Project Dashboard Overview

The Project Dashboard features a consolidated chart comparing actual hourly recordings against projected hours by project. Projects can be named, assigned expected monthly/yearly hours, which may vary each month. Further customization includes setting project names and descriptions, appointing a project manager, defining the project status (active/inactive/archived), adding members, and creating tasks with their own expected hours. Hourly recordings can be viewed on a monthly basis, broken down by employee or task. Individual employee time entries for the project are also accessible for detailed review.
