New Improvement Fix
Worklenz Home Redesign, Finance Module, Planner, Schedule, Roadmap & Fixes release screenshot

Worklenz v3.0 introduces four major additions: a redesigned Home dashboard with a unified task list, a central Inbox for project and client conversations, quick actions, and global search; a Projects area that now brings together an Overview dashboard, a portfolio-wide Roadmap, Recurring Tasks, Files, Templates, and Time Entries in one place; a workspace-wide Finance module covering profitability, budgets, invoices, expenses, billable time, utilization, and forecasts; and a new Planner for team scheduling, project timelines, and workload capacity. Alongside these, task list column filters, in-group project sorting, and comment-notification deep links round out the feature set, plus 7 improvements and 75+ fixes across Home, Roadmap, Scheduler, Project Timeline, Team Workload, and the rest of the app.

Features

Home

  • Redesigned Home dashboard
    Home now opens to a daily overview above one task list spanning every project and client, with search, group, sort, and filter built in.
    How to use:
    1. Open Home
    2. Review the daily overview banner
    3. Search, group, sort, or filter the unified task list below it
  • Central Inbox
    Project conversations and client conversations now live in one Inbox, with tabs to view All, Projects, or Clients separately instead of checking each one on its own.
    How to use:
    1. Open Home > Inbox
    2. Switch between the All, Projects, and Clients tabs
    3. Reply to any conversation without leaving Home
  • Quick actions
    A + menu in the top navigation creates a project, task, time log, or expense from anywhere in the app, and an Invite menu next to it adds team members or clients directly.
    How to use:
    1. Click the + icon in the top navigation
    2. Choose New Project, New Task, Log Time, New Expense, or New Client
    3. Use the Invite button to add a team member or client
  • Global search
    A single search bar finds tasks, projects, and clients by name from anywhere in the app.
    How to use:
    1. Click "Search anything" in the top navigation
    2. Type a task, project, or client name
    3. Select a result to jump straight to it

Planner

  • Schedule
    A day-by-day grid shows what every team member is booked on, hours logged against a daily capacity you can customize project-wide, and weekly utilization, so overloaded or underused members are visible at a glance.
    How to use:
    1. Open Planner > Members
    2. Review each member's daily bookings and utilization percentage
    3. Check the team average capacity row at the bottom of the grid
  • Project timeline
    A Gantt-style view lays out every project's phases against the calendar, with progress bars and a Today marker, so delivery status across projects is visible without opening each one.
    How to use:
    1. Open Planner > Timeline
    2. Scroll across weeks to see phase start and end dates alongside percent complete
    3. Use the Today marker to see what's in flight right now
  • Team workload
    An unscheduled task queue sits next to team capacity cards showing booked versus available hours per member for the week, making it clear who has room to take on more work.
    How to use:
    1. Open Planner > Workload
    2. Review the unscheduled task queue on the left
    3. Check each member's capacity card on the right and assign accordingly

Finance

  • Finance Overview
    A new workspace-wide Finance Overview shows revenue, cost, margin, and billable utilization across every project, backed by a revenue and profit trend chart, a cost breakdown, and a per-project profitability table. Budgets, Invoices, Expenses, Billable Time, Utilization, and Forecasts tabs sit alongside it in the same Finance section, replacing the need to open each project individually for financial health.
    How to use:
    1. Open Finance from the top navigation
    2. Review revenue, cost, margin, and utilization on the Overview tab

Task List

  • Column filters for task list and roadmap
    Filter by Status, Priority, and other columns directly in the task list and roadmap views, without switching to the board.
    How to use:
    1. Open a project's task list or roadmap
    2. Open the filter bar
    3. Filter by Status, Priority, or another available column
  • Open the task drawer directly from Add Task
    Open the full task drawer before typing a task name, for cases where you want to fill in details first.
    How to use:
    1. Click Add Task
    2. Use the expand option next to the input
    3. Fill in the task name and details directly in the drawer

Task Drawer

  • Comment notifications link directly to the comment
    Clicking a comment notification now opens the exact comment instead of just the project.
    How to use:
    1. Have someone mention you or reply in a task comment
    2. Open the notification
    3. Land directly on the task with that comment highlighted

Projects

  • Projects Overview dashboard
    The Projects landing page now shows delivery health, profitability, and workload signals for every active project in one list or grid view, so at-risk projects are visible without opening each one.
    How to use:
    1. Open Projects
    2. Switch between List and Grid view, or sort by health
    3. Check the Health, Profitability, and Workload columns to see what needs attention
  • Sort within groups and choose visible columns on the Projects list
    Sort projects inside an expanded group (by Priority, Status, Last Updated, and more) and toggle which columns appear via a Show Fields setting.
    How to use:
    1. Open the Projects list grouped by Category, Priority, or Client
    2. Sort within an expanded group
    3. Use the settings icon to show or hide columns
  • Roadmap
    A project-wide Gantt view lays out every project's timeline by month in one place, so scheduling conflicts across projects are visible without opening each one individually.
    How to use:
    1. Open Projects > Roadmap
    2. Scroll across months to see every project's timeline side by side
    3. Click a bar to open that project's detailed roadmap
  • Recurring Tasks
    A dedicated Recurring Tasks view lists every recurring task across all projects and teams in one place, with filters by frequency, status, and team, and shows the next scheduled occurrence for each.
    How to use:
    1. Open Projects > Recurring Tasks
    2. Filter by frequency, status, or team
    3. Pause, resume, or check the next occurrence of any recurring task
  • Files
    A centralized Files view lists every file uploaded across all projects in one searchable table, with the uploader, project, size, and upload date, instead of hunting through each project separately.
    How to use:
    1. Open Projects > Files
    2. Search by file name or scroll the table
    3. Download a file or open its project directly from the row
  • Templates
    Project Templates and Task Templates now share one library where you can browse, preview, and use any template without switching between separate menus.
    How to use:
    1. Open Projects > Project Templates or Task Templates
    2. Preview a template's phases, tasks, and estimated duration
    3. Click Use Template to start a new project or task from it
  • Time Entries
    A single Time Entries view lists every logged time entry across all projects and team members in one place, instead of checking each project's time log separately.
    How to use:
    1. Open Projects > Time Entries
    2. Search or filter by project, team, or member
    3. Review or edit any logged entry directly from the list

Improvements

UI/UX

  • The Home page Add Task button now stays in place after you create your first task instead of disappearing
  • Roadmap now has a single toggle to expand or collapse the sidebar, replacing the per-task expand control for that purpose
  • Organizations can now set a base currency so budgets, rates, and financial reports convert automatically for consistent, cross-project comparison
  • Deleting a project now uses a clearer, guided confirmation dialog that matches the account-deletion pattern instead of a plain text pop-up
  • All project template cards now use a consistent folder icon instead of a mix of folder and bug icons
  • The Job Title table now has the same rows-per-page control as other settings tables
  • Attachments added from the task drawer now show a progress bar, matching the existing file upload experience
