Batch Operations Message for Child Activities

• When performing batch actions, users will now see an informational message if child activities are not selected due to a collapsed parent. The message appears in the bottom-left corner and disappears when the panel is closed or dismissed.

Export of Planned End Date

• The Planned End Date column is now included in the grid and exported to CSV for both projects and activities, improving reporting consistency.

Invoicing Graduates from Feature Labs

Choosing Activity Type Before Creation

• Now, when adding a new activity, users can select the activity type (Task, Request, or Issue) before creating it–no need to edit it afterward in the task details.
  Why it matters:
  • Saves time by eliminating manual changes
  • Ensures the correct activity type is set from the start
  • Fixes issues with auto-increment custom fields, which previously didn‘t update correctly when changing activity type after creation

Export Invoices to QuickBooks

• With this update, you can now easily export invoices from Birdview to QuickBooks, keeping your financial data in sync. This integration streamlines your billing process and reduces manual data entry. During export, you can:
  • Map payment terms and tax rates
  • Choose an existing QuickBooks client or create a new one
  • Select specific products and services to include in the invoice

Redesigned Custom Forms

• As part of our ongoing effort to modernize the platform, we‘ve redesigned the Custom Forms list to align with other list views across Birdview and improve overall usability.
  The old block-style layout has been replaced with a compact, structured list view that‘s more efficient and space-saving. The new layout includes the following columns: Name; Description; Records (number of submitted entries); Created by / Creation date; Updated by / Update date.
  • 🔍 Search functionality remains available, and users can show or hide columns as needed.
  • 📄 Clicking a row opens the list of submitted records.
  • ⚙️ Quick actions (edit, delete, add records) are now accessible via icons that appear on hover.

New Expense Permissions Released

• We‘ve introduced a new set of permissions for expenses, adding more control over who can view and manage expense entries. This update restricts users from seeing expenses logged by others. Now, instead of three, we have four expense permissions for better flexibility. The change has been rolled out to all customers with migration, ensuring that existing permissions remain unaffected.

New “Workflow” Column Added to Activity Center

• We‘ve introduced a new “Workflow” column in the Activity Center, allowing users to see a project’s workflow directly in the grid without opening the Details page. For now, this column is read-only, providing quick visibility into project workflows for better tracking and organization.

Portfolio Hierarchy in Reports & Exports

• Portfolio hierarchy is now displayed both within reports and in exported reports, improving clarity and organization. This enhancement is now available to all customers. With this change, portfolio hierarchy is now consistently visible across filters, the portfolio list, and reports, making it easier to analyze and navigate structured data.

“Undo” Functionality in Activity Center

• The Undo feature is now live in the Activity Center for all customers! Users can now revert changes using the Back button (arrow) for the following actions: Name changes (projects & activities); Dependency changes (activities); Date adjustments (projects & activities); Duration changes (projects & activities); Status changes, including the “I‘m done” button (projects & activities).

Batch Follow/Unfollow operations in Activity Center

• With this update, users can now Follow and Unfollow multiple activities at once in the Activity Center, making it easier to track important tasks in bulk. Additionally, as the number of batch operations grows, we‘ve introduced horizontal scrolling in the batch operations panel for improved usability and navigation.

Terminology Update: Billed → Invoiced

• With the release of Invoices, we’ve updated terminology across the system for clarity and consistency:
 Billed → Invoiced (applies to projects, activities, time logs, and expenses); Non-billed → Non-invoiced; Billed labor → Invoiced labor; Mark as billed/unbilled → Mark as invoiced/not invoiced
  Note: Billing and Billable fields remain unchanged.

Teams Filter Added to Time Logs History

• We‘ve introduced a Teams filter on the Time Logs History page. This new filter makes it easier to track and analyze time entries by specific teams, improving visibility and reporting for better time management.

$WORKING_DAYS Function in Formula Field

• With this update, the formula field now includes the $WORKING_DAYS function, allowing users to calculate the number of working days between two dates. This calculation follows the same logic as duration. For example, $WORKING_DAYS(January 14, January 13) returns 2 (Monday and Tuesday).
  Tips:
  * The result is positive if the first date is later than the second and negative if reversed.
  * When using the @ symbol after a parenthesis, add a space first to ensure field names appear correctly.

Unnamed Resources Now Available in Workload

• The Workload screen now includes unnamed resources, just like in the Planning screen. Project managers can efficiently plan hours for placeholder users directly within Workload.

