Less planning more doing

Focus on doing the work, not checking in

See exactly what the team is working on, along with where any bottlenecks are. Stay on top of every process.

Reallocate tasks on the fly.: Reallocate to another team member with the click of a button. They will be instantly notified of the new task.
Flex to fit priorities.: Shift due dates to match what you need to get done.
Check on progress.: See what's overdue and what needs attention in the detailed reporting dashboard.

Tracking all the little things your team does - review points, reminders, larger projects - used to be hard. Now it's Easy.

Review points.: Raising review points and ensuring that they are corrected can be a time consuming endeavor, however scratch pad tasks make it a breeze.
Multi Step Projects.: Scratch pads capture all those items that your team does outside of month end that have multiple steps and can involve multiple team members..
Team Management.: Set your team up with expected deliverables and monitor progress.

How is your week looking?

Plan out your week in advance

Plan your team's week ahead to capture everything that needs doing. Let your crew complete their work without constant check-ins.

One off items.: Help your team capture all those small items that will always appear, and get visibility on workload.
Different frequencies.: Not everything works on a monthly cycle in finance, so whether it is daily, weekly or fortnightly - you can capture it.
Today… tomorrow… every day.: Keep the wheels turning by tracking those everyday (or every Wednesday) tasks.
