Enhanced Time Tracking Functionality
Feature Overview:
I would like to suggest the addition of a more accessible and versatile time recording feature. The idea is to have a time recording option readily visible at the top of the main page header. This would allow users to quickly initiate time tracking, for instance, when receiving a phone call from a customer, without the need to navigate away from their current page.
Functionality Details:
Instant Start/Stop: Users should be able to start and stop the time recording with a single click from the main header. This ensures that capturing the duration of impromptu tasks or customer interactions is seamless and hassle-free.
Description and Ticket Association: Post-call or task completion, users would have the option to add a detailed description of the time spent and associate it with an existing ticket or create a new ticket directly from the time entry interface. This integration would streamline workflow and ensure accurate and efficient ticketing and time tracking.
Time Entry Categorization: To enhance the tracking and analysis of time spent on various activities, the feature should include the ability to categorize time entries. Categories such as Phone Call, Email, Alert Response, and others would provide valuable insights into how time is being allocated across different types of tasks and customer interactions.
Benefits:
Implementing this feature would not only enhance the user experience by making time tracking more accessible and less intrusive to the workflow but also improve the accuracy of time reporting and billing. It would enable users to capture and categorize every minute spent on customer-related activities effortlessly, thereby increasing productivity and ensuring a more detailed and accurate account of work performed.