Portfolio Hierarchy in Filters

• With this update, portfolios in filters are now displayed with a hierarchical structure, making it easier to navigate and select the right portfolios. This improvement enhances usability and streamlines filtering across the platform.

Improved Portfolio Filters with Hierarchy

• Portfolios are now displayed with a clear hierarchy, making it easier to navigate and select the right portfolios for your needs.

Invoicing in Birdview‘s Feature labs

• Introducing Invoicing, a streamlined way to manage project-based billing directly within Birdview. Invoices are now available for testing in Feature Labs for Birdview PSA Team and Birdview PSA Enterprise plans only. After beta testing, invoicing will be exclusive to Birdview PSA Team and Birdview PSA Enterprise plans. Here’s what you can expect in this first release:
  • Add any extra custom line items.
  • Preview invoices before finalizing.
  • Print or save as a PDF.

Portfolio Statuses Now Visible in Dropdowns

• We‘re excited to share a new enhancement to improve portfolio management! Portfolio statuses are now displayed in all dropdown menus across the platform, providing better context and enabling more efficient portfolio selection and usage.

New API Option for Plain Text Descriptions

• We‘ve introduced a new API read-only option that allows users to retrieve plain text for the description field (instead of HTML). This option is available for both projects and tasks and requires adding a specific parameter to your query. By default, the option is set to false, offering greater flexibility for developers and integrations.

Duplication of Unnamed Resources in Planning

• Users can now streamline their workflows in Planning by quickly duplicating unnamed resources within a project. The new “Copy multiple times” option in the context menu allows users to replicate an unnamed resource up to 20 times with just one click. This enhancement is especially beneficial for large corporations, ensuring faster and more efficient planning for big teams and complex projects.

Improved Search Functionality in Reports

• Searching for fields in Reports is now more intuitive and efficient. Previously, users had to rely on partial terms like “Name” or “ID” to find fields. Now, you can search using full terms like “Project name” or “Project ID,” and the relevant fields will appear instantly.

Redesigned Custom Forms

• With the latest update, the redesigned Custom Forms are officially live for all customers. This release includes:
  • A refreshed design for form questions.
  • New question blocks for greater flexibility.
  • Conditional questions (exclusive to PM and PSA Enterprise plans) for creating dynamic, responsive forms tailored to your needs.

Automatic Dependency Lag Adjustments

• We‘ve introduced a new feature to simplify start date adjustments for activities with dependencies. When a start date is changed, the system will automatically recalculate dependency lags, ensuring accurate scheduling.
  • Administrators can edit start dates of dependent activities with a confirmation prompt.
  • Dependency lags are adjusted automatically, even for reactivated master activities.
  • Tasks with fractional durations retain their start time unless Overtime is enabled.

“Generate Allocations” Button Added to More Groupings in Planning

• We‘ve added the “Generate Allocations” button to two additional groupings in Planning: Group by Resource and Group by Job Role. Previously, this option was not available in these views, providing more flexibility in managing allocations.

Portfolio Page Update: New Grid View with Hierarchy

• We‘ve released an update for the Portfolio page, introducing a new grid layout. The page now displays portfolio hierarchy relationships, similar to the view in the Activity Center, for a clearer and more organized overview.

Enhanced Allocation Options for Single Users and Unnamed Resources

• In line with our recent updates to batch operations in Planning, we‘ve made generating allocations more flexible for individual users or unnamed resources. Previously, clicking to generate allocations would automatically create a set of soft allocations. Now, a new pop-up appears, allowing users to choose between soft, hard, or soft with resource request allocations.

New Message Feature for Approval Requests

• We‘ve introduced a new feature in the message board for approval requests. Now, when a user approves or rejects a request, they can add an optional message, such as a rejection reason or approval note. The message will appear in green for approvals and red for rejections, making decisions easy to identify at a glance.

Expanded Reject Batch Operations in Planning

• We‘ve expanded the Reject batch operation in Planning. Previously limited to users, it now also supports rejecting requests for unnamed resources. Here‘s a summary of available batch operations in Planning:
  Generate allocations: Works for both unnamed resources and users.
  Re-generate allocations: Works for both unnamed resources and users.
  Reject: Works for both unnamed resources and users.
  Approve: Only available for users.

