TimeLog Extranet Hints & Shortcuts

Friday, February 08, 2008 by Jamie Matthew Schmidt | Tips and Tricks

We have collected a few good tips from our support manager in our Help-Desk department, Thomas S. Gudmandsen. We hope that you can use these tricks of the trade to make the most of your TimeLog Project systems.

Better Search

If you wish to make a search for a precise letter combination which is not necessarily the first letters in the project-, customer-, or client name, here is a tip. By adding a %-sign in front of your search criterion, you will see a list where the letter combination is a part of the search result. This can help you to find exactly what you are searching for in no time. Especially in companies with many departments and projects, this can be a very useful function. NB. remember that a quick way to make a super search is by using the F2 key.

Press F1 for Online Help

For those who are not aware of it, TimeLog Project also includes an online help. This help is updated regularly, therefore, if you have run into a problem you can look for help here. You will find the online help in the top right corner in all menus or when pressing the hot key F1.

Customize your terms of payment

If your company has customers that have different terms of payment than others, for example good customers with an extra long credit, you have the opportunity to adjust that as a default in the system administration. Go to 'system administration' choose 'finance/billing' and then 'payment terms'. Now it is possible to edit the periodicity and at the same time attach a single customer to the changed payment terms.
