Updated time planning in Worksection 2.0, and how it will simplify your processes

I think it’s impor­tant to share what has changed in Work­sec­tion 2.0 regard­ing time track­ing and how you can use our upgrade in your per­son­al processes.

The func­tions of timer, expense entry, and some reports are still present in the updat­ed ver­sion. But you’re prob­a­bly already aware of this. Now, let’s talk about the new features!

You can view expens­es not only in the task. You may notice a low­er side­bar on your main screen dis­play­ing today’s time in a pur­ple block. If you don’t see it, expand it by click­ing the icon under your avatar in the low­er sidebar.

The pur­ple block opens a new func­tion when clicked — the expens­es pan­el and the dai­ly plan. The expens­es sec­tion is quite straight­for­ward — you see the time record­ed today by the timer or through the expens­es pan­el. The dai­ly plan, how­ev­er, is new, so let me explain it in more detail.

Through the plus icon in the Plan, you can add a task that you need to com­plete today and the time you plan to spend on it. You can also add a task for the next day or any oth­er day. A par­tic­u­lar­ly use­ful fea­ture is the abil­i­ty to add to the dai­ly plan direct­ly from the task itself. This can be done via expens­es and in the prop­er­ties or in the task menu. When you click, a win­dow will appear where you can add the select­ed task to your sched­ule eas­i­ly and quick­ly. Just click on the day, enter the amount of time, and you’re done.

A new report for the dai­ly plan has also appeared, show­ing sched­uled tasks for you and oth­er employees.

Over­all, reports have gained func­tion­al­i­ty and have become more con­ve­nient and visu­al­ly appeal­ing. If you need to resolve finan­cial mat­ters and mon­i­tor bud­gets – the expense report or sum­ma­ry report works well. If there are issues with dai­ly coor­di­na­tion, dis­or­der in tasks, or uneven work­load dis­tri­b­u­tion – new reports for the dai­ly plan and for the team have been cre­at­ed for this purpose.

Addi­tion­al­ly, some report types can be added with a plus icon to any of your projects for quick view­ing. Which ones, are shown in the exam­ple below.

With the new Work­sec­tion, time plan­ning becomes sim­ple and effort­less. Try out the new ver­sion, explore the new fea­tures, and let us know what you use the most in your work. We appre­ci­ate your feedback.