System Lists Redesign: Categories Grid Update

• As part of our platform-wide initiative to redesign lists, we‘ve updated the System Lists, starting with the Categories grid. This update aligns the Categories grid with our consistent design approach across the platform for a more cohesive user experience.

Batch Operation: Generate Allocations in Planning

• We‘ve introduced a new batch operation in Planning: Generate Allocations. Unlike the recently released Re-generate Allocations, this operation does not delete or replace existing allocations. It only generates new allocations when new assignments or scheduled hours are added to users or unnamed resources, ensuring existing data remains intact.

New Batch Operation in Planning

• We‘ve introduced a new batch operation in Planning: Re-generate Allocations.
  When the “Re-generate allocations” is clicked, all allocations (today and future) are re-generated based on the scheduled hours for users or unnamed resources. This batch operation applies to both users and unnamed resources.
  If there are no scheduled hours left (due to deletion), allocations for users/unnamed resources will also be deleted. Re-generate Allocations applies to all types of allocations: soft, soft (waiting for approval), soft (rejected), hard, and hard (approved). Users without the “Manage hard allocations” permission can only re-generate rows with soft allocations.

New Columns in Activity Center

• We‘ve added three new columns to the Activity Center: Flat Fee (in the Budget and Costs section), Billing Type (in the Billable section), and Billed (Yes/No) (in the Billed section). These columns reflect data for both projects and activities. The Flat Fee and Billed columns are editable.

Counters Added to Table Reports

• We‘ve introduced counters for table reports, displaying the number of entities under each specific group. This makes it easier to quickly see totals at a glance for more efficient data analysis.

New Language Added: Dutch

• We‘re excited to announce that Dutch has been introduced as a new language on our platform! Users can now enable it by navigating to My Settings > Advanced Settings.

Project Information Roll-Up to Portfolio Level

• We‘ve introduced a system update that rolls up project information not only at the project level but also at the portfolio level, providing a more comprehensive view. The following columns now roll up into portfolios: Actual hours (time logs), Billable hours, Non-billable hours, Estimated hours, Hours left, and all columns from Budget and Costs, Billable, Billed, and Profit (except Target profit, % and Profit variance, %). This roll-up is global, meaning the portfolio data includes all projects within that portfolio, even if they are spread across multiple spaces. The system sums up data from all projects across all spaces.

“Changed by” Column Added to Rate History List

• We’ve updated the Rate History list in User Settings, adding a new “Changed by” column. This allows users to see who updated the billing and internal hourly rates, along with the date of the changes. This information wasn’t stored in the past, so the “Changed by” data will only be available for changes made from today onward. Historical records won’t display the user who made prior updates.

Emoji Reactions for Messages

• We‘ve introduced emoji reactions in Activity and Project details, letting users express themselves with hundreds of available emojis. Users can add unlimited reactions per message. Note: No in-app or email notifications are triggered by emoji reactions at this time.

Rate Cards List Redesign

• As part of our ongoing list improvement initiative, the Rate Cards list has been updated to match the design of other lists like Job Roles, Users, Customers, and Portfolios. Key enhancements include resizable and movable columns, as well as action items that appear when hovering over a row, offering a more streamlined and user-friendly experience.

Customers List Export to CSV

• Users can now export the Customers list to a .csv file. The export will include all columns visible in the UI, making it easier to manage and share customer data.

Batch Operations for Resource Requests

• We‘ve released the first part of batch operations in Planning, allowing users to approve or reject resource requests in bulk. Batch operations are available in all three groupings: by project, resource, and job role. This feature applies only to users and excludes unnamed resources. Only soft allocations marked as “Waiting for approval” are included. When approving or rejecting, a pop-up allows users to add a message, providing a reason or internal note. This message will be published as a separate entry in the project message board.

Learn more about batch operations for resource requests

Report Generator Update: Activity Hours Display

• Now, for every activity, both individual and aggregated values of estimated hours and hours left are accessible. This allows you to view either the activity’s own hours or the combined total with its children’s hours for more accurate reporting.

API Update: PATCH Method for Projects and Tasks

• The PATCH method for updating projects and tasks is now available for preview in API/v3, allowing for more flexible and efficient updates.

Auto-Assign Enhancement: Multiple Users and Teams

• We’re excited to announce an improvement to the Auto-assign pop-up. You can now select multiple users and even entire teams for automatic assignment to activities, making task management more flexible and efficient.

