Collaboration on clients and projects isn´t supported right now? #209

Open fpPierre opened 1 year ago

fpPierre commented 1 year ago

Considering the table schema it seems as a collaboration on projects and clients is support or considered within the concept. Unfortunately I haven´t found any control to share clients and projects.

In addition the reporting controller provides a group by "user" although there is only the tracked time of the user itself outlined.

Can somebody tell me more about the current situation and the concept / future perspective?

To be hones I would like to use the time tracker in a collaboration environment and I would like to get a transparent overview about the efforts my team has managed.

I'm just a user of the app, but we are using it in a small team (2 people). We also had the impression that projects and clients cannot be shared, so our workaround is to name projects the same among users and then use an admin login to view (and download) all user's times. Issue 177 indicates that it should indeed be possible to assign users to projects but is not working ...

Thank you very much for your statement about the made experiences.

You wrote that a admin user can be used to view and download data.

Can you tell me, how it was possible to define the admin?

fpPierre commented 1 year ago

OK I have enabled the admin for using this app.

Due that I´ve got the explained overview.

To be honest I would like to define the admin by myself or ideally a admin per each group

fpPierre commented 1 year ago

I placed my user to the global root admin group to become admin as well. It would be great to define this by groups.

@SehLax be careful with using the same names among different users as there can be side effects. See #215.

isn't this a duplicate of https://github.com/mtierltd/timetracker/issues/2 ?

fpPierre commented 1 year ago

Is there any particular reason not to provide a project overview for the admin in which the admin can allocate users to projects?

printplaatreparatie commented 1 year ago

isn't this a duplicate of #2 ?

I think the original question of #2 is indeed about collaboration inside Timetracker, but has been misread as a feature request to connect to Deck and other apps.

Both features are very welcome, but a support for sharing projects and clients is the most pressing for me and seems to be partly implemented.
