Today we updated the TrackMyPeople system. You'll note this immediately when you log in.
The backend part of the site has been seperated from the public (main) content and is totally secured.
PLEASE NOTE: The URL for the backend has changed as well to https://secure.trackmypeople.com, so you need to update your widget (all OS's), which will connect to the new URL.
The system has been refactored to allow greater flexibilty. This way it is (will be) possible to:
- nest trackers (previously known as projects and companies)
- track time for any tracker, meaning you can also track time for a company
- assign multiple (and soon custom) roles per tracker per user; detailed definition and permission explanation will follow soon
- new (predefined) role types: employee, reporter (soon also freelancer, contracter, client, etc...)
We also migrated all current projects and companies to this new tracker system. The attendance project is no longer shared, but personalised. Each user now has a default tracker, which we guessed during the migration process.
We followed these rules:
- users with a single company (owned or member) have this company as default tracker.
- users with multiple companies now have a new Task named "Attendance"
- users without any companies or projects also have this new task
We migrated all attendance block as well (to match these new trackers). Log in and check the new tracker tree (your organisation structure).
If any of your data has errors, please notify us .
