Taskjitsu tracks tasks from inception to completion, and allows users to report the amount of time spent on each project and task. Taskjitsu satisfies the needs of software development companies, consulting firms, and other organizations that need both flexible time and task tracking. It can generate billing summaries and payroll reports usable with any accounting system.
The system has been in production since 1997; its extensive features have been honed to allow the greatest possible ease in entering and editing data. It offers multiple options for configuring and customizing an installation to support the needs of diverse organizations.
Here are some key features of "Taskjitsu":
Portal View
Once logged in, users are greeted by a customizable portal page, which provides the following information:
How many hours they've worked in the current pay period
How long it's been since they updated their timesheet
How much leave they have
How many tasks they have open, broken down into
Those due soon / of high priority
Those assigned recently
Those ready or not to be tested
Those with new notes.
From there users can open a task timer, update the status of a task, or add a new note, as well as view all their open tasks, view all tasks, view all tasks assigned to another user, etc.
