Shared by Kasia • July 18, 2024

Another type, Numerical, has appeared on the list of Custom Fields selections in the Configuration. The field allows you to enter only a number, the length of which can reach up to 30 digits and six decimal digits. In addition:

  • a dot separates integer and decimal parts
  • the system does not introduce rounding
  • leading zeros in the integer part are automatically shortened (e.g., 00012.5 --> 12.5)
  • back zeros in the decimal part are automatically shortened (e.g., 0.500 --> 0.5)
  • front and back spaces are automatically shortened

The new type is supported in XLSX imports and exports.

Shared by Kasia • June 25, 2024

Taking feedback from customers into account, we have made further improvements to the Timesheet view. Here are the most important changes you should know about:

1. The search engine is available directly above the employee list (previously it was available in the upper right corner under the magnifying glass)

2. You can find the most important presets at the top bar (including Shifts, Balance and Projects)

3. Horizontal scrolling was moved over the timesheet.

4 And more improvements to increase the clarity and readability of the records (font size, getting rid of the number of irregularities from a single cell, adding labels, etc.).
