Preview version


Activate the Preview Version

The preview version provides access to the new features of buildagil. These features are in the final testing phase before their general release. By activating the preview version, you can start using these features right away.


Since this is a preview version, buildagil may not behave as expected, and roles may still change before the general release. You can disable the preview version at any time.


To activate the preview version, click on the "profile picture" and then on "Preview."



Roles in the Preview Version

General:


Documents & Plans:


Tasks & Topics:


Journal:


General | Optimizing List Options

The actions in list views have been consolidated and are new and can now be accessed via the "Show Options" button. This results in a cleaner interface.



General | Caching Elements

For Tasks & Topics, journal entries, meetings, and inspections & acceptances, you can now save a draft by right-clicking the Save button without closing the item. This allows you to continue editing immediately.



The new feature allows you to create a shortcut for one or more documents directly from the context menu. This eliminates the need to manually enter the name and path.



For more information about links, see the following article: Links in the folder structure.


Tasks & Topics | Exporting Individual Elements

New features allow tasks, topics, and journal entries to be exported directly as Word or PDF files via the context menu.



For more information on exporting tasks, topics, and journal entries, see the following articles: Exporting Tasks & Topics, Exporting Journal Entries.


Tasks & Topics | Resetting Employees' Subtasks

The status of a subtask assigned to employees can now be manually set or reset by the project administrator, the task creator, or the person responsible for the task. This allows a subtask that has already been marked as completed to be set back to open.



For more information on completing subtasks, see the following article: Editing Tasks.


Journal | Data Entry via Voice Input


Since this role is still in development, it is likely that its functionality will change before its general release.


Journal entries can now be entered via voice input. By tapping the microphone icon, details such as title, classification, categories, description, involved company, person responsible, or due date are automatically assigned to the corresponding fields. Existing information—for example, that entered via a Template—is supplemented rather than overwritten, unless explicitly stated otherwise. If the responsible person is recognized, the associated company is also filled in automatically. Multiple voice recordings can be made in succession, with the information already captured being taken into account each time.



In the Mobile App, you can also record a voice memo as part of the description. This allows for offline data entry on the construction site, since the voice memo can be transcribed at a later time. The transcript can then be applied either just to the description or to the entire journal entry.