Message Board Update: Team Mentions

• We’ve introduced a new feature to the message board within project and activity details. Users can now mention entire teams, in addition to individual users, making communication more efficient.

Description Column Added to Activity Center

• Following a request from our client, we‘ve introduced a new Description column for projects and activities in the Activity Center. The column displays descriptions without formatting. This update is now accessible to all clients.

“Spaces” Column Added to Users and Custom Fields

• Today, we‘ve introduced a new “Spaces” column on the Users and Custom fields pages in Company settings. The column displays which spaces users and custom fields are associated with. You can now add users and custom fields to spaces directly from their details without navigating to Space settings.

Group Projects by Custom Fields in Activity Center

• You can now group projects by project custom fields using the existing “Group by” option in the Activity Center. A dropdown menu will appear when you select this option, allowing you to choose from available project custom fields to group projects accordingly.

Adding Users to Spaces Directly from User Details

• The Spaces field has been added to the User Details page. Users can now add members to multiple Spaces directly from the User details page, eliminating the need to navigate to Space settings > Members each time.

New Week Number Display in Gantt Charts

• The Gantt chart in weekly view mode now shows the week number. This addition provides a quick reference point for scheduling and tracking tasks throughout the year. The week number will be displayed only for the current year.

Convert Project to Template

• The option to convert a project to a template is now available directly from the project dropdown menu, making it more accessible and easier to use.

New Ways to Change Activity Type

• We‘ve added three new methods to change the activity type, streamlining your workflow:
  * Click on the thumbnail indicating Request, Issue, or Task
  * Open the activity dropdown
  * Choose the option in the Type column
  Previously, activity type changes could only be made through the activity details sidebar. Note that this update does not apply to milestones and projects.

Export Expenses to CSV Format

• We’ve rolled out an exciting enhancement to our expenses module: the ability to export expenses to CSV format. This feature is now available for both planned and actual expenses, and it operates independently for each of the four tabs within the module. All visible columns, except for the file column, are included in the export.

New Columns to the Archived Projects Grid

• We’ve introduced two new columns to the Archived projects grid: Archived by (this column displays the name or username of the individual who archived the project) and Date of archiving (this column shows the date when the project was archived).

Improved Custom Field Icons and Terminology

• We’ve introduced icons to represent different custom field types, ensuring a more intuitive experience for users. These icons now accompany each custom field type listed in both Company settings and Space settings, offering a clearer visual distinction.
  We’ve revised the names of several custom field types to maintain uniformity across our platform: “List” is now “Dropdown”, “Text area” is now “Paragraph text”, and “Text area (rich formatting)” is now “Paragraph text (rich formatting)”.

New “Show” Option in My Assignments

• Now, users can conveniently filter their assignments to display only those with a paused or started timer. This new feature was specifically developed based on customer feedback, aiming to assist users in easily tracking activities that have been resumed or are yet to be started. It provides added clarity, particularly beneficial for managing numerous assignments effectively.

Introducing Planned End Date Column

• We’re pleased to announce the rollout of the Planned End Date column across all accounts. This new feature functions similarly to the details view: once a task or project is closed, the End Date field displays the Actual Completion Date, while the Planned End Date moves to the new Planned End Date column.

Notification Feature for Task Dependencies

• We have just launched a new notification feature related to task dependencies. Now, when a master task is closed, followers and project members will receive notifications indicating they can commence work on dependent tasks, irrespective of the start date. This feature specifically applies to Finish-to-Start dependencies. Other types of dependencies do not trigger notifications for task initiation. Users have the option to manage these notifications in their personal settings.

Modernizing Reports list interface

• The Reports list were redesigned to align with the modernized interface of other lists. Now, you can also add new columns to the lists: Name, Published, Last run date, Last run by, Creation date, and Created by.

Hyperlink option in Report generator

• Now, all project and activity names in the reports will be hyperlinks. This improvement allows users to access detailed information about tasks and projects directly from the reports.

Thumbnails for Projects and Activities

• We have introduced thumbnails (icons) for projects and activities in several key areas of the platform. These icons are now available in Weekly Timesheets, Board View, Add Activity in My Assignments. This update aims to improve user navigation and visual clarity, making it easier for users to identify and interact with rows associated with projects or activities.

Improved sorting for projects and activities

• Both projects and activities will be sorted alphabetically. The key areas include the “Add time” pop-up in Weekly timesheets, the project field in the “Add activity” pop-up in My assignments, and the “Add to project” feature in Planning when grouping by resource.

