Chrometa Product Updates – May 2023

Introduction

As part of our ongoing commitment to improving your experience, the Chrometa team is excited to announce a series of updates rolled out in May 2023. These enhancements are designed to streamline your workflows, expand your global flexibility, and improve performance across your workspace.

This month’s updates introduce several highly requested features: the ability to delete rules in bulk for faster organization, Recurring Targets to simplify goal management, Multiple Currencies for international users, and a new Timesheet Approval feature currently in beta. Each of these updates reflects our dedication to listening to user feedback and continuously evolving Chrometa’s functionality.

Performance Boost: Delete Rules in Bulk

Managing time-tracking rules has always been a key part of keeping your Chrometa workspace efficient. However, as teams and projects scale, users have requested faster ways to manage their rule lists. We’re happy to introduce the new Delete Rules in Bulk feature, a performance-driven enhancement that saves time and reduces repetitive actions.

Why This Matters

Over time, teams accumulate numerous rules that automate task categorization and time assignment. While these rules are powerful, old or redundant entries can slow down system performance and complicate user management. Previously, deleting multiple rules required a manual, one-by-one approach. Now, with bulk deletion, you can select and remove multiple outdated rules simultaneously—making it easier to maintain an organized, optimized environment.

How It Works

To use this feature, navigate to your Rules section within Chrometa. You’ll now see checkboxes beside each rule. Select the ones you wish to delete, and choose the “Delete Selected” option. Chrometa will confirm the action and remove the selected rules immediately.

The process is quick, intuitive, and—most importantly—safe. You’ll receive a confirmation prompt before any permanent changes occur, ensuring that only the intended rules are deleted.

What Users Are Saying

Early adopters of this enhancement have praised the improvement in speed and ease of use. Teams managing large datasets have reported significantly reduced cleanup times and better overall app responsiveness after removing unused rules.

New Feature: Recurring Targets

Staying productive and accountable requires setting measurable goals. With the introduction of Recurring Targets, Chrometa helps you automate your goal-setting process so you can stay focused on what matters most—your work.

Introducing Recurring Targets

Recurring Targets enable you to establish ongoing goals that renew automatically based on a time interval—daily, weekly, or monthly. Whether you’re tracking billable hours, productivity benchmarks, or project milestones, Recurring Targets ensure that your goals reset consistently without the need for manual updates.

Use Cases for Teams and Individuals

• Law Firms: Automatically reset billable hour goals each week.
• Consultants: Track recurring project deliverables with ease.
• Freelancers: Stay accountable to monthly productivity targets.
• Managers: Monitor team output and performance trends over time.

Setting Up Recurring Targets

Setting up a Recurring Target is simple: head to your “Targets” section, create a new target, and select your preferred recurrence frequency. Chrometa will handle the rest—automatically resetting and tracking your progress at each interval.

Why It Matters

Recurring Targets help create a rhythm of accountability, making it easier for individuals and teams to stay consistent over the long term. The automation minimizes administrative work and encourages users to engage regularly with their productivity metrics.

New Feature: Multiple Currencies

As Chrometa’s user base expands across global markets, flexibility in financial tracking has become a key priority. We’re proud to introduce Multiple Currencies, enabling users to manage time entries, billable rates, and reports in their preferred currency.

Supporting Global Teams

This feature allows organizations with international clients or distributed teams to easily accommodate diverse billing requirements. Each project or client can now be assigned its own currency, streamlining invoicing and eliminating the need for manual conversions.

How It Works

When creating or editing a project, you can now select a currency from a comprehensive dropdown list. Chrometa will automatically apply that currency to all associated time entries and reports. Currency values are displayed consistently throughout your workspace to avoid confusion.

Benefits at a Glance

• Accurate billing across global clients
• Seamless currency alignment between projects
• Reduced manual conversion errors
• Improved clarity in reports and exports

With Multiple Currencies, Chrometa continues to evolve as a truly global time-tracking and productivity solution—empowering businesses to operate effortlessly across borders.

In Beta: Timesheet Approval

Our new Timesheet Approval feature, currently in beta, introduces a structured way for managers and administrators to review and approve timesheets before final submission. This feature addresses a critical need for teams managing multiple contributors or client-facing projects.

Streamlining the Approval Process

Timesheet Approval adds an essential layer of oversight to Chrometa’s time-tracking workflow. Managers can now view submitted timesheets, verify the accuracy of logged hours, and approve or return entries for revision.

Key Beta Features

• Submit timesheets for review with a single click
• Approve, reject, or comment on submissions
• View approval history and status tracking
• Enable permissions by role for greater control

The beta release allows us to collect valuable user feedback to refine the experience before the full rollout. We invite teams to test this feature and share insights that will help us make Timesheet Approval even more powerful and intuitive.

Who Can Participate in the Beta

Current Chrometa users with team management privileges can opt into the beta program from their account settings. Beta participants will gain early access to the feature and receive updates as we enhance functionality and performance.

What These Updates Mean for You

Together, these updates mark another step forward in Chrometa’s evolution. By focusing on performance improvements, recurring workflows, global flexibility, and accountability, we’re equipping our users with smarter tools to manage their time and projects efficiently.

Whether you’re part of a growing firm, a global enterprise, or an independent professional, Chrometa’s latest features are designed to help you save time, reduce friction, and gain greater control over your workday.
