# Product updates: new features and improvements

> Stay up to date with new features, improvements, and changes to Beebole. Monthly updates on integrations, reports, workflows, and more.

<Update label="August 2026" tags={["Reports","Planning","Timesheet","Settings"]}>
  August adds three new reports — **Revenue at Risk**, **Utilization**, and **Timesheet Compliance** — turns your plans into automatic timesheet entries, and makes the Gantt and Staffing views sharper for day-to-day resource planning.

  ### Reports

  * New **Revenue at Risk** report: for hourly and daily-billed projects with an end date, see how many budgeted hours will still be unconsumed by that date — converted into a revenue amount, with totals for the amount at risk and the projects behind it. See [Reports](/help/documentation/reports).
  * New **Utilization** report: billable hours as a share of each person's scheduled capacity per month, with capacity net of time off and a projection for next month based on planned bookings.
  * New **Timesheet Compliance** report: a person-by-period grid showing who submitted on time, late, or not at all, with a per-person score, hover details, filtering, and export. Access is a dedicated permission — managers see the people they manage.
  * The [Planned vs. Real](/help/documentation/reports) report grows up: read it in hours, days, billing, cost, or margin; chart several plans at once; flip between cumulative and remaining (burndown) views with an ideal-burn line and a **Behind / On track / Ahead** pace headline; and a new chart shows time over or under plan per person.
  * The [AI report builder](/help/documentation/ai) now remembers the conversation — follow-up requests refine the report you just built.

  ### Planning & staffing

  * Gantt, Kanban, and Staffing views gain a **Filters** button — filter by task, status, owner, assigned person, project, or tags.
  * New capacity finder on the people view: search who's available over a chosen period — including forward-looking ranges like "By year end" — with over-booking flagged directly on the [Staffing](/help/documentation/staffing) timeline.
  * The booking editor now takes allocation as a percent, hours per working day, or total hours, and a booking can be marked **Tentative** — it reserves capacity but stays out of reports until confirmed. Split a booking in two or duplicate it in one click.
  * Dependency links now work fully in Staffing: links are drawn between bars, linked bookings follow the drag live, and you can drag and resize dependent bookings directly.
  * Multi-select on the [Gantt](/help/documentation/gantt) and Staffing timelines: drag several bars together, hold ⌘ to drop dated copies, or resize the whole selection at once — all undoable in a single step.
  * Lock the Gantt or Staffing view to a fixed week, month, quarter, or year fitted to your screen, and refill a period from the previous one with the new **Copy previous period** action.
  * Move a booking between rows by dragging it vertically — onto another person to reassign it, onto another project, or onto the unassigned row to clear the owner.
  * Unassigned work is now visible and actionable: an unassigned row in Staffing holds it, and everyone involved gets an email before an unassigned task starts.

  ### Timesheets

  * New Favorites bar on the [calendar view](/help/documentation/timesheets): pin your usual projects, tasks, and time-off types and drop them straight onto the grid. Clicking one creates the entry immediately, using the start time and duration you usually log.
  * New **Auto Timesheet from Planning** option: what was planned for a person becomes their timesheet entries automatically, and Kanban card moves now fill a day properly — splitting it between tasks finished the same day, with manual entries always winning.
  * The [desktop app's](/help/documentation/desktop-app) activity tracking is now opt-in: nothing is observed until you explicitly turn it on, a plain-language card explains exactly what is read and what stays on your machine, and you can pause or stop tracking anytime from the menu bar icon.
  * Work on several calendar entries as a group: shift-click a range or ⌘-click entries, then move, duplicate, resize, or delete them all in one undoable step.
  * Each time entry now holds exactly one activity — a task, an absence, or projects — so switching an entry's activity replaces the previous one and nothing counts twice in reports.

