ClickTime 5.6

We have another update for you quickly on the heels of our last update. This release includes compatibility improvements with the ClickTime Mobile Edition, a new version of web services and updates to the new Week View (beta) time entry interface.

• ClickTime Mobile Edition - We've made several enhancements to the timesheet and expense functionality in the Mobile Edition. The changes should significantly improve usability for BlackBerry, Palm and Windows Mobile users. We also added a nice icon for iPhone users when adding ClickTime to your home screen.
• New Week View (beta) - We updated the new Week View (beta) edition to allow you to easily switch between using type-ahead or the standard "pop-down" selectors when specifying the project and task you are working on. The type-ahead option is very useful when you have long project or tasks lists.
• Web Services 2.1 - We have a new version of web services with an updated and enhanced API. Contact support for documentation on what's new. If you're currently using an old version of web services we encourage you to migrate to the new version as soon as possible. The old version will only be accessible for a couple more months.

For more details about the changes in version 5.6, see our release notes.

ClickTime 5.5

We are happy to have released version 5.5 of ClickTime last week. The new version includes some great new features. These are the highlights:

1. QuickBooks Connector - The ClickTime QuickBooks Connector helps you integrate timesheet and expense data seamlessly with QuickBooks. The integration tool communicates directly with QuickBooks, making it more efficient than traditional IIF export/import methods.
2. Excel Linking - This allows you to download ClickTime data directly into your own Excel spreadsheets without logging into the ClickTime web application. You can create your own custom reports in Excel (pivot tables, charts, etc.) and then dynamically update the information from ClickTime with a click of your mouse.
3. OpenID - We now provide support for login using OpenID. See our previous blog post for more info.
4. Week View (beta) - We added auto-saving and many other improvements to the Week View (beta) time-entry interface.
5. Reporting Improvements - A bunch of reports got updated with new columns, filters and output options.
6. Safari 3.1 Compatibility - We now officially support version 3.1 of the Safari web browser for Mac OS X, Windows XP and Windows Vista.
