Displaying Additional Project Information
In your project management, you can use the Business Context Viewer
(BCV) in the side panel, to display additional information on a project and its tasks.
It provides detailed information about the status of a business transaction assigned to a task. You can analyze the information and get more insights into the progress of a project.
In many cases, a task that is assigned to a business transaction has follow-up documents (change documents) that need to be handled, to complete the transaction.
A status overview chart shows all change documents related to the business transaction of Change Request Management assigned to the task. Two types of charts are offered: a pie chart and a column chart.
Prerequisites

), you need a role from the group SAP_BCV_*
