Work the way your team actually works

This release is a small collection of features that fix friction you've probably just learned to live with.

Plan by duration

Don't have exact dates of the task? Enter working days instead. Set one date and the other fills in automatically, holidays respected. 

Also, when you update Start and End date, number of days are automatically updated.

The tool adapts to how planning actually works

Real working hours

Define your team's actual working days and hours. Task dates now calculate around your schedule, not a theoretical full week.

This will align with your duration. You wont be able to select start or end date on a non working day

Your currency

Set a preferred currency for resource and costing sections in your projects. USD is still the default, but your team's numbers should speak your language.

The same is reflected in Project cost in project detail as well as on timesheet report.

The duration-first planning feature is one we've wanted to build for a long time. Most tools require both a start and end date before they'll do anything useful. But that's not how real planning starts. You know roughly how long something takes, even when you don't know exactly when it happens.

Now you can plan that way. And as you do, Astravue quietly builds a record of your actual effort, so the next project you scope has real data behind it, not just gut feel.

These are small changes. But the right small changes are often what make a tool feel like it finally gets you.

Regards,

Team Astravue
