Leon Leslie wrote:> I love it.. question doh.. > > why do i need a shipping fee for services rendered?Hi Leon, Thanks very much for the feed back. -- To clarify, the shipping fee is there because you can add non-timebased items to your timesheets/invoices. For example, if you''re a graphic designer and you FedEx''d some comps to a client, you might want to charge them for the shipping. : ) Jason --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

Jason, Nice site. A suggestion: for a pay site built around recording time, I''d expect the time entry part to be very quick and flexible. Drop downs for hours, minutes, dates etc. are tedious. If I wanted to record time, I''d like to click a date, then enter something like the following in a field 4p-7p client1 7p-11p client2 or maybe even 2hrs client1 4hrs client2 Another suggestion: I started entering time and realised that I hadn''t created a client yet. Having seen some ajax earlier in the app, I clicked ''add client'' assuming an ajax form that would allow me to enter a new client without losing the time I had already entered. It didn''t. Had to enter the time again.

Hi Jason The site looks good! I had the same problem as Hammed Malik. After adding a customer I had to reenter the time… minor problem, but it takes away the “fun” you advertise on your front page. Also, when adding a timesheet item for the current day I’d like the drop down boxes to default to a somewhat reasonable value. When adding a timesheet for today, the 21st, the date fields default to the 15th(!) and how come the start or end time aren’t set to something reasonable either? The way it is now I have to type in all the information manually and that takes to much time. Or rather, it is a job I don’t want to have to do. I’d be happy if the date defaulted to the date I clicked in the calendar and if the start and end times were set to the current time when adding a timesheet for the current day. That way I would normally only have to set either the start or the end time in addition to selecting a customer. Also, it would most definitively be nice with a feature like the one suggested by Hammed Malik where one could add timesheets as easily as writing 4p-7p client1 or 7p-11p client2 It would also be nice if you added the possibility of using other currencies than $. I can’t bill my Norwegian customers in dollars. Also. If a customer has an e-mail address associated with her account. Wouldn’t it be reasonable to be able to e-mail the invoice directly to that address without having to type in the address manually? Alternatively one could add a second invoice e-mail address to a customer’s details that the invoices could be sent to. Or, a third solution: when sending an invoice the user of the system could be presented with a dropdown box of all e-mail addresses added to the customer receiving the invoice and an additional textfield where she could type in an alternative address… Best of luck with your app!

Hey Jason, Looks great, there''s a good eye for design here. I''m no ajax expert, but from a usability standpoint, back button functionality is pretty critical. Might want to consider the next version supporting that. And ya, I second the comments about submit buttons being below the forms.
