Challenge: Temporarily Disabling Users

I have a need to 'disable' a user - only for a short time - becuase he changed work assignments, on vacation, etc. I dont want to delete the user, as I want to retain the settings, assignments, etc with the user.

Task Intelligence - % Complete, Status

I love the DeskAway task management concept; however, I’d love to see a few more 'intelligence' pieces to make it a more useful tool for me and my team. I will use MS Outlook task manager as an example. It allows me to enter "STATUS" (Not started, In Progress, Waiting on Someone Else) and % Complete. Those statuses allow a project manager to go into the system and see the pending work - and the status - without going outside of the system to remind or ask some one. Just a thought - but I'd love % complete first!

I like the sound of that design Sal - I would only add it to that the tasks be archived - so I can go back and see them.

Can I archive my completed tasks?

When I go into my DeskAway portal, (I am a Superuser) I see all of my completed tasks crossed out. The view is becoming cluttered. Can I modify the view so that I dont see completed tasks? Or can I "archive" tasks that have been completed? Thanks!

Blog Formatting - Pictures and WYSIWYG

Blog Enhancements - It would be very helpful to have the ability to add pictures into ablog - AND have it keep the formattign from a Word editor - in my case MS Word. When I copy and paste, I loss the carriage returns in the post - it is not A WYSIWYG in a copy-->paste world.

At this point not too much for me. Howard makes a good point about the priority tasks -

Phil replied on July 18, 2008 15:35 to the question "Printing task reports" in DeskAway Project Collaboration:

Thanks Sal - and I think it was mentioned already - but having the option to export the details of the task (and/ or the applicable comments) would go far in status meetings - so you ahve some idea about what the task is about, the history, etc.

Phil replied on July 14, 2008 16:50 to the question "Risk Charter for DeskAway" in DeskAway Project Collaboration:

Sal! Great idea! That is exactly what I was hoping for - maybe with a reporting ability also - to print the "Project Risk Report" would be handy.

Phil replied on July 11, 2008 15:26 to the question "Risk Charter for DeskAway" in DeskAway Project Collaboration:

Hi Sal, From a PM perspective, risks and issues are different project elements; risk can be quantified with a financial, time, or scope impact while issues are things that need to get resolved; issues may turn into risks as time progresses, but they are different things. Using the PMBOK as a guide in this effort, something that provides a basis for Quantitative Risk Analysis. As you comment, something very similar to the "Issues" Function - but include in a "Risk" function "Probability" and "Impact" so we can quantify the risk in terms oh High, medium, Low, etc.

Risk Charter for DeskAway

Many of the components of Project Management are in DeskAway; however, I'd love to see a way to enter Risks and manage those as separate elements. Something that includes:
-Risk Name
-Description
-Assigned
-Impact (High, Medium, Low)
-Probability (High, Medium, Low)

Is this something on the development docket?

How do I change the name of my Company?

Right now the company is listed as "personal" and I wan to pumy company name into that field.

I am referring to the name under the user name under the "Team" tab. Thanks!

I cannot find where I change my password. Am I missing a tab or function?
