Release date US: 2023/01/06

Release date AU/EU: 2023/01/07

Introducing Document View

Jama Connect has added a streamlined authoring and editing experience called Document View. You can write, read, and edit items all in one view — without losing your place in the overall document and context of related content.

Key features of Document View include:

• One view — Read and write content in a simplified format.

• Inline editing — Double-click on an item to open quick edit mode to update a subset of fields in a condensed form. Switch to full edit mode to work with all available fields. 

• Insert items — Add new items exactly where you want without losing your place in the document. 

Document View - Future Enhancements

Document View will continue to evolve in future releases with the addition of new features and capabilities. 

A new slide-out panel will include:

• Comments, allowing users to scroll throughout Document View while viewing related comments.
• More widgets and actions, including related items, connected users, activities, versions, and more. 

Additional features under consideration for the longer-term roadmap:

• New content alert and refresh for collaborating with colleagues on content development.
• Breadcrumb and jump-to navigation to quickly access specific content. 
• Nested tables for components or folders. 
• Advanced field configuration for mixed item types. 
• Extending Document View design and usability to other areas of Jama Connect, including the Reviewing Center.
