What's new in v1.19.8
Enhanced Task Valuation
The update introduces the possibility of more elastic management of task valuation, in terms of absolute value, hourly rate management, planning, and deadlines.
Tasks inherit these fundamental parameters from the work unit they belong to. From now on, you can manage these characteristics uniquely for each individual task.
You can now directly manage the planning date, deadline, hourly rate, and the method of calculating the task's value directly in the task detail view.
The calculation of the task value can be set by referencing estimated time, worked time, or by entering a custom value.
Default Task Valuation Mode
The default calculation mode of a task depends on the type of work unit it belongs to.
By default, work units categorized as "time cap" and "hourly rate" value tasks based on worked time, while "budget" type work units value tasks based on estimated time.
This default behavior can be modified in the work unit details at the top of the "Task Management" panel.
Changing the task valuation mode of a work unit updates all uncompleted tasks within the work unit to inherit the valuation mode from the work unit, except for those tasks where the valuation had been previously changed on an individual task basis.
New Performance System
The performance metrics that link budget and time provide more detailed information. They show estimated values, delivered values, and the balance or gap from goals for each fundamental value necessary for achieving objectives and for the profitability of the work.
Planner KPI
The new KPI system of the planner, featuring a collapsible side panel, displays how planning and actual work affect the fundamental values of your business.
You now have all the necessary data to predict how your planning affects the estimated budget day by day, to manage the progress of your workdays and how they impact the current week and month, and, importantly, to conduct detailed retrospective analyses compared to previous periods directly on the planner.
Estimated Budget
In the budget charts, you can now at a glance see the estimated budget based on task planning and how it may differ from the budget delivered through work.
