These were caught by the project's own flake8 step but the failing
checks have been red on a number of recent runs, suggesting it's worth
fixing the underlying defects rather than ignoring the rule.
1. app/routes/auth.py — F821: undefined name 'datetime'
`current_user.two_factor_confirmed_at = datetime.utcnow()` (line ~620)
used `datetime` without importing it. Confirming 2FA raises
`NameError: name 'datetime' is not defined` at runtime.
Adds `from datetime import datetime` to the imports.
2. app/routes/timer.py — F823: local variable '_' referenced before assignment
`from flask_babel import gettext as _` is imported at module scope.
Four functions then unpack `can_start, _ = TimeTrackingService().can_start_timer(...)`
which makes `_` a function-local for the entire enclosing scope and
shadows the i18n alias. Three earlier `flash(_("..."))` calls in the
same functions (lines 171, 449, 2019) reference the local before it
exists and raise `UnboundLocalError` at runtime.
Fix: rename the throwaway slot from `_` to `_unused` in all four
`can_start_timer` unpackings. The translation alias resolves cleanly
in every flash() call again.
Total: +6 / -4 across two files.

Introduce a centralized OTel layer (app/telemetry/otel_setup.py) that reuses
the existing OTLP endpoint and token, exports traces and metrics over OTLP/HTTP,
and instruments Flask plus SQLAlchemy. Manual OTLP log export remains for base
and product analytics; log records now include trace_id, span_id, and
event_category where tracing is active.
Business spans and product metrics cover invoices, timers, reports, auth,
webhook delivery, and scheduled jobs. RED-style HTTP metrics are recorded in
after_request alongside existing Prometheus counters. ENABLE_TRACING and
ENABLE_METRICS default on when credentials exist; graceful no-op when they do not.
Privacy is preserved: user_id appears on traces only when detailed analytics is
opted in; metrics never carry user_id; _remove_pii behavior for analytics is
unchanged. Responses inject traceparent when tracing is enabled for future
browser correlation.
Tests: test_otel_integration.py and per-test reset_for_testing() in conftest
so each app factory can reinitialize OTel.
- Allow schedule edits (project, task, start/end, break) for users with
edit_own_time_entries on their own entries in API update_entry and
timer edit; scope project lists for subcontractors; admin-only source
dropdown on edit timer form.
- App shell: min-width/overflow fixes, header layout, compact bottom nav
on very narrow viewports (#573), dashboard timer block responsive layout.
- Invoice and quote edit: min-w-0 on grids/cells; scoped stronger neutral
borders for .form-input on #editInvoiceForm and #quote-form (#574).
- Webhook models: remove duplicate index definitions so db.create_all()
no longer raises 'index already exists' (columns already have index=True)
- ImportService: fix circular import by late-importing ClientService,
ProjectService, TimeTrackingService in __init__
- reports: fix F823 by renaming unpack variable _ to _entry_count to avoid
shadowing gettext _ in export_task_excel()
- Code quality: add .flake8 with extend-ignore so flake8 CI passes;
simplify pyproject.toml isort config (drop unsupported options)
- Format: run black and isort on app/
- tests: restore minimal app fixture in test_import_export_models
- Add RecurringInvoiceRepository and RecurringInvoiceService; refactor recurring_invoice model
- Add GanttService and move gantt logic from route to service
- Expand ReportingService and simplify reports route
- Add license_utils and user license template/settings
- Refactor routes to use scope_filter, api_responses, and services (API v1, timer, admin, invoices, etc.)
- Extend invoice_service for recurring; cache and scope_filter utils; base/template updates
The timer blueprint had two view functions named resume_timer, both
registering as endpoint 'timer.resume_timer' and causing Flask to raise
AssertionError on app load.
- Give the 'resume by id' route a unique endpoint: resume_timer_by_id
- Rename the view for GET /timer/resume/<timer_id> to resume_timer_by_id
- Update templates to use timer.resume_timer_by_id for links with timer_id
- Keep timer.resume_timer for POST (resume current paused timer)
- Enforce scope in timer routes: start_timer (POST), start_timer_for_project (GET),
and start_timer_from_template; deny with flash+redirect when project/client not allowed
- Add user_can_access_project check in api_start_timer (legacy API), API v1 timer/start,
and kiosk start-timer; return 403 with clear error message
- Scope dashboard Start Timer modal: load active_projects and active_clients via
apply_project_scope_to_model/apply_client_scope_to_model so subcontractors only see
assigned options
- Document timer start scope in SUBCONTRACTOR_ROLE.md (web, API, kiosk, 403/redirect)
Dashboard:
- Add time-by-project chart (last 7 days) with Chart.js horizontal bar; link to Summary report
Summary report:
- Add time-by-project (last 30d) bar chart and daily trend (14d) line chart
- Add one-page PDF export (today/week/month hours + top projects table)
Post-timer flow:
- After stop, show toast "Logged Xh on [Project]" with action link "View time entries"
- Toast manager: optional actionLink/actionLabel for action links in toasts
- Session carries timer_stopped_toast to dashboard; no duplicate flash
Remind to log:
- User setting "Remind me to log time at end of day" + time picker (Settings)
- Hourly job: send one email per day if user has <0.5h logged that day (user TZ)
- Migration 135: notification_remind_to_log, reminder_to_log_time on users
- Add Pause and Stop buttons when a timer is running; Pause saves the
segment so users can resume later without losing context.
