Start Direct Chat About Element

Using the context menu of elements, you can use the Start Chat command to immediately contact the creator of the element via chat or video conference. For reviews and requirements, the command has been extended so that chats and video conferences can also be held with assigned employees and groups.

Creating Chats for Project Elements

In diagrams, in the Explorer, or in queries, you can create a chat directly via the context menu of an element using the Create Chat command. A dialog opens that already lists the creator or the assigned employees.

Using the Plus button, you can assign additional users and start a video conference directly. The chat is given the name of the element and is added to the Messenger.

Note
The person who creates the chat and the creator of the element are automatically assigned to the chat. If the person who creates the chat is also the creator of the element, they are only displayed in the dialog once the dialog is saved.
Create a chat with the creator

By default, the chat is given the name of the element, which can be overwritten. Additional users can be assigned using the Plus button. A video conference can also be started directly from the dialog by clicking Video conference.

Note
The chat is also created if you start the video conference via the dialog and click Cancel in the subsequent dialog.

Creating Chats for Requirements and Reviews

For requirements, and reviews, you can use the Start Chat with User command in addition to Start Chat with Creator if employees or project groups have already been assigned.
