Time Reports – The Issue

Earlier, Time Reports (part of a Reports Plus module) loaded a whole bunch of time records right at the start. This not only took a lot of your time but also made the entire process very slow. The outcome the user often ended up irritated..

Research

So we conducted a small research and found that generally we do not need such vast amount of time records. As a person first of all I would like to glance at the my most recent time records i.e I’m only interested in the time records of the current week, past one week or maximum two. Also I would love to get things loaded faster.

Do you agree? If yes read on….

Keeping the above findings  in mind we decided to work on the initial data that got loaded in  Times Reports

The Improvement

Now, we load only the most recent data and by that I mean just the current weeks time record. However, if you want to see other time records, you can change the filters anytime and load time records according to your requirement. Good enough?

Over to You

So, inspite being a minute enhancement it surely can save you alot of time.

Hope you will find it useful.

This month we thought of introducing a something clients have asked us before – the ability to add more than one subscriber to a support ticket.

Earlier, you could create a new support ticket in Tasks Plus (on behalf of the customer) – but with one email address only. Now, you can separate multiple email addresses (and names) with a comma; and Tasks Plus will subscribe all those people to the newly created support ticket.

Along with this, we also added some fixes.

The first bug we fixed was related to comment status. Consider a task containing Confidential / Private comments. If you merged it with another task, the confidential / private comments became “normal” – hence visible to others.

We’ve fixed this bug. So comments will retain their privacy status in the merged task.

The next fix was regarding ‘Localization of Email Template’. It was noticed that even when a non-English language was selected, email templates were still in English.

We’ve fixed this too – so that email templates are localized.

Hope this addition and fixes help you!

We understand how vital a good communication model is for your teams progress and thus our foremost task since March was to revamp the existing Communication Module.

The dev team worked on various aspects and tested and retested the changes to finally create our Best version till date.

Earlier the user had carry out a two click process to actually communicate with a  fellow member. Our target was to make this way shorter that is one click and you are there.So we built a interface where people could just click to communications and it would open up right in the next panel.So no extra work of going elsewhere.

In this bargain of revamping we ended up removing the “Project Level” communications.Our idea was as all the communication happen on a single page. one can quickly find the project related communications.

Removed Project Level Communications

However the initial beta testers gave us a different feedback. Apparently it was one of the most loved features and so we decided to add the “Project Level Communications” tab back to the Revamped Model.

Added Back Project Level Communications

So, here we are with a single page view to all your communications and also with the most loved Project Level Communication tab right where you like it.

Go check us out…

You can access Project Level Communication as you accessed it before. And the Communications tab is available in Project Section.

Hope you will find the revamped look useful…

Let us know how it helps you to narrow down your search/saves your time…We are eager to get your feedback….!
