Track Task Progress with Pronnel's Item Activity

What is Item Activity?

Item Activity in Pronnel functions as a chronological audit log. It captures every interaction with a task: whether it's updating the status, assigning team members, commenting, uploading files, or setting deadlines. Every entry is automatically timestamped and linked to the user who performed the action.

This feature ensures transparency across your team and is especially useful in environments where tracking changes is essential for audits, reporting, or project retrospectives.

Benefits of Using Item Activity

• Time-Based Tracking: All updates are recorded in sequence, helping teams see how a task has evolved.
• Future Activities on Top: Scheduled meetings, deadlines, and upcoming subtasks appear first so that no one misses what's next.
• Create Activities in Context: Quickly log new tasks, meetings, messages, or custom events right inside the feed.
• Boost Team Accountability: Always know who made a change and when.
• Workflow Clarity: Quickly understand project history without relying on scattered messages or emails.
