Attendance Keeper Project Management Feature Guide

The Project Management feature in Attendance Keeper allows you to organize and track tasks across multiple projects. It follows an Agile-style workflow, similar to tools like Jira, and helps teams manage their work efficiently.

Project

Viewing Existing Projects and Contributions

  • Overview: When you access the ’Projects’ section from the sidebar, you will land on the Ongoing Project page. Here, you’ll see an overview of all ongoing projects with key metrics, including the total number of tasks, assigned tasks, completed tasks, and overdue tasks.
  • Project Summary: Each project card provides a quick summary of the project’s progress, showing the percentage of tasks completed and the contributors involved.

Accessing Project Details

  • Navigating to a Project: Click on any project card to open the project’s detailed view.
  • Top Navigation Tabs:
    • Overview: Provides a high-level summary of the project, including a timeline and overall progress.
    • Tasks: This is where all tasks associated with the project are listed, divided into different columns based on their current status (e.g., ’To Do,’ ’In Progress,’ ’Review,’ ’Done’).
    • Discussion: Enables team members to collaborate and communicate regarding the project tasks and goals.

Managing Tasks

  • Task Board: Inside the Tasks tab, you will see a Kanban-style board where tasks are organized into columns representing different stages of completion. This layout makes it easy to track tasks at each stage of the workflow.
    • Columns: Tasks are categorized into different columns such as ’Backlog,’ ’To Do,’ ’In Progress,’ ’Review,’ and ’Done.’
    • Task Cards: Each task is represented by a card that shows key information such as task title, priority level, and assignee.

Modifying and Assigning Tasks

  • Task Details: To modify or update a task, double-click on the task card. This will open a sidebar where you can:
    • Assign the Task: Add or change the person responsible for completing the task.
    • Change the Status: Move the task to different columns like ’In Progress,’ ’Review,’ or ’Done.’
    • Update Information: Modify the task’s priority, due date, labels, or other relevant details.
    • Add Comments or Attachments: Collaborate with team members by adding comments or relevant files directly to the task.

Updating Task Progress

  • As tasks move through different stages of completion, you can change their status by dragging them between columns or using the task details sidebar. Mark tasks as ’Completed’ when they are done to keep the project up to date.

By following this process, your team can effectively track project progress, manage tasks, and collaborate seamlessly to ensure that all work is completed efficiently and on time.
