Title: Daily Report plug-in

This plug-in is the updated version of JPBO4323 and provides a special customized form and single view for posting a "daily report". An entry posted by this plugin should be an event (a schedule) and be displayed in the Calendar view whereas the daily journal entry doesn't show up in the Calendar view.

In some Japanese companies, it is common to look back what an employee did in the day, write a summary, and submit it to his/her boss. This is called "日報" (daily report or daily journal) and it's a way of sharing information between employees and bosses in the hierarchy. If you are interested in the ways of business in Japanese companies, you may find this blog post interesting.

Install

Click the link below to download com.traction.form.dailyreport-Version.zip file. (Version means a version number.)

Upload the zip file in Server Settings > Plugins page.

After uploading, you will see the I18N error as following. But don't worry. This error means "you need to restart TeamPage server to load the I18N resources (language files)."

Click [Restart TeamPage] in Server Settings > General > Manage Server page. If your TeamPage server is hosted in Traction's cloud environment, you will need to restart your server twice to load the I18N resources correctly.

After restarting, you will see that the plugin's name show up correctly.

Ranking

If you move "Ranking" to the "Selected" area (the right area), you will see the "Ranking" sub-tab.

In this "Ranking" page, authors of the Daily Report entries in the selected time slice are ordered by the numbers of posts. (This feature was requested by a customer in Japan but I set it to be hidden as default since I'm not sure how this is effective in general work.)

You can select the color of the bars in "Ranking Bar Color" configuration.