  ### Settings & permissions

  * Role targets are reorganised: the old "my" scope is split into what you *manage* versus your *colleagues*, and task access separates tasks you own from tasks you manage. Existing roles migrate automatically. See [Roles](/help/documentation/roles-authorisations).
  * Timesheet settings are now **Timesheet and Planning Settings**, and task categories are called **Plannings** throughout the app.
  * A new [time restriction](/help/documentation/timesheetSettings) keeps start and end times inside the day's scheduled hours — as a warning or a hard block.
  * A [public holiday](/help/documentation/public-holidays) calendar's country can now be changed freely — it is no longer locked once loaded.
</Update>

<Update label="July 2026" tags={["Planning","Timesheet","AI","Reports","Integrations"]}>
  July brings three new ways to plan and track your time: a drag-and-drop **Calendar view** for your timesheet, time entries suggested automatically from your activity, and a new **Staffing** view for resource planning. You can now also connect AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT to your Beebole data.

  ### Planning

  * New [Staffing view](/help/documentation/staffing) for tasks, alongside the Gantt and Kanban: drag on a long-horizon timeline to book people onto projects, set each booking's allocation percentage, and see everyone's workload and remaining capacity at a glance — grouped by people or by project, filterable by tag.
  * A booking no longer needs a name: assign a person to a project for a date range, and Beebole names it automatically from the two.
  * Gantt and Staffing timelines can now scroll into the past, switch **Planned** figures between hours and days, and auto-scroll when you drag a bar to the edge of the screen.

  ### Timesheets

  * New [Calendar view](/help/documentation/timesheets) for your timesheet: a day-by-hour grid where you drag and resize entries to set start and end times. Hold ⌘ while dragging to duplicate an entry, or hover over one to delete it.
  * Beebole now [suggests time entries automatically](/help/documentation/ai) — from your computer activity (via the new [desktop app](/help/documentation/desktop-app) and [browser extension](/help/documentation/browser-extension)), from Kanban cards moved to a done column, and from recurring patterns. Accept, edit, or dismiss each suggestion from a tray.
  * Each timesheet section now has its own **Clear rows** button that removes just that section's rows for the current period — and you can undo it with Ctrl+Z.
  * Public holidays no longer count toward required hours, so timesheets aren't flagged as under-time for them.
  * New [time restriction](/help/documentation/timesheetSettings) for admins: only allow time entries within the working hours defined in the schedule.

  ### Reports & budgets

  * [Build a report from a plain-language question](/help/documentation/ai) — describe what you want and get the report back.
  * A redesigned [reports experience on mobile](/help/documentation/mobile): pick a folder, change the period, and read each report from your phone.
  * New drill-down detail sheets on the **Budget Status** and **Absence Quotas** reports — tap into a single project or person for the breakdown.
  * [Budget alerts](/help/documentation/budgets) now include a burn-rate forecast that warns you when current spending is on track to exceed a budget.
  * Reports and report folders with no saved period now default to the current month instead of pulling in every record ever logged.

  ### Integrations & apps

  * Connect AI assistants such as **Claude and ChatGPT** to your Beebole data through the new [MCP server](/help/integrations/mcp-server), and review or disconnect them anytime from the **Connected apps** list.
  * Download the [desktop app](/help/documentation/desktop-app) (macOS, Windows, Linux) and [browser extension](/help/documentation/browser-extension) (Chrome/Edge, Firefox) directly from **Connected apps**, with step-by-step install instructions.
  * The [monday.com integration](/help/integrations/monday) is now available to everyone.
  * The [import from a legacy Beebole account](/help/documentation/legacy-migration) is now granular: choose exactly which data to bring over — people, projects, tags, schedules, budgets, time records, and more — with live counts shown before you start.

  ### Notifications

  * Approvers now receive an approval digest summarizing timesheets awaiting their review, including a flag for days with significant after-hours time.
  * Timesheet summary emails now show the full project and task path, making entries easier to identify.
  * Notifications are only sent to people who actually belong to your organization — archived people and expired invitations no longer receive them.
</Update>

<Update label="June 2026" tags={["Languages","Timesheet","Time off","Reports","Security"]}>
  Beebole is now available in ten languages, admins get precise control over how time is logged, and unused time off can carry forward into the next period.

  ### Now in ten languages

  * The app is fully available in nine more languages alongside English: Czech, German, Spanish, French, Hungarian, Italian, Dutch, Polish, and Portuguese.

