New released features!

Recently, we've released some awesome new features and improvements! 
Read here about them and find out how they can help you!

Duplicate deliverables

It's now possible to duplicate deliverables within a project:

This option comes in handy if you have retainer projects that you bill every month; the deliverables are the same, only the delivery date is different. To learn more, see here.

Invoicing method Subscriptions

We have introduced a new invoicing method called subscriptions that allows you to automatically invoice your customers at a pre-defined frequency (per month, per quarter, per half-year, or per year). To learn more, see here.

Make approving time optional

You can now configure a project to make approval of time recorded against it optional. For more information, see the release notes.

Timesheets: Improved submitting options

We changed the options for submitting timesheets. For more information, see the release notes.

Improvements Gmail addon

You can now search for and choose the entity to which you want to log the email. This might be handy when VOGSY can’t find a match. For more information, see here. 

Improved timesheets based on your feedback

Based on your feedback, we have made VOGSY's timesheets even more efficient and useful!

Submit options

The Submit button is now more clear and straightforward: Tap it to display your submit options: Today, Week till today, and Entire Week.

Auto submit

We also introduced the option to automatically submit your tracked time. This option is only available for the current week. If you switch on the Auto submit time entries at the end of the day toggle, each day (around 6 PM) VOGSY will submit the tracked time for the current day. This behavior will continue for all the weeks that follow until you switch off the toggle.

Only show today's activities

We added a filter that shows only the activities that are allocated for the current day. This filter hides activities that have a start date in the future or an end date in the past. Using this filter, you can easily see the activities you're supposed to work on today.

Notes per day

You can now have different notes for each time entry.

Click Note Per Day and the time entry form will expand to show a Note field for each time entry field.

For more information, see Tracking time in the VOGSY documentation.

New VOGSY version is coming!!

With much pride, we would like to announce that a brand new version of VOGSY is coming!! 

The dev team has given VOGSY a full-blown facelift so that it meets the latest standards in design and user experience. Also, the team completely overhauled the VOGSY engine to make it more robust and future-proof. 

Besides a fresh look and upgraded back-end, lots of other improvements were made to key features like Task management, Timesheets, and Boards. See What's new in this version to learn about all the major improvements we made to VOGSY.

Can't wait to see the new version? Well, we have good news: you can already experience the new version of VOGSY!

On the top of the menu panel, click the Experience the new VOGSY version now! option and your environment will be switched to https://preview.vogsy.io, which is the URL to the new version of VOGSY. Note that the counter displayed in parentheses is the number of days until the preview period ends, after which all VOGSY environments will be switched to the new version permanently.

During the preview period, you can return to the current version by simply navigating to the usual URL: https://vogsy.io.

You can also let us know what you think about the new version by sending an email to feedback@vogsy.com. Help us to make this latest version even better!

Temporarily down for maintenance

Saturday, 27th of March, VOGSY will be down for maintenance for approximately 30 minutes. We expect the downtime to begin between 8 PM - 10 PM Central European Time. Thanks for your patience.

We have release notes now

Starting this month we will begin distributing release notes on a monthly basis. The release notes for January 2021 lists all of the major updates and bugfixes for the entire year of 2020. The release notes that follow this initial release will only cover the preceding month.

Each release note will divide the updates between Front office changes and Back office changes. Furthermore, you can filter the data by role or by VOGSY component.

The biggest updates in 2020

In 2020 we released lots of improvements for VOGSY, but here are the top three:

• Placeholders. If you want to start planning for a project, but don't yet know which resources to assign, use a placeholder to reserve the hours necessary to complete the activities.
• Pre-filled timesheets. We added a new option to the Employee settings page that determines if VOGSY should pre-fill timesheets based on the hours set during planning, or if the employee should do it manually.
• New chart: Billable vs nonbillable hours. This chart displays data about the number of overall hours worked, as well as billable vs. non-billable work hours.

Go there right away!
