We are leveraging the projects360 Quick Project Search feature within the mobile app, providing users with an efficient project search experience. Search fields are dynamically configured based on quick project search parameters in projects360.


Parameter Setup

Under the “Quick Project Search” tab in the projects360 parameters, there is a set of parameters available to configure the search functionality within the timesheet app. This quick search feature organizes projects hierarchically, displaying them based on the searched text. It allows users to easily select the correct project when submitting their time and expenses.
