Notifications 

 

We have all new and fancy notifications! 

 

Technicians need to be alerted when a timesheet is rejected so that the right changes can be done quickly to get their salary.  

User can get now notifications when timesheets are sent for approval and when the status changes to approved or rejected. Notifications can be marked as read, clear and they will even guide you to the timesheet. 

 

Notifications settings in user settings for timesheets (on desktop) are on: 

  • User 1 (with or without manage timesheet permissions) creates timesheet and sends a timesheet for approval to another person with manage permissions. User 1 does NOT receive a notification. 

  • User 2 has manage timesheets permissions and a timesheets is sent to him/her. User 2 receives notification. 

  • User 3 has manage timesheets permissions and a timesheets is NOT sent to him/her (another person). User 3 does NOT receive notification. 

  • User 2 or 3 reject a timesheet. User 2 or 3 do NOT receive a notification. User 1 receives notification. 

  • User 4 is added to a timesheet sent for approval by User 1 and the timesheet is rejected. User 4 does NOT receive a notification. 

 

Notifications settings in user settings for timesheets (on desktop) are off: 

  • No notifications are sent 

 

 

 

 

 

Register time  

 

No overlapping time is registered.  

 

It is crucial to avoid double registered hours for companies not to overpay their employees.  

User can not register time at the same hours on the same day. 

 

 

 

 

Timesheet filter 

 

 

Timesheet filtering has been added.  

 

Users will only see timesheets made by themselves and/or sent to themselves for approval to improve data and approval management.

Activities 

 

Create activity and register time for 7 days past and future from today’s day 

 

Resource managers can now make sure that their technicians will only create activities and register time no longer than 7 days in the past and future from the current date. This minimises human error and improves control over payslips. 

 

 

Personnel 

 

Most recent personnel used in personnel lists 

 

Team leads need to be efficient in the field and not worry about finding the right name to assign to an activity or register time.
