Feature requests / Re: Notify the entire group when the entire group is assigned a task

« on: November 22, 2009, 04:45:01 am »

Thomas, how you can assign a task to entrie group? I have 7 users and 3 groups. And I can assign the task only to the one user or to company, I didn't see the created groups in the list on task edit form.
I have using OpenGoo 1.6-beta3, also try on OpenGoo 1.5.3.

Feature requests / View all tasks in progress of other users in Overview Dashboard

« on: November 22, 2009, 04:40:02 am »

By default I see only my tasks in progress on "My tasks in progress" widget.
But very often one user working only with one task simultaneously, and this info is not so usable.
Will be good to add an option for show all tasks in progress per project for all users, not only mine.

Feature requests / Add "Task state" filter to task list that shows tasks only on work and paused

« on: November 18, 2009, 05:26:45 am »

I am a project manager and have many tasks per workspace, assigned to different users.
I need to see what tasks are in state "on work" and "paused", but it is too difficult to find them in long list of tasks.
Filter have only this options:
Created by
Completed by
Assigned to
Assigned by
Milestone
Priority

And no of them can filter by task state (on work and on pause).

Will be good to add new option "Task state" with values:
In progrees
Paused
Not worked (tasks that have zero work time)
Worked (tasks that have work time more than zero)

How To's / How I can set email notification for outdated tasks?

« on: November 18, 2009, 03:58:27 am »

I have set the task with due date.
And I (and all subscribers) need to be informed by email if this task isn't closed up to the due date.
Example:
I am User1, set the task to User2 with due date 2009-11-17.
User2 start working, but didn't mark the task as "Complete" to end of 2009-11-17.
At start of new day (2009-11-18) opengoo cron task must check that this task not completed, but current date is over that the due date and sent the notification to all assigned users and subscribers.

How I can do this notification?

Very useful will be when I can look all tasks in progress per project.
How I can add all task in progress by all users into this widget?

Ideas / Re: Task Descriptions in Task Notifications

« on: November 12, 2009, 02:22:08 am »

Very good idea. And will be good to see the changes of previos version:
For example:

Name of Task
Task Description
Assigned to
Created by (and timestamp)
List of linked objects (maybe links into opengoo)
Due Dates:
10.11.2009
> changed to:
15.11.2009
WorkSpace
Subscribers

And do the diff for old and new "Task description", like this:
Task Description:
1) Do the first thing
- 2) Do the second thing
+ 2) Do the second important thing
3) Do the third thing

How To's / Re: Sync calendar/notes/contacts

« on: October 16, 2009, 06:44:54 am »

Most of users, I think, will be happy to see at first read-only sync of contacts & calendar.
For implement this, we can use iCal and GroupDAV protocols.

We can place an easy php-script on some address (export.php) that check the auth and generate read-only output with special format (iCal, CalDAV, GroupDAV, SyncML).

With this functionality we already can setup a lot of programs for view and show notifications of calendar events and many mail programs for searching within opengoo contacts.

With iCal we can export (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICalendar):
- Calendar events, Tasks

With CalDAV or GroupDAV we can export (http://www.groupdav.org/):
- Calendar events, Tasks

SyncML:
- Contacts, Calendar, Notes, Tasks

Feature requests / Re: Archive workspace

« on: October 15, 2009, 05:07:07 am »

Maybe better is change the state of workspaces instead of Archive/noArchive?

For example: Planned, In progress, Paused, Completed, Archived.
And add tabs or selectlist in workspaces widget for filter workspaces by this states?

Or add labels for workspaces instead of mark as archive (In development, Designing, Testing) and add filter by it to workspaces widget.

At now there are only custom filter by name for widgets and I can't find any method to filter workspaces by some property. And when the workspaces are many, the usability is bad.

How To's / Re: Use of groups

And will be good to add a project filter per groups, for example to see not all of projects, but only attached to one group.

Feature requests / Re: SyncML

« on: September 03, 2009, 07:40:37 am »

Before OpenGoo I have using the eGroupWare project, and it have a SyncML module for sync Contacts, Tasks and Events. I very often use sync contacts (both sides) with my Windows Mobile phone via Funambol SyncML, it is very useful for me and other in my organisation.
But eGroupWare have the VERY bad user interface, therefore OpenGoo is very useful and much better.

eGroupware is opensource, written in php+mysql, you can look at it sources forborrowing which some ideas. Will be good to add another sync methods (xmlrpc, ldap) too.

I can help you with betatesting of sync functions.

All of eGroupware sync capabilities is here: http://www.egroupware.org/sync
