ClickTime 6.5

We are happy to announce the release of ClickTime version 6.5. The update includes a new Timesheet View, improved timesheet approval workflow and much more.  The changes are as follows:

  1. Timesheet View – We rebuilt the Timesheet View with a brand new look and implemented some great
    new methods for reviewing your timesheet. The new view gives you the option to summarize your timesheet by clients, jobs, phases, sub-phases or tasks across each
    timesheet.

  2. Timesheet Approval Workflow Improvements – We've streamlined common processes for managers and administrators. The improvements are especially helpful when you need to edit someone else's timesheet that was previously submitted for approval or was already approved.

  3. ClickTime Connector for use with QuickBooks® – This is now a public beta available to all customers. Just sign in and set your accounting application to QuickBooks in your company preferences, and then go to the Download tab to get the Connector. We've disabled the old "QuickBooks Reimbursable Expense Export (beta)" report. The new ClickTime Connector is a big improvement over the old IIF export formats. We encourage all QuickBooks users to try the new ClickTime Connector and let us know if you have any issues or enhancement requests.

  4. Updated Reports – We improved the appearance of several reports in the My Reports section under the Personal tab.

  5. Apple iOS 4 Support – We officially support Apple's newest iPhone and the iOS 4 update. You can use our Mobile Edition as well as the main web application with your iOS-based mobile devices.

  6. Mongolian Tugrik – We added the Mongolian Tugrik (MNT) as a currency option. You can now enter your expense items in this currency. You may also select the Tugrik as your company's primary currency via Company Preferences.

  7. Documentation – We updated the online and PDF
    documentation to reflect the most recent updates. Administrators may
    download the user manuals (PDF) from the Quick View page after
    signing in. The online help is available by clicking the "help" links
    that appear in the upper and lower right-corners of every page after
    signing in to ClickTime.

    new ClickTime Desktop Application is now available.
    If you have the previous beta version installed, you should be prompted to update to the new version upon opening it.

  2. ClickTime Connector for use with QuickBooks® – We renamed the "QuickBooks Connector" and fixed issues reported by beta testers. If you have a previous beta version installed, please uninstall it before
    downloading the new version. In the future you won't need to do this.

  3. Day View Beta – We've made the new version of our Day View beta available to more customers. An option to "Try New Day View" will appear on the original Day View if your company has access to the new beta.

  4. Browser Compatibility – We now officially support Firefox 3.6 and Chrome 4. We also no longer support some old versions of these browsers (Firefox 3.0 and Chrome 3). Review the ClickTime system requirements for more information on browser and operating system compatibility.

We released ClickTime version 6.34 yesterday. The update includes
enhancements to the Desktop App beta and other various improvements. The
changes are as follows:

  1. Desktop Application Beta – The latest beta release of our
    new ClickTime Desktop Application is now available. This version includes an automatic update feature and various stopwatch improvements. If you have a previous beta version installed please uninstall it before downloading the new version (in the future you won't need to do this).

ClickTime 6.32

We released ClickTime version 6.32 today. The update includes various session performance improvements and an initial beta release of our new Desktop App. The changes are as follows:

  1. Increased Session Length – We doubled the maximum session length to 8 hours. Session length is the amount of idle time between your last interaction with ClickTime and when you need to re-authenticate. A session length of 8 hours should allow a person to sign in once in the morning, start entering time, and not have to re-authenticate for an entire work day. The new option is in the Security Settings section of your Company Preferences. Customers on our Corporate plan have a maximum session length of 8 hours, and people on the Basic plan get their maximum length doubled to 4 hours. Customers who were previously set to the maximum session length will automatically get their setting updated to the new maximum value.

  2. Session Handling Improvements – We improved how your session is handled on the new Week View and Day View time entry interfaces, as well as the Job Estimation grid. Previously, you may have been told that your session had ended and need to sign-in again more frequently than expected. We've made sure that with every data request your web browser makes to our server, no matter how small, that we update your session appropriately so you don't need to re-authenticate as frequently.

  3. Desktop Application Beta – The initial beta release of our new ClickTime Desktop Application is now available. The new version includes extensive new features, a cleaner user interface, and tighter Web Timesheet integration.

  4. Updated Mobile Sign-in – The sign-in page for mobile devices (iPhone, Nexus One, BlackBerry, Palm Pre, iPod touch, etc.) has been updated to improve the interface for all modern smartphones and other devices. We look forward to using it on an iPad in the near future, too.

  5. Web Services – We would like to remind anyone still using web services version 2.1 to upgrade to the new version. We previously extended the availability of version 2.1 for a couple of months, but it will no longer be available after February 16, 2010.
