Topic: Vacation Days (and Holidays)

Has there been any updates as to when/if the global holiday feature will be added? Do you have any suggestions as to how to input holiday time for multiple employees without having to create separate tasks for each individual? Thanks!

Great! We’ll try it out!

We just shipped a minor update to the scheduling engine that should make your events work better.

Our recommended technique is still to create your events as high priority task in a container a the top of the list like this:

• Events / Out of Office
  • Vacation, Charles, 5 days – 5 days, Delay Until 6/1/08
  • Conference, Bob, 3 days – 3 days, Delay Until 7/5/08

If you do this, other work should flow around it. We have plans on the drawing board for a specific type of task for events that will make this easier but I do not have a release date for that yet.

Any progress, or estimate on when this might be ready? There are a couple of us who travel a bit and we are having a hard time making that work. We’ve done the “insert into task list at about the right time” thing, but it would really be better to schedule meetings, travel, holidays, etc.

Sample Party Plan

Until Bruce whips something better up. Here is a very simple quick one for you:

name, owner, low, high
task a, adam, 1, 2
task b, bruce, 2, 3

Paste that into a text file, import it, and you will get 2 tasks assigned to Adam and Bruce. Of course you should probably use real people who have been invited to your space.

Absolutely. We’re going to have to tackle vacations and custom work schedules sometime soon. I’ll make sure we keep your suggestion in mind.

I will attach one to this in and hour or two.

Please stand by. :-)

You can build a set of tasks in Excel and then import that list.

It sounds simplistic, but I’ve used it a bunch with several of our customers and it works really well.
