BCP updates in the Xanadu release
Beginning with the Xanadu release, the handling of nested related plans has improved. This enhancement helps in managing potential cyclic dependencies by detecting and highlighting any problems that could cause cyclic dependencies during the execution of tasks.
Additionally, the refined recovery timelines enable you to monitor the planned and actual timeframes. A task may be applied to all assets within a plan or to none at all, facilitating an accurate aggregation of recovery timeframes across various levels, including assets, tasks, and plans.
