatically when the service is activated for a project space at the Projektablage. There is exactly one project in OpenProject per project space at the Projektablage.
    • It is not possible to create sub-projects. If several projects are required in OpenProject, additional project spaces can be set up at the Projektablage instead and OpenProject in these project spaces.
    • The e-mail addresses are used as the names of the project members.
    • The function to make a project public is deactivated.
  • GitLab integration

    OpenProject's GitLab module enables integration with GitLab at the Projektablage. Software development organised in GitLab can thus be incorporated into project management in OpenProject by linking created merge requests to work packages.

    Instructions for setting up the GitLab integration in OpenProject are available on the manufacturer's website.

  • Avatars

    For data protection reasons, the use of personal avatars is currently deactivated. Instead, a generic avatar symbol is used for all project members.
