As we continue our focus on enhancing the reporting functionality throughout Teamwork this quarter, we’re delighted to introduce the first of three Planned vs Actual Reports — the Planned vs Actual Milestones Report. The aim of this new report is to give you an understanding of the actual status of your Milestones by comparing the original due dates with your current due or completed dates. With this view, you can quickly identify how a project is performing against your plan.

Whether you’re onboarding a new tool within an organization or using an existing tool, it’s critical for your team to get the maximum use out of it. However, it’s just as important to ensure your team is using it as effectively and efficiently as possible. We know that many project management tools can be limited in their functionality and others may be too feature-heavy and it can be a little unclear on where to focus within the product to gain the most value.

Trying to manage a project with multiple moving parts can feel like herding cats. Aligning the assorted tasks so they tie up neatly and ensuring everyone’s on the same page at all times is hard work. Enter the project manager’s best friend: a project timeline. A project timeline allows you to bulk schedule tasks so that you can see what needs to be done when and keep an eye on the overall timeline of a project.

Over the last two months, we’ve put significant focus on building out the reporting functionality in Teamwork. And we’re thrilled to say this is the first of many new reports that will launch this quarter.
