If Long Events Display in Time View is set to All-day area then in time view mode events longer than All-Day Event Hours are displayed in the all-day section.

“No event” message

Tip

Starting app version 6.0.x, a new setting “No event“ message was added. The settings allows to manage the message display regarding an event disappearance, after the event was either created or edited.

For instance, in your calendar, you have a worklog source configured to display the worklogs that belong to user Barbara. You, then, created a worklog event for user John. Since user John is not added to the worklog source configuration, you’ll see a relevant message regarding the absence of the event on a calendar.

Work report for paused timer

Tip

Starting the app version 6.0.4 (cloud) / 6.1 (server), a new user setting Work report for paused timer has been introduced to facilitate effortless work reporting.

Image Added

If the setting is enabled, the Log Work dialog will be shown when a new timer is started while there was an active timer still going on. If disabled, when a new timer is started while there was an active timer, the earlier timer will be paused, and user will not be prompted to report work based on it.

For instance, QA engineer Barbara had a timer set for the issue SSPC-22.

Then, Barbara was asked by her team lead to start working on another task. Once Barbara clicked Start timer for a new issue, the Log Work dialog is shown to her, along with the message, as she is prompted to report her work based on a timer that was started earlier.
