pryme Time Release Notes

    3.4 (October 2024)

    Application enhancements

    Auto-Assignment of Project Details for Recurring Appointments

    This enhancement improves time tracking for recurring appointments by automatically re-using the project, task, and work type from previous entries. When creating time tracking entries from Outlook, the app now recognizes recurring appointments and pre-fills details based on previous entries in the same series. This saves time and reduces repetitive data entry for users. Learn here.

    Improved Navigation in Mobile Role Center

    The mobile role center now provides easier access to time tracking entries and the calendar. Users can quickly navigate from the role center, enhancing workflow efficiency when managing time and expenses. Learn here.

    Time Entry Pattern in the Role Centers

The chart also includes options to view data for the current and previous periods, as well as different types of periods. Additionally, there is a direct download option to export the data in an Excel file for the selected resource. Learn more.

    Update timesheet with Work Assignments without setting quantity

    It can be very helpful populating the timesheet based on the work assignments from planning, but setting the quantity adds the risk of simply accepting the planned hours as fact.

With advanced features such as enhanced scheduling tools, real-time productivity tracking, and automated time entry suggestions, the report helps in accurate billing and improved efficiency across various employee profiles.

    Updating Create Time Entry indicator in the Calendar on new way

    To reduce confusion and improve clarity, we have updated the appointment label indicators. The new system uses color-coded indicators to reflect the status of time entries: Green 🟒 indicates that a time entry is connected to the time tracking entry and all fields (Date, Project, Task, Work Type, Customer) are matched and updated; Yellow 🟑 indicates that a time entry is connected but there are discrepancies between the fields; and Empty πŸ”˜ indicates that there is no time entry connected to the time tracking entry. This enhancement ensures a more intuitive and precise tracking of time entries.

    Application enhancements

    Time Entries in Time Tracking Calendar

    Managing time tracking gaps can be challenging, especially when uncertainties arise from entries not created through time tracking. Non-time tracking entries are now prominently displayed at the top of the calendar, offering improved visibility and ease of management. Dragging time entries into a timeslot automatically sets the duration based on the entry’s quantity, seamlessly creating connected time tracking entries for enhanced tracking and efficiency.

    Timesheet reminder for managers

    Managers sometimes need to know who in their team has not submitted their timesheets so that they can help to get them submitted. An email with details for those who have not submitted their timesheets on time can help with that. The summary email provides a list of team members under a specific manager who have unsubmitted timesheets by the due date.

    Start/Stop in BC mobile

    Managing time on the move is now simpler with our latest mobile update. Users can start and stop timers directly from their Progressus Role Centers with just a tap. Clear indicators show when timers are active, and users can easily stop multiple timers if needed. This enhancement ensures effortless time tracking wherever you are.

    Time Entry Created Indicators

    Improving visibility of time tracking entries entails introducing indicators at the corners of appointment boxes. A green indicator signifies that a time entry was created from the tracking entry, yellow denotes a new or modified tracking entry requiring a corresponding time entry, and gray indicates a new tracking entry.

    Working hours representation in the calendar

    Improving calendar accuracy involves highlighting working hours based on individual norms, rather than a fixed schedule. Days with exceptions to the norm adjust accordingly: no hours when set to zero, and regular hours otherwise.

    Highlighted running time tracking in the calendar

    When viewing the time tracking calendar, running entries are now clearly distinguished with a red shadow, reducing confusion during manipulation. This visual cue ensures users are aware of active entries and helps prevent accidental adjustments while tracking.

    Open Time Tracking Entries from Time Tracking Calendar

Experience enhanced control and efficiency in your scheduling with this latest update.

The addition of colorful view enhances productivity, making it easy to distinguish between detailed time tracking entries which belong to the different time tracking items, to a more visually appealing and organized workflow.

    Allowed and Default Work Type on Task Templates

    By pre-defining the Default Work Type at the Task Template level, users can now have specific Default Work Types for newly created tasks, distinct from those defined at the project level. When creating tasks from the Task Template, values specified in the Template Lines for each task will take precedence over the Default Work Type defined at the Project or Project Template level.

    Application enhancements

    Create Time Tracking Entries from Outlook calendar appointments

    The feature allows you to convert Outlook calendar appointments into Time Tracking Entries. The function searches for appointments that meet the specified filters on the request page, including current resource and the date filters. Upon running the action again, it will synchronize previously imported appointments that meet the specified filters. The synchronization will update the Date, Start and End Time, while preserving the original description.

    Default Task for Time Entries

    In some lines of business, the majority of time entries are typically associated with a single task per project. By defining this task on the project, the users can skip selecting the task for most time entries, thus saving time. In addition to their general functionality, the new release offers Default Time Entries Task functionality. Once a Default Task is configured for a project, it automatically populates the task field whenever the project is selected in the timesheet or Time Tracking Entries, enhancing efficiency and eliminating the need for manual task selection.

    Default Work Type on Project Card and Project Templates

    When a Default Work Type is needed on tasks, it must be defined on each task. By pre-defining the Default Work Type on project level, the users can skip selecting it on every new task, thus saving time. On defining default work type for the project, the user will be asked to copy the same Default Work Type to all tasks in the project. Also, every newly created task from the project will have the same Deafult Work Type. Projects that are being created from the template, will have Default Work Type copied from the template.

    Multiple selection for Create/ Update Time Entry

    It is possible to include and exclude all lines in the Time Tracking Entries for Create/ Update Time Entries action. Include All and Exclude All will mark or clear out field Create/ Update Entry for all lines in the view from once.

    Resource Analysis

    The Resource Time Analysis, Resource Amount Analysis, Resource Expected Achievement and Resource Agreement Group functionality is moved from the pryme Matters app to the pryme Time app. This does not cause any change to users.

    Fixes and minor adjustments

    • #1191 Weekday is missing for flex when the timesheet is being submitted
    • #1246 Import of work assignments doesn’t work for the last day of the time period

    Time Period Selection and Navigation in the Time Tracking Entries

    Improves navigation and efficiency when working with specific time periods or days. Period Type and Date filter are new options on the Time Tracking Entries page, allowing users to select a specific period for filtering entries. Additionally, new Previous and Next options at the top of the page enable easy navigation between chosen Period Type.

    Manual tracking time (without using Start/Stop button)

    For greater flexibility in recording your time, manual tracking is available now. Allows users to enter Start and End Time directly in the fields, and with that controling starting and stopping time. Users are no longer obligated to rely solely on the start and stop buttons for time tracking. You can initiate time tracking by filling out the Start Time field on the today’s date, which will automatically trigger the tracking process. Similarly, when entering the Ending Time, the Start/Stop button will be automatically set to indicate that tracking has stopped.

    List of errors on running Create/Update Time Entries

    Create/Update Time Tracking functionality enhances error handling and provides users with more transparency. Starting from this release, when running the Create/Update Time Tracking process, any encountered errors will be displayed to the user as a list. This will assist users in quickly identifying and resolving issues related to time tracking entries that can’t be transferred to the timesheet. Correct entries will proceed with the process despite the occurrence of failures for certain entries. The error list will include following details of entries: date, start time, end time and error text.

    Extended description in Time Tracking Entries
