Group Projects By Clients, Daily Status Report, and Recent Projects
updated on March 1, 2011 by TeamWork Live
It's only been two short weeks since our last announcement and we
already have some exciting new features that we would like to share
with you.
Group Projects By Clients
We have finally finished adding support for grouping projects by
client companies. This has been our most-requested feature so we
are happy to finally make it available to everyone. You can now
create client companies and add client users to those companies by
clicking on the "Clients" link from the "Admin" menu. You can then
associate the client companies with your projects (either when
creating a client company or when creating a project). Doing so
will result in the projects in your project workspaces menu to be
grouped by the client company, making it easier for you to see
which of your projects are for which clients. In addition, when you
add new client users to a client company, the client user will
automatically be given access to all the projects associated with
that client company. The same is also true when you remove a client
user from a client company.
If you only manage internal projects, you can still use the client
grouping features to group related projects. For example, you can
create a sales team as a client company and link all your
sales-related projects to the company. This will result in all your
sales-related projects being grouped together for easier
access.
Daily Status Report
The daily email digest has been improved and is now called the
daily status report. Similar to your dashboard, the daily status
report allows you to see, at a glance, what has recently occurred
in your projects and what you have coming up. The report now
includes all your upcoming, overdue, and high priority milestones,
tasks, and events in addition to the list of recent activities
from all of your projects. The report will make it even easier for
you and your project members to stay on top of your projects.
Recent Projects
If you are managing more than ten projects, the last five projects
that you accessed will now be listed at the top of the project
workspaces menu under the "RECENT PROJECTS" heading. This allows
you to quickly switch between the projects that you are currently
working on without having to search for them in the projects
list.