Enhanced Planning Functionality

• We’ve bolstered our Planning functionality by introducing a counter for Unnamed resources and Users (when grouped by Project). Formerly exclusive to the “Group by Job role” view, this feature expansion enhances project management clarity. Additionally, project status has been relocated and now appears as a distinct column, further streamlining project tracking and oversight.

Unified time entry pop-ups and pop-overs

• We’ve standardized the time entry pop-ups and pop-overs across various platform locations, including My assignments, Weekly timesheets, and the Add time entry option. Regardless of where you add time, you will encounter a consistent layout complete with all necessary fields.

Expanded timer accessibility

• Now, besides the “My assignments” page, users can activate the timer from activity details, the platform header, and even from a browser tab. This means you can start the timer in one section of Birdview and stop it in another.

Space Archiving and Management

• Users can now seamlessly archive spaces, encompassing all associated projects, custom fields, workflows, and custom forms. Furthermore, Administrators can access a dedicated list of Spaces in Company settings > Spaces, granting them exclusive control to view, archive or unarchive spaces, and edit space settings where permissions allow.

Improved Visibility for Global Custom Fields

• In our latest update, we’ve addressed a common user concern by enhancing the visibility of custom fields. Previously, users struggled to locate custom fields added in Company settings as they weren’t automatically added to spaces. Now, when creating new custom fields at the global level, a warning will alert users that failure to add the field to a space immediately will render it invisible. Moreover, we’ve introduced a multi-select field in the sidebar for creating custom fields, allowing users to specify default spaces for field inclusion, streamlining the process for enhanced usability.

Redesigned Custom Forms

• The first phase of our redesigned custom forms is now live and available for all customers. You can enable the new custom forms with conditional questions in Feature Labs.

Batch operations for Weekly timesheets

• Users can now employ batch operations within the “Add time” pop-up, enabling them to seamlessly add multiple assigned activities to their weekly timesheets.

Copy Logged Time in Weekly Timesheets

• Now, when copying activities from the previous week, users have the option to include not only the activities but also the logged time. On a new week, select the option to copy logged time along with activities when copying from the previous week. As a result, the same activities with the same logged time will appear on your current week‘s timesheet. This means that if your time logs tend to look similar week after week, this update will save you time and effort.

Changed Workload Color in Group by Job Role

• We’ve implemented a color update for Unnamed resources workload in the Job roles grouping in Planning. Previously, if unnamed resources were potentially overloaded, their workload displayed in gray color, even when it exceeded the threshold. To enhance visibility and alert resource managers, we’ve changed the color from gray to red. This change will make it more obvious when unnamed resources are facing workload challenges.

AI Assistant Removed from Feature Labs

• We’ve removed the AI assistant feature from Feature labs. Moving forward, it will only be available for users on the Birdview Team and Enterprise plans.

Renamed Export in BI Dashboards

• We’ve made a small but important update to our BI dashboards. Previously, the button labeled “Export to PDF” was a bit misleading, as it only captured the visible part of the screen. To provide clarity and avoid confusion, we’ve renamed this button to “Export snapshot to PDF”.

Timer Functionality Expanded

• Our timer functionality has been extended beyond the My assignments page. Now, users can conveniently enable a timer directly within the details of each activity. This enhancement is aimed at making time tracking even more accessible and user-friendly.

Indicator for Required Custom Fields in Time Entries

• Previously, we used a red dot to signify the presence of required custom fields. However, we’ve now replaced this with a red counter, displaying the exact quantity of required custom fields. This update is designed to enhance clarity and make it easier for users to identify the required custom fields at a glance.

New Allocation Type Filter in Planning

• We’ve introduced a new filter called “Allocation Type,” which empowers users to filter between soft and hard allocations directly on the Gantt chart.

Resource Requests for Unnamed Resources

• This update comes in response to valuable feedback from our customers, and we’re thrilled to provide this enhancement to improve your experience. When creating an allocation for an unnamed resource, it is generated as a soft allocation with a “Waiting for approval” status indicated by a large yellow circle. If the allocation for an unnamed resource is rejected, its status changes to “Rejected” with a red circle, while remaining as a soft allocation. Upon approval of the allocation for an unnamed resource, an approver must select a real user to replace the unnamed resource. The allocation is then transferred to the real user with an “Approved” status, represented by a large green circle, transitioning into a hard allocation. We believe this feature will streamline your resource management process and provide greater flexibility in resource allocation.

