New changes in Project Flow
At Milient, we continuously improve Project Flow to deliver a better and more efficient user experience.
Changes:
Hours Report Performance Improvements
Why?
Working with large hour reports could sometimes feel slower when reviewing extensive amounts of data.
What's changed?
We've improved the performance of the Hours Report, making it faster and more responsive when handling large datasets. You can now browse, filter, and review thousands of time entries more smoothly, helping you find the information you need with less waiting.
Where can I find it?
You can access the Hours Report by navigating to Company > Reports > Hours.
Improved PDF & Excel Export Experience
We've improved export functionality to provide more consistent data presentation and better formatting in exported documents.
PDF and Excel exports now deliver more accurate formatting for numbers, dates, and percentages, making reports easier to read and review. We've also improved PDF layouts by expanding group headings across available space for a cleaner and more professional look.

These improvements apply to all reports where PDF and Excel exports are available.

Why?
Filtering resources by role in the monthly planning view could sometimes take longer than expected, especially when working with larger datasets.

In the Resource Planner.
New Functions:
