Beta test of Android time tracking client

Aileen Rasmussen — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 00:00:00 GMT

TimeLog is busy developing the new TimeLog Tracker for Android. In this regard we seek for beta-testers.

TimeLog Tracker for Android will equip Android owners with a beautiful and easy to use time tracking client. The app includes easy task search and offline time tracking capabilities. The app is based on TimeLog Tracker for iPhone, but is re-designed to fit the Android platform. The app is developed in partnership with Greener Pastures, who also provided us with TimeLog Tracker for iPhone

Currently we are looking for beta-testers for TimeLog Tracker for Android, who are willing to track time with the app for a couple of days in the beginning of May and spend time on providing us with usable feedback.

You can have a preliminary look at our design here:

If you’re interested in becoming a beta-tester, please send an email to Christoffer Lanstorp. Please include your name, phone model and current version of your Android operating system.

TimeLog is expanding to Sweden

Sascha Skydsgaard — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 00:00:00 GMT

Increasing demand for TimeLog Project at the Swedish market makes TimeLog opening a new office in Sweden.

We are opening a new office in Stockholm as we wish to be closer to our existing and future customers in Sweden. The Swedish market has great growth potential for TimeLog which our new department will explore further.

The office is opening April 16th 2012 and will temporarily be located in the same office as e-conomic Sweden.

The opening of the new office in Sweden is part of a strategy which within the next three years will strenghten TimeLog’s position in the European elite for web based business solutions even further.

New release: TimeLog Project 5.5

Christoffer Lanstorp — Tue, 13 Mar 2012 00:00:00 GMT

Integration with e-conomic, differentiated VAT rates and improved usability

This release contains several minor improvements as well as a standard integration with the web based financial system e-conomic.

All new features apply to TimeLog Business and Enterprise.

Integration with e-conomic

It is now possible to integrate the online accounting system e-conomic with TimeLog Project.

The following partial integrations are included in TimeLog Project 5.5:

Automatic transfer of clients from TimeLog Project to e-conomic
Automatic transfer of contacts from TimeLog Project to e-conomic
Automatic transfer of employees from TimeLog Project to e-conomic
Automatic client and contact updates in e-conomic
Synchronization of product numbers between TimeLog Project and e-conomic
Automatic transfer of invoices from TimeLog Project to e-conomic
Invoice reconciliation between the two systems

We have produced an in-depth guide on how to set up the integration. The document is based on a number of different scenarios, depending on whether you already have e-conomic or wish to purchase e-conomic to ensure a full integration between TimeLog Project and a Web based financial system.

The integration is activated in the new menu System Administration › Integration and API › Standard integration. Here you will find the setup page for all standard TimeLog integrations.

Managing product numbers

If you are using a financial system other than e-conomic, you may create product numbers manually and then assign these to the various hourly rates created in TimeLog Project. This improves the basis of importing invoices to other financial systems, as the product numbers are included when exporting from TimeLog Project.

The following reports include product numbers when exported:

Project Administration › Invoicing › Search Invoice
Management Reports › Data Extraction › Data Extraction: Invoice Lines

Using product numbers is optional. To activate them, go to System Administration › Finance/Invoicing › Product Numbers.

If the integration with e-conomic is enabled, these product numbers are automatically retrieved from e-conomic.

Differentiated VAT rates for expenses

It is now possible to apply differentiated VAT rates to the expense types in TimeLog Project. This means that when expenses are created in TimeLog Project, you can choose whether to apply a single standard VAT rate or differentiated VAT rates, depending on the expense type.

Unless you select a specific VAT rate for each expense type, the standard VAT rate is applied to all expense types. To change this, go to System Administration › Expenses › Expense Types.

Improved report: Production Reports › Arbeit – Work – Departments

This report, which is part of the TimeLog Departments add-on, has undergone several minor improvements and now provides a much better overview of which departments are using the resources of other departments, as well as which projects one department has carried out for another department.

Improved system management usability

We are continuously working to improve the usability of the system management, which contains all of the TimeLog Project setup options. In this release we have changed several setup interfaces, which now feature an inline edit option. This means that creating and editing is done on the same list; you can filter the lists and select an action for multiple dim
