We're excited to release a set of improvements focused on time tracking, compliance management, and data visualization! This release brings significant enhancements that will make your daily workflows more efficient and give you better insights into your project operations. 🚀

⏰ Enhanced Job Time Tracking​

New Job Time Tab​

Jobs now include a dedicated Time tab that gives you detailed visibility into time tracking data with flexible viewing options. This powerful new interface lets you analyze time data by user or by day, with pay period filtering to focus on exactly what you need.

The new time tracking interface includes:

  • By User View - See all workers on the job with expandable time details
  • By Day View - View time data organized by date for timeline analysis
  • Pay Period Selection - Filter data to specific pay periods for focused analysis
  • Sortable Data - Workers are sorted alphabetically for easy navigation
  • Expandable Rows - Click to see detailed time breakdown for each user or day

This makes analyzing job-level time data much more intuitive and gives project managers better insight into workforce allocation and project timelines.

📊 Enhanced Data Management​

Pay Quarter Time Card Column​

We've added a new pay quarter column to the time card grid that provides additional context for payroll analysis. This column is hidden by default but can be enabled when you need quarter-based reporting and analysis.

Apprenticeship Wage Progression Grid​

We've introduced a powerful new grid for managing apprenticeship wage schedule progressions, making it much easier to track and analyze apprentice development across your organization.

📧 Smart Compliance Notifications​

Weekly Compliance Check Summaries​

Stay on top of compliance requirements with our new intelligent notification system that sends weekly email summaries of failed compliance checks.

Compliance Check Email

The notification system includes:

  • Priority-Based Grouping - Checks are organized by priority level (Critical, High, Medium, Low)
  • Smart Scheduling - Emails are delivered at 9 AM in your local timezone on weekdays
  • Targeted Notifications - Only users with assigned critical or high-priority failed checks receive emails
  • Clean Interface - Easy-to-scan email format that highlights what needs attention

This ensures important compliance issues don't slip through the cracks and helps teams stay proactive about compliance management.

🎯 Improved User Interface Organization​

Reorganized User Compliance Views​

We've improved the organization of user-related compliance information with better sidebar navigation and clearer section groupings.

Reorganized User Views

Updates include:

  • Sectioned Navigation - Sidebar is now organized into General, Assignments, and Compliance sections
  • Clearer Naming - "Assigned Checks" instead of generic "Checks" for better clarity
  • Improved User Experience - More intuitive navigation between different user management areas
  • Better Visual Hierarchy - Enhanced layout makes it easier to find what you're looking for

These improvements represent our continued commitment to making compliance management and project oversight as efficient as possible. We're excited about the enhanced visibility and control these features provide!

As always, our team is here to help if you have any questions about these new features or need assistance getting started.
