We improved performance, fixed lots of bugs and added support for several features including zero-hour time entry, Quick Day and enhanced search capabilities to find the correct client, project and task for your timesheet entries. We want to thank all of our customers who used the beta version during the past several months and provided us with feedback. Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

With the release of ClickTime version 6.91, we made it easier to update your employees' vacation and sick-leave balances and introduced other enhancements as follows:

  1. Update Vacation and Sick Leave Balances - We've made it easier for you to update the vacation and sick leave balances for multiple people simultaneously. A new option to "Update leave type balances" is available in the Advanced area under the Company tab. This makes it easier for companies who need to reset people's leave type balances (vacation, personal time, sick leave, etc.) at the beginning of the year.
  2. Export Lists to Excel – We added the ability to easily export your client, project, task, employee and division lists without needing to run a report.

ClickTime 6.9

With the release of ClickTime version 6.9, we added the ability to use custom fields in your timesheets and introduced other enhancements as follows:

The custom fields can be almost anything you want, including text, numbers, currency, pop-down lists and more.

 

    1. Customizable Data Export and Excel Linking – Custom fields associated with timesheet entries are exportable via the Customizable Data Export report. This custom field data is also directly retrievable within your own custom Excel charts and dashboards (via the Excel Linking feature available to Corporate customers).

 

    1. Report Builder – We’ve improved the Report Builder tool to support custom fields associated with timesheet entries. Now you can also include data from up to 15 different custom fields in each report that you create.

    1. Horizontal Timesheet – We updated the Horizontal Timesheet report to include Timesheet Custom Field information.

 

    1. Week View – You can now resize the column widths on your timesheet via the Options menu. This includes the ability to resize the client, job, task and custom field columns. You can also use custom fields in the Week View time entry screen with all supported browsers.

    1. Extended Session Length – We added longer session length options to all accounts, including Basic & Corporate customers. All customers who were previously set to the maximum length available (4 hours for Basic and 8 hours for Corporate customers) are now automatically set to 12 hours. In your company preferences, you may change this to a duration as long as 24 hours or as short as 30 minutes.

 

    1. Expense Sheets – We refreshed the look-and-feel of the expense tracking interfaces to match the updated aesthetics of the time-tracking portion of the application.

 

    1. Password Strength – We added 18 symbols to the allowed list of characters that can be used in your ClickTime password. Now you can create even stronger passwords than before.

 

    1. Omani Rial – We added the Omani Rial (OMR) as a currency option. You can now enter your expense items in this currency. You may also select the Omani Rial as your company’s primary currency via Company Preferences.

 

    1. Web Browser Compatibility – We continue to support the most current versions of the most popular web browsers. This includes the recently released Chrome 14 and Firefox 7. Check out the ClickTime system requirements for more information about supported browsers.

ClickTime 6.87

With the release of ClickTime version 6.87, we added the ability to duplicate clients and introduced other enhancements as follows:

  1. Duplicate a Client – You can now easily create a new client by duplicating an existing client. When duplicating the client, you will have the option to duplicate the billing rates, custom field values, and jobs associated with the client. When you duplicate the client's jobs, you may also duplicate each job's structure (e.g. phases and sub-phases) and restriction settings.
  2. Desktop Application – We improved tabbing between fields for people who prefer using keyboard-based field-to-field navigation. We also improved reliability under situations when an unreliable internet connection causes the application to flip quickly back-and-forth between an online and offline state. The next time you launch the Desktop Application it will automatically update to the latest version.
  3. ClickTime Connector for use with QuickBooks® – We fixed a couple of issues reported by customers regarding specific QuickBooks settings.
  4. Vertical Timesheet – We updated the Vertical Timesheet report to sort each day's entries by the start and end times as provided (for example, a timesheet entry starting for 10am to 11am appears before one that starts at 2pm and ends at 4pm).
  5. Day View (beta) – We fixed some issues that could cause timesheet entries to get duplicated.
  6. Ukrainian Hryvnia: We added the Ukrainian Hryvnia (UAH) as a currency option. You can now enter your expense items in this currency. You may also select the Ukrainian Hryvnia as your company's primary currency via Company Preferences.

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. If you have already installed a previous beta version, it will automatically update itself the next time you open the Connector.

The 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.
