PAMMS Enhancements and Optimization: Create an Issue

This training will walk through how to create an Issue for PAMMS Enhancements and Optimization. All of these issues are tracked on PAMMS Epic and will be reviewed and prioritized by the PAMMS Technical Support team.

This epic focuses on several key improvements for the PAMMS platform over the next few months. These enhancements include the transition to Microsoft Word for form document conversion, UI/Design updates, faster build times, source reference optimization for Antora, and integration with Microsoft Teams for GitLab notifications. The goal is to improve the platform’s performance, usability, and integration with other tools, ultimately enhancing the overall user experience. Team members are encouraged to contribute by creating issues for any enhancements or formatting improvements they identify. These issues will be tracked under this epic to ensure alignment across all projects