- When no timer is active, show prominent 'Resume (project name)' to
restart with the same project/task/notes as the last entry.
- Add quick time adjustment (-15 / -5 / +5 / +15 min) for the active
timer via POST /timer/adjust (delta_minutes); limits ±4 hours.
- Update CHANGELOG, in-app Help, GETTING_STARTED, and FEATURES_COMPLETE
to document the new dashboard timer behavior.
- Add user_clients table and UserClient model for many-to-many user-client assignment
- Add 'subcontractor' system role; users with this role see only assigned clients and their projects
- User helpers: is_scope_restricted, get_allowed_client_ids(), get_allowed_project_ids()
- Admin user form: assign clients when role is Subcontractor (multi-select, JS toggle)
- Scope filtering: clients, projects, time entries, reports, invoices, timer, API v1
- Direct access to out-of-scope client/project returns 403 (web and API)
- Migration 127_add_user_clients_table; scope_filter utility and ProjectService scope_client_ids
- Docs: SUBCONTRACTOR_ROLE.md, ADVANCED_PERMISSIONS.md, RBAC, CLIENT_PORTAL, README, CHANGELOG
Addresses GitHub Discussion #476 (user with limited clients/projects).
- Fix Expense.date -> expense_date in custom_report_service, QuickBooks, Xero
- Report Builder: add expenses and invoices data sources in generate_report_data()
- Export Report button: require date range and show alert when missing
- Quick Actions: both CSV and Excel open export form (format selector on form)
- Finance & Reports: standardize date inputs (form-input on expenses list/dashboard)
- Use Project.client_obj in joinedload (fixes loader strategy error on export).
- Null-safe user/project/client in CSV rows; client column uses Project.client.
- Try/except and logger.exception in both CSV routes; SQLAlchemy handler
logs full traceback and writes to stderr for Docker logs.

Replace the bare data table with a full report layout: titled header with date range and active filters, entries grouped by date with sub-headers, optimized 8-column layout (merged start/end into time range, removed redundant date and source columns, split client into its own column), HH:MM duration format, word-wrapping notes via Paragraph objects, summary totals bar with entry count and billable hours, and page numbers. Pass filter metadata from the export route to the PDF builder.
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Replace WeasyPrint HTML-to-PDF (full page) with a dedicated ReportLab generator that outputs only a table of time entry data.
- Add app/utils/time_entries_pdf.py: A4 landscape, compact table (Date, User, Project, Task, Start, End, Duration, Notes, Tags, Billable, Source), plain-string cells and per-page tables to avoid ReportLab table-split height bug.
- Update timer export route to use build_time_entries_pdf(); remove WeasyPrint and time_entries_export_pdf.html usage for this export.
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
- Keep date/time fields always editable when duration (HH:MM) is entered
- Backend: when duration and start date+time are provided, use
end = start + duration instead of requiring full start/end or duration-only
- Update help text to explain duration can be used with a specific date

- Add settings.locked_client_id and admin UI to select locked client
- Allow disabling Clients for non-admins while keeping admin access
- Gate Clients UI routes and API endpoints when module is disabled
- Auto-select and enforce the locked client across filters and form submissions
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
When a single-client team has only one active client, pre-fill and disable
the client selection across manual time logging, project creation, and
similar forms to reduce friction.
- Add reusable client_select macro for single vs multi-client rendering
- Pass only_one_client and single_client to all relevant forms
- Invalidate dashboard cache on client create/archive/activate/delete
- Restore single client when project selection is cleared (timer forms)
- Add tests for single-client manual entry form
Manual time entries were interpreted in the application timezone instead of the user's timezone, so users in a different timezone (e.g. GMT+1) saw times adjusted to the server timezone (e.g. GMT+0) on the calendar.
- Add parse_user_local_datetime() in timezone utils to parse form date/time as the user's local time and return naive datetime in app timezone for storage.
- Use parse_user_local_datetime() in the manual entry form so submitted times are stored correctly and display at the right slot in the calendar.
Calendar events and drag-created entries were already correct; only the manual entry form path is changed. Other callers of parse_local_datetime are unchanged.