  ### Timesheets & approvals

  * New organization-wide [time restrictions](/help/documentation/timesheetSettings) let admins govern how time is logged: keep entries within a project's or person's validity dates, block future-dated entries, require a comment on submission, cap or require hours against the schedule, allow time only on working days, limit time off to the available quota, and keep absences to a single day.
  * Time records can now be locked by approval state and role — for example, preventing edits once a timesheet has been submitted or approved.
  * New **Lock date** that freezes all time records on or before a chosen day — no one can create, edit, move, or delete them, admins included. Set it organization-wide or per person, team, or project.
  * [Approval](/help/documentation/approval) improvements for managers: a sticky action bar with always-visible **Approve** and **Reject** buttons, accurate per-person and per-period totals, and drill-down into project and task breakdowns.

  ### Time off

  * Unused absence allowance now carries forward into the next period, limited by a cap you choose, and each allowance shows how much has been consumed — accurately, even when allowances overlap. See [Time off](/help/documentation/timeoff).
  * Time off type pickers now show only the types each person is actually allowed to use — including when a manager logs time off on someone's behalf.
  * [Public holiday](/help/documentation/public-holidays) calendars now cover past years as well as upcoming ones, can be loaded for a specific year, and keep your custom changes when reloading.

  ### Reports

  * Report columns can now be reordered, marked as subtotals, and hidden when empty — and subtotals stay correctly scoped within their group. See [Custom reports](/help/documentation/custom-reports).
  * New columns and filters: hourly and daily billing and cost rates, markup percentage, time-entry comments as a column, and filtering by project or task category (including "is not" exclusions). Matrix reports can swap rows and columns.
  * New [Excel add-in](/help/documentation/excel-addin): open Beebole reports directly in Excel and refresh the data with one click. Both the Excel and [Google Sheets](/help/documentation/gsheets-addon) add-ins now offer many more report columns and let you pick your data region (Europe or America).
  * Report folders gain an "Absence / working time" scope that switches every report in the folder between working time and time off in one place.

  ### Access & security

  * You can now [sign in with a passkey](/help/documentation/authentication).
  * [Authorizations](/help/documentation/roles-authorisations) now support separate view and edit permissions with a search box, plus new granular permissions controlling who can assign managers, tasks, schedules, time off, expenses, custom fields, and tags.
  * The "People manager" role has been renamed to **Team lead**.

  ### Other improvements

  * Projects and people can now have a validity period (start and end dates).
  * [Inviting people](/help/documentation/people) now sends invitations in bulk, with a clear summary of how many were sent, already in the organization, or missing an email address.
  * The [QuickBooks export](/help/integrations/quickbooks) now sends each entry's billing rate and billable status, includes the comment as the description, and matches customers and items correctly at any level of the project hierarchy.

<Update label="June 2026" tags={["Launch"]}>
  ## Welcome to the new Beebole

  After many months — really, years — of work, the new Beebole is here. We rebuilt the app from the ground up: faster, more flexible, and shaped around how teams track time today. This first note is a heartfelt thank-you to everyone who helped us get here, and a quick look at what's waiting for you.

  **If you've been with us a while:** your existing account keeps running exactly as it is — nothing disappears, and there's no deadline to move. When you're ready, your data comes across in one guided step. The full story, feature by feature, lives in the [Migration guide](/help/guides/migration).

  **New to Beebole?** The [Quickstart](/help/documentation/quickstart) takes you from sign-up to your first report in six steps.

  ### A few things we're proud of

  * **Time tracking that bends to your rhythm** — configurable timesheet periods, entry in hours, days, or percent, work-from-home and non-billable flags, and your calendar dragged straight onto the timesheet.
  * **Planning that's actually planning** — tasks are first-class now, with a Kanban board, a Gantt timeline, dependencies, and workload at a glance.
  * **Approvals, your way** — multi-stage workflows, approve or reject right from an email or your phone, and a full history on every timesheet.
  * **Sharper insight** — custom fields across projects, people, tasks, and time; project expenses; and richer reports.
  * **Connected** — Jira, Asana, and Linear integrations, Google and Microsoft calendars, and a modern [GraphQL API](/help/api/introduction).

  This is just the beginning — we'll keep shipping, and this is where you'll hear about it first. Thank you for being part of the journey, and tell us what you think at [support@beebole.com](mailto:support@beebole.com).