Resource Planning transition to Birdview Enterprise

• Access to the Resource Planning Center will be reserved for users with the Birdview Project Management Enterprise and Birdview Professional Services Enterprise licenses, ensuring a tailored experience that supports the breadth and depth of large-scale project management needs. This feature will also be retired from Feature Labs, marking its evolution from a beta offering to a fully integrated Enterprise solution.

Time Logs Locking Feature

• Our new time logs locking feature for Company settings allows users to restrict time entry edits and additions within set time frames. This functionality offers customization options, including preventing or permitting changes to past and approved entries. Please note that administrators will always bypass time locking. To enable this feature, users can navigate to Advanced settings and configure it according to their preferences and company policy.

Guest User Visibility for Custom Forms Update

• From now on, guest users will only have access to custom forms from spaces where they are added as members. Please be aware that this change is also reflected in the permissions checkbox.

ServiceNow integration

• With this integration, you can effortlessly transform your Birdview projects and activities into ServiceNow change requests and tasks. ServiceNow integration will help you streamline your workflows and reduce manual work by automating the project and task creation process.

Learn more about ServiceNow integration

Timer Functionality Enhancements

• We’ve addressed several inconsistencies related to the timer functionality. Here are the fixes implemented:
  Before: The timer continued running if an assignee was removed.
  Now: The timer stops if an assignee is removed, and the time is saved.
  Before: Clicking the “I am done” button did not affect the timer.
  Now: The timer stops when the “I am done” button is clicked, and time is saved. Resuming work pauses the timer.
  Before: The timer did not stop when already stopped in one tab.
  Now: The timer stops correctly even when previously stopped in one tab.

Enhanced Invite User Dialog

• In response to recent feedback, we’ve enhanced the Invite User dialog to improve clarity around the ‘Spaces’ field. Users found it unclear, so we’ve added an informative tooltip with a help link for further clarification.

Improved Time Formatting in Reports

• Now, instead of displaying time as 4:50 or 4.50, it will appear as 4h 50m, showcasing time in hours and minutes. Please note that these changes only affect the display of time in the UI, and there are no alterations to CSV exports.

Add Time Entries from Kanban Board

• We’re excited to introduce a new feature: the ability to add time entries directly from the Kanban board. With this enhancement, users can now streamline the time tracking process by adding time entries without having to navigate to My Assignments or Activity Details.

Enhanced Users Export Feature

• With this latest update, exporting a CSV file now provides more comprehensive information, including:
  • All enabled columns and user custom fields
  • Additional details, such as ‘Can login status’, ‘Last visit date’, ‘Enabled status’ (indicating whether the user is active or not).
    This enhancement ensures that users have access to a broader range of user-related data, facilitating better management and analysis.

“Assign to Me” Option

• Say goodbye to scrolling through long assignees dropdowns! We’re excited to introduce the new “Assign to me” option, now conveniently available in all assignees dropdowns. With just a click, users can assign themselves to projects and activities, saving valuable time. Once a user assigns themselves, the option dynamically changes to “Unassign from me,” enabling users to effortlessly unassign themselves with a single click as well.

Birdview Automation

• Birdview Automation allows for seamless integration with a wide array of essential applications, facilitating the automation of diverse business operations. It offers the flexibility to manually set up and manage multiple automations, significantly enhancing efficiency by reducing manual tasks and streamlining workflows across the business ecosystem.

Learn more about Birdview Automation

Mandatory Spaces Field for New Users

• In today’s minor release update, we’re making a small but significant change. Now, when inviting a new user to the account, the “Spaces” field is required. While users can still be removed from all spaces later on, requiring this step during user creation will save valuable time for administrators, eliminating the need to circle back for space invites later.

Improved Space Creation Process

• In response to valuable feedback from our customers, we’ve enhanced the space creation process. Previously, all users had the ability to create new spaces upon release. However, we’ve now introduced a global permission called “Add spaces” within the Access level settings. This global permission is enabled by default, but users now have the flexibility to manage who has the right to create a space and who does not.

Resource requests in Birdview Planning

• “Resource requests” in Birdview Planning is a powerful functionality designed to streamline and enhance the resource management process for project teams. This feature simplifies the process of requesting and allocating project resources, enabling efficient collaboration between project managers and resource managers to ensure optimal project staffing.

