busybusy Product Update: Enhancing Control and Communication with 2023.4 Features

As we progress through 2023, busybusy is excited to unveil a suite of features in our latest release designed to give you more control over your time tracking and enhance communication within your team. The 2023.4 update introduces the ability to Disable Self Time Tracking, advanced management of Time Off Permissions, and Performance Scores for budgets, time entries, and progress tracking.

Disable Self Time Tracking

In response to user requests, busybusy now offers the option to Disable Self Time Tracking. Selected employees are restricted from clocking themselves in or out, but they’ll still have access to everything else- schedules, reports, and team messages. You can easily disable time tracking permission for different employees, allowing higher positions to enter in their time.

  • Enhanced Accuracy: Prevent unintentional or unauthorized time entries by disabling self-tracking, giving administrators more control over the time tracking process.
  • Administrative Oversight: Admins can now validate and manage time entries more efficiently, minimizing errors and ensuring compliance.

Manage Time Off Permissions

Efficiently manage your team’s time off with enhanced Time Off Permissions. This feature provides the flexibility to delegate responsibilities while maintaining control over your project timelines. Employees can now request time off from the web, in addition to their phones.

  • Delegate Responsibility: Empower team leads or project managers with the ability to approve or deny time-off requests, distributing the workload efficiently.
  • Streamlined Approval Process: Speed up the time-off approval process, ensuring that projects stay on track without compromising on team members’ well-deserved breaks.

Performance Scores (Budgets, Time Entries, Progress Tracking)

Evaluate project performance comprehensively with Performance Scores. This feature provides a holistic view of budgets, time entries, and progress tracking, empowering you to make data-driven decisions.

  • Data-Driven Insights: Access detailed performance scores for budgets, time entries, and progress tracking to identify areas of improvement and success.
  • Strategic Decision-Making: Make informed decisions by leveraging comprehensive data on project performance, ensuring that your projects stay on time and within budget.
