As 2021 comes to a close …

The TimeSite Pro development team brings 2021 to a close with our final update to thank our customers, partners and supporters for all their help and encouragement during, what has been for all of us, a difficult year. Nevertheless, we feel that we've achieved quite a lot in spite of the many challenges we've all faced. 

• We've implemented Shifts and Rosters to help with your resource planning. 
• Trust Accounting has been extended to include different account types. 
• Billing adjustments have been improved with audit tracking, colour coding of adjusted entries, and aggregating multiple timesheet entries into a single invoice line. 
• Automated subscription billing as user numbers change. 
• Additional billing options for fixed-price projects. 
• Improved the productivity of our approval and authorisation workflows. 
• Multiple improvements to various payroll and accounting integrations including MYOB, Xero, and KeyPay. 
• Upgraded our AWS infrastructure including improved security and monitoring services. 

We'll start laying out our 2022 development themes and plans in the new year. We won't be implementing any major changes to TimeSite Pro over the holiday period. Our support systems — chat, email tickets, and account monitoring — will continue to be available except on public holidays. Our team will take a break from Christmas Eve through to 3 January 2022. 

We wish everyone a happy holiday season and look forward to a wonderful 2022. 

Warm regards, The TimeSite Team
