Missing the Project Budget (to control the investment and spending) #707

Open Special-Niewbie opened 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I have tried many solutions similar to Leantime, and I can say that Leantime is the best in terms of ease of use, intuitive and there is essential information without messing with too many sub menus.

But, for the projects, one essential thing is missing, the Project Budget! Like how much investment I have for the project, and how much I will spend.

Describe the solution you'd like

The solution could be to insert "Projects Costing" or "Budgets" in the menu on the left. Once the "Projects Costing" item is selected, a screen similar to the current "Reports" item will appear. After selecting the Budget / Projects Costing, created at the beginning, you can fill many empty lines listed with all the expenses that are being made during the progress of the Project. And with the following interactive Cakes / Diagrams that update in real time with 3/4 items written under the Diagrams, for example:

Budget Investment - Budget Progress (or Actual Costs) - Difference - Persentage

Additional context

If necessaries later I will try to look for it and post some idea

Another one in this context: Let us edit the TYPE of the task like project management, programming, consulting, training and add hourly rates. It differs, whether you do 5 days programming or let them have 4 days of consulting. Then the budget could be calculated in $ instead of hrs.

For my part it would already be great to be able to add custom fields to tasks where I could enter "costs" to tasks and export them somehow. Format doesnt matter at the moment, may it be json, csv or some xml-type...
