ClickTime 6.7

We are very happy to announce the release of ClickTime version 6.7. The update includes new managerial permissions and advanced list views to manage your employees, clients, jobs, tasks and divisions. The changes are as follows:

  1. Managerial Permissions - You can now grant and remove a manager's ability to view employee, client, job, task, expense and division lists. When a manager doesn't have the ability to view one or more of these lists, the corresponding navigational links will be hidden. In addition to these new options, we've improved how the managerial permissions are organized and displayed when adding and editing people.

  2. List Views – We've significantly enhanced the functionality and customizability of managing lists of people, clients, jobs, tasks and divisions. You can now add and remove columns in each of these list views, including custom fields. Searching a list will search all visible columns. Additionally, columns can be re-ordered and resized to adapt the lists to each person's preference. For example, you can now add to the "people list" a person's designated timesheet approver, employment type and division. Or add a project's estimated hours and location to the job list and then search for all projects being worked on by the New York office.

  3. Updated UI – Along with the new look of our list views, we've started updating the look and feel of other pages under the Company tab. You'll notice the modernized interface when adding and editing people, clients, jobs, tasks and divisions. You can expect to see these changes in other areas of ClickTime over the next few months.

QuickBooks 2011 Compatibility

QuickBooks 2011 We are happy to announce that the ClickTime Web Application and the ClickTime Connector for use with QuickBooks® are compatible with the recently released QuickBooks 2011. The ClickTime Connector for use with QuickBooks, a public beta available to all customers, allows companies to integrate timesheet and expense data seamlessly with QuickBooks Pro, QuickBooks Premier, and QuickBooks Enterprise (2005-2011). The latest version of the Connector now confirms that time tracking is enabled in your QuickBooks file before you can start importing time.

To download and use the latest public beta of the Connector, just sign in and set your accounting application to QuickBooks in your company preferences, and then go to the Integration section under the Company tab.
