ToDo’s serve as SquidWebs internal messaging system. Users can created a ToDo for another team member that links them directly to the page where the task needs doing.
Once the ToDo has been assigned to another user, it will be visible on the Today page of both the creator and the recipient until it is completed.
The only way to complete a ToDo, is to create a “ToDo Complete” and send it back to the creator.
You can even create ToDos for yourself!
If a crew member’s profile picture is bigger than 100kb it can slow SquidWeb down, if there are many crew members with large profile pictures this can greatly affect the time taken to load features like the crew planner.
To solve this issue simply resize the image to remove and unnecessary background content from the photo.
Tab works in SquidWeb in the same way it functions throughout Windows- Tab will move focus to the next tab stop and Shift+Tab will move focus back to the previous tab stop.
This can be used to navigate projects pages or dialoges.
However, when a dialog pops up, using Shift+Tab will jump focus straight to the last tab stop, allowing you to release the dialog instantly.
When a rate card with an external minimum call is applied to a project, that minimum call will automatically be displayed on project calculation reports.
If a position is booked for only 2hrs, the project calculations will still display the full length of the minimum call.
The minimum call of individual positions can also be edited at any time from the rates’ container in the SidePanel, so you don’t need to edit the rate card if a different minimum call is agreed upon.
After the project is done and the CL uploads the project reports to SquidWeb, it will appear on your today page.
Use the doc to fill in the project hours and then be sure to mark it as process so others know the job is done!
A correctly processed document will no longer appear in the today page documents container.
If you are working in squid and need access to the menu or to visit a different page, using these shortcuts will allow instant access:
[Menu] will open the context menu
[CTRL+Shift ] will open the container & main menu
[Return] will open the data row menu
If you create a new project via the context menu in the projects list, a new project dialog with the same client and company will be triggered!
The context menu is accessed by right clicking on a project or pressing the menu key on your keyboard.
