Sometimes I forget to turn off time tracking on 1 or more items and then start tracking time on a new item. Things can also happen with members of my team. But we can only do one thing at a time.
I do realize that there are examples, in theory, where someone might be doing two related things at the same time and might therefore want to track time for 2 items at the same time.
That said, please at least provide an alert letting the user know, that there is a related item where they are currently tracking time and would they like to stop tracking time on the other item before tracking time on the new item?
I agree with above.
At teamwork.com they solve it by having a little indicator on the bottom of the screen that shows the current time tracking. The widget stays where ever you navigate in the app.
Once you start a new time tracking the previous pauses.
The recent tracked tasks stay in the widget wich makes it easy to switch between the recent task.
Often you switch between the same task during one day so i think something like this could be pretty handyâŠ
UI and UX of teamwork.com is horrible (I try to switch our company to Monday) but this little feature is great!
Absolutely! I recently added a new feature request for what Sven suggested.
It also happens to me very often that I forget stopping a task, switch to another one and press âworking on itâ.
+1 for this request. Stopping the current tracking should be automatic when switching to another task and starting a timer. Having multiple timer running is the open door to messy time reporting and angry clients when someone forgot to close one or multiple timer after leaving work?.
Me too on this request
Any progress in this request?
Iâve tried some automation like âstart tracking and move to a RunningNow boardâ on status change. It gives a visibility (there shouldnât be 2 tasks in this kanban board or group). But I have no idea on how to move the task back to the correct board/group on pause.
If we canât automatically pause all other tasks on starting a new tracking weâd at least see all task tracked at this moment in s special widget (top of the screenâŠ)
