Proceve provides a rich set of Project Configuration capabilities which allow you to define everything from the Industry or Project Category, to the Methodology or Workflow being used and even the Working Days to be assumed when forecasting Timelines.
If you are using Sprints as part of your Project Methodology, then you can configure all of your Sprints or use ones that have already been defined, and assign them to your Project or Program.
Once associated with your Project or Program, they are available to assign Artifacts to.

Proceve was designed with Better Organization of Project Artifacts as a primary Goal.
With that in mind, we allow you to define a lot of organizational items, such as Categories, Groups and more in the Project Configuration and apply them consistently throughout your Project or Program.
This allows you to better identify what needs to get done is specific areas than with existing systems.

At Proceve we have people working in Multiple Countries across many time zones, so keeping track of who is working when can be a challenge.
Proceve allows you to configure everything you need to manage Holidays, Work Day Shedules (9am-5pm, 8am-4pm, etc), Work Weeks (M-F, S-Th, 7 Days a Week, and more) and anything else needed to understand when people are actually working.
Let’s face it, there is no value in planning to have something completed on a Weekend or Holiday if no-one is working then.
All of this can be defined anywhere from Globally down to a specific Office or even an Individual.

We recognize that every Company and Project may have a different way of doing things, so we give you the ability to define as many Workflows as you need for each of the Project types you might undertake.
Define unlimited Workflows in seconds using our easy-to-use Drag and Drop interface.
You may define Workflows, Globally for use across your firm in a consistent manner, or customize them for every project.
Define different Workflows for different types of projects. For example, a Marketing Campaign is not likely to use the same Workflow as a Software Development Project.
Assign the appropriate Workflow to each Project to meet your specific needs.

Like the Workflow your Project Artifacts will likely follow, Projects also go through set of Phases over their lifecycle.
Proceve allows you to define this Project Lifecycle and manage your Project through it.
Do you use Story Point, T-Shirt Sizes, Complexity or Person hours to estimate? No matter how you do it, we have you covered.
Proceve is designed to allow you to define which methodology you wish to use as a default, or you can mix and match as you see fit.
At the end of the day, we realize that regardless of what you use, it always maps back to an expected distribution of Person Hours( E.g. if you ask someone how many Story Points it will take to complete a Task, they always think about how long it will take and then convert in their head the Person Hours they came up with into a Stroy Point Equivalent).
Given this fact, Proceve was designed to allow you to specify the equivalency between a Story Point, T-Shirt or Complexity estimate and a range of Person Hours that the estimate corresponds to.
Proceve is designed to allow these mappings to be defined, Globally, on a Project-by-Project, Team or even individual user level.
