Switching Back to Standard Time
AceProject will switch clocks back to Standard Time on Sunday November 7th, 2010.
Version 2010.10.28 – Actual Date Fields Added to Task Reports
With the addition of the “Actual Start Date” and “Actual End Date” fields in version 4.8, we had to make these fields available in task reports.
From now on, these date fields will be available in the following reports, at both the project and project portfolio levels:
- Task Report by Date: Both fields have been added to the date drop-down filters and show up next to the “Estimated End Date” column in the report.
- Overview Task Report: Both fields show up next to the “Estimated End Date” column in the report.
- Non-Assigned Task Report: Both fields show up next to the “Estimated End Date” column in the report.
Task Reminder vs Actual Dates
When using the task reminder, only the estimated dates are taken into account.
Show/Hide “Follow AceProject” – Why We Did This?
As you probably noticed, we added a set of icons named “Follow AceProject” on the login page lately. These are links to all our social media profiles (Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube) as well as our RSS feed and our blog. Since we provide updates and other valuable information on these sites, we felt it was appropriate to share them with you on both AceProject’s website and login page.
If these icons are annoying for you and your users, it’s possible to hide the “Follow AceProject” section under “Admin -> Account Info -> Branding”.
Version 2010.10.07 – Alternative Email Notifications’ Subject Line
Introducing a more significant subject line in email notifications.
New and Existing Subscribers, Welcome to Version 4.8!
The time has finally come to cut the ribbon! Here it is, version 4.8 is out!
Version 2010.09.27 – Predefined % Done
We are glad to introduce a new field at the project level called “Predefined % Done”. Essentially, this will empower project managers to set a default % Done value to any “In Progress” task status.
Version 2010.09.15 – Show/Hide Columns Updates
Since we added expense tracking to AceProject 4.8, we had to make the new fields available in task lists. From now on, you’ll be able to add the “Estimated Expenses”, “Actual Expenses”, and “My Actual Expenses” fields to the “Show/Hide Columns” option in the “My Tasks”, “Incomplete Tasks” and “Completed Tasks” pages. We also added the “Actual Start Date” and “Actual End Date” fields to the “Show/Hide Columns” option.
Furthermore, we renamed the following fields:
- Estimated ->Estimated Hours
- Actuals ->Actual Hours
- Due-Date ->End Date
- Start Date ->Estimated Start Date
- End Date ->Estimated End Date
Feel free to contact us should you have any inquiries with regards to this update.
We’ve Upgraded 100 Accounts to Version 4.8 today
We are glad to announce that another group of users now benefits of AceProject’s new version today. The migration is running smoothly. We are really proud of this version, which has been several months in the making.
All remaining accounts that are still on version 4.7 will be migrated to version 4.8 in early October 2010.
Here are the release notes for version 4.8 :
Expense Tracking – After years of requests for this, here it is! You can now submit and approve expenses, as well as generate reports. The expense tracking module works as does the time tracking module. Hence, you’ll be up and running with these functionalities in no time. This feature can be disabled at the account level. Hence, if you don’t want to track expenses, the interface will not make any mention of expenses whatsoever.
Weekend Management – We offer more flexibility with regards to how work weeks are managed. You can now indicate whether weekends are working days or not at the task level. Furthermore, if you use task dependencies and […]