Learn more about ‘Resource requests

Updated Time Formatting

• Instead of the previous formats like 4:50 or 4.50, time will now be presented as 4h 50m, showing hours and minutes. With today’s update, you’ll observe this new formatting in the following sections: Time logs history, Workload, Simulation. This change aims to improve readability and ensure consistency throughout our platform.

Enhanced Weekly Timesheet Pop-over

• Say goodbye to the outdated pop-over in Weekly timesheets, as we’ve replaced it with a sleek, brand-new version. This updated pop-over now includes not only the description and time entry custom fields but also two additional input fields: “Progress, %” and “Personal hours left.” This improvement aims to provide users with a more comprehensive and efficient time entry experience.

Handling of Historical Time Entries

• Going forward, historical time entries that have been approved will not be recalculated based on updated activity hourly rates. Previously, this logic was only applicable to time entries marked as billed. This change ensures greater consistency and accuracy in our time tracking system.

Team ‘Spaces‘ for all users

• Spaces are designed to provide an unlimited number of isolated work environments within the Birdview platform, catering to different teams or project needs. Spaces offer a unique solution for teams and individuals to define and manage their projects, tasks, and activities at scale.

Learn more about Spaces

Streamlined User Export in CSV Format

• We’ve made exporting user data even easier. Now, from Company settings, you can export user information in CSV format. The exported CSV file will include columns for essential user details such as Name, Job Role, Customer, Access Level, Email, Teams, Skills, and User Custom Fields.

“Add Time Entry” Pop-Up Now in More Locations

• We’re taking another step towards consistency by introducing the new and improved “Add time entry” pop-up in three more locations. Say goodbye to the old dialogues in these areas:
  – My Assignments: Access it via the “Add time entry” icon.
  – Activity Details: Look for the “Add time entry” button.
  – Activity Context Menu: Find it under the “Add time entry” option.
  This change ensures a unified and enhanced experience across the platform.

Enhanced “Add Time Entry” Pop-Up in My Assignments

• We’ve completely revamped the “Add time entry” pop-up in My Assignments to provide you with a more user-friendly experience. Here’s what’s new:
  – A calendar for date selection.
  – Time entry formatting in hours and minutes for clarity.
  – A description field for additional context.
  – A progress field for tracking your work.
  – Personal hours left input field with improved formatting.
  – A “Add entry as billable” checkbox.
  – Time entry custom fields, both required and optional.
  This update is just the beginning, as we plan to implement this design across the entire platform, ensuring a consistent and improved experience.

A Warning Pop-up for Project Expenses and Payments Deletion

• Listening to our customers, we’ve implemented a small but important enhancement. Now, when you attempt to delete project expenses or payments, you’ll encounter a warning pop-up. This simple addition, requested by our users, helps prevent accidental deletions and enhances the overall user experience.

Time Logs History with Customer Filters

• We’re excited to introduce a valuable enhancement to the Time Logs history feature based on client feedback. Now, you can filter your time logs by customers, similar to the functionality in the Activity Center. This addition streamlines your time tracking experience. Plus, you can conveniently export this data to CSV for further use.

Consistent Time Formatting Update

• We’re continuing our platform-wide time formatting update. Now, several fields will display time in hours and minutes, enhancing consistency and clarity. This includes Allocation hours, Estimated hours, Actual hours, Billable hours, Non-billable hours, Hours left, Scheduled hours, and Time spent.

Updated Icon for Settings

• Based on user feedback, we’ve replaced the previous slider icon in project settings and portfolio member settings with a more intuitive gear icon. This change aims to improve clarity and make navigation more logical for our users.

OneDrive Integration for Birdview

• We are happy to introduce the OneDrive Integration for Birdview, tailored to improve document management and elevate team collaboration. Effortlessly share files across projects and activities, while consolidating all vital information into one convenient space for easier access and coordination.

Improved Time Formatting Input

• Now, users can input time seamlessly using ‘h’ and ‘m’ labels, ensuring clarity and consistency. This update also includes rounding for cleaner entries, with values like 1 being converted to 1h and 1.5 to 1h 30m. The minimum input is 1m, and the maximum is 99h 59m.

Attachments malware scan

• With this functionality, all new attachments are automatically scanned for viruses and malware. If a threat is identified, the file will be NOT saved in the storage and the user will be notified.