- Parse project_id, client_id, task_id, template_id safely in timer.start_timer to avoid 500 when form sends empty strings.
- Sync Toast UI Editor notes into hidden textarea before programmatic submit so notes are included in the POST.
- Add inline onclick on Start Timer button so the modal opens regardless of script load order or DOMContentLoaded.
- Keep script-based close and form handling; add direct click binding, modal content stopPropagation, and aria-hidden for robustness.
The Recent Activity widget was only showing deleted time entries because Activity.log was not being called when entries were created or updated. This commit adds Activity.log calls for 'created' and 'updated' actions across all time entry creation and update endpoints.
Changes:
- Add Activity.log for 'created' action in timer.py (manual entry creation)
- Add Activity.log for 'created' action in api.py (API entry creation)
- Add Activity.log for 'created' action in api_v1.py (API v1 entry creation)
- Add Activity.log for 'updated' action in api_v1.py (API v1 entry update)
- Add Activity.log for 'updated' action in api.py (API entry update)
- Add Activity.log for 'updated' action in timer.py (timer edit route)
All Activity.log calls follow the same pattern as existing 'deleted' and 'stopped' actions, including proper entity_name formatting, descriptive messages, extra_data with project/client/task information, and IP/user agent tracking.
Add comprehensive audit logging for TimeEntry operations including:
- Client/project context and creation timestamps
- Full entity state before/after changes
- User-provided reasons for deletions and modifications
- Enhanced UI for entering reasons in delete/edit dialogs
Database Changes:
- Add migration 114: reason, entity_metadata, full_old_state, full_new_state columns
- Use JSON column type for entity_metadata for better type handling
Model Updates:
- Extend AuditLog model with new fields and helper methods
- Update log_change() to accept reason, metadata, and full states
- Add get_entity_metadata(), get_full_old_state(), get_full_new_state() methods
- Use JSON column for entity_metadata (returns dict/list directly)
Service Layer:
- Update TimeTrackingService to capture full TimeEntry state and metadata
- Accept reason parameter in delete_entry() and update_entry()
- Create comprehensive audit logs with all context
API Routes:
- Update api.py, api_v1.py, and timer.py routes to accept reason parameter
- Refactor routes to use service layer for consistent audit logging
- Add reason support to bulk delete operations
UI Enhancements:
- Add reason textarea to bulk delete confirmation dialog
- Add reason textarea to time entry edit forms (admin and regular users)
- Update JavaScript to handle reason submission
Audit Log Display:
- Show client/project information and creation timestamp in list view
- Display full old/new states, reason, and metadata in detail view
- Format JSON states for better readability
Bug Fixes:
- Fix duration_seconds reference in timer stop route
- Improve error handling in timer operations with proper exception handling
- Add dashboard cache invalidation after manual entry creation
Pagination used url_for(..., **filters) which included:
- client_custom_field (a dict): URL encoding cannot handle dict values
- page: overwrote the explicit page param in Prev/Next links
Introduce url_filters: exclude client_custom_field and page, expand
client_custom_field into custom_field_<key> query params. Use url_filters
in _time_entries_list.html for all pagination url_for calls.
Add new client portal pages (dashboard, approvals, notifications, documents, reports) and extend API/routes/services to support client approvals, invoices/quotes views, and related notifications.
Update email templates and docs; add/adjust tests for new models/routes.
- Add cache invalidation to update_entry API endpoint
- Add cache invalidation to edit_timer route
- Add cache invalidation to delete_entry API endpoint
- Add cache invalidation to delete_timer route
- Add cache invalidation to create_entry API endpoint
The dashboard caches data for 5 minutes, but the cache was not being
invalidated when time entries were modified. This caused the 'Recent
Entries' table to show stale duration values until the cache expired
or the browser tab was refreshed.
Now the dashboard cache is immediately invalidated whenever a time
entry is created, updated, or deleted, ensuring users see the latest
data without waiting for cache expiration.
This commit introduces two major features:
1. Project Custom Fields: Add custom_fields JSON column to projects table (migration 085), support for flexible custom data storage, display and edit in project views
2. File Attachments System: Add project_attachments and client_attachments tables (migration 086), new ProjectAttachment and ClientAttachment models, full CRUD operations, file upload/download/delete, client-visible attachments support
Additional improvements: Enhanced data tables, updated project/client/invoice/timer views, improved UI for attachments and custom fields management
This commit includes multiple performance optimizations, error handling
improvements, and bug fixes across the application.
Performance Improvements:

- PostgreSQL: Use efficient JSONB operators for database-level filtering
- SQLite: Fallback to Python-based filtering after initial query
- Both approaches ensure accurate results across database backends
This enhancement allows users to filter and search by custom field values,
making it easier to distinguish between clients with identical names but
different identifiers (e.g., debtor numbers, ERP IDs).
