Why Task Execution History Is Needed
Task execution history shows who completed a task or a group of tasks and when, how many times, how many minutes were spent, and how much was accrued under piecework pay. It combines task tracking, time tracking, and payroll calculation in a single calendar available to both the employer and the employee.
- The employer sees team progress and amounts for each employee.
- The employee tracks their own income and workload.
The history is built on data from recorded completions and preserves the link “who, when, how much was earned.”
