Duration as a field in Table View
new
With this update, we've added Duration as a possible field column in Table View. This will allow teams to see the full duration (in days) of an action from Table View, neatly calculated, without having to toggle back to Gantt view.
To access the Duration field, navigate to your Table View and click on the three More Dots on the right side of any column's header. From there, you'll be able to select which Columns you want to enable.

Once duration is selected, a calculated Duration field (in days) will be added to your Table View.

Public share link for Notes
new
If you're getting ready for a meeting with external collaborators, or want to share information with people outside of the Hive universe, this new functionality will be extremely helpful.
To share your Note, click on the blue "Share" button in the upper right hand corner of your Note.

Once you click on this button, there are now Notes URL share links that can be set to Restricted or General Access, which you can find in the "General Access" section of the Note sharing hub.

If you select "Anyone with the link," the Note will be able to be shared publicly (outside of the Hive world).

Quick-schedule meeting from actions
new
With this new feature, we've enhanced the calendar and task integration between Hive and your teammates calendars, making it easier than ever to collaborate on tasks.
Within an action card, you'll now be able to quick-add a meeting (from the card) to triage the pending item. Note: all team members will have to have their Hive Mail synced with Hive for this feature to be enabled.
To schedule a meeting, select "Schedule time" under "Date."

The pop-out will then show the full calendar availability of each team member you add - making it easier than ever before to schedule time for meetings, check-ins and more.

Once you select the time slot that works for your team, you can schedule the meeting by double-clicking on the ideal block.

The meeting will then quick-sync to your calendar and be named in accordance with that action card.
Deletion warning pop-up
new
For this update, we've added a pop-up to notify teams when they've deleted an action, comment, and more across Hive. This will alert teams to accidental deletion, and provide a quick Undo button to help recover anything that is not supposed to be deleted.
To Undo the action, just click the blue button. To remove this pop-up, click on the X in the upper right-hand corner.

Filter by description column
new
With this new release, users will be able to filter by action card description in Table View. This will allow teams to quickly find action cards by description content without having to click into each individual action card.
The description filter will be identical to the filter mechanisms in other rows across Table View.

Linked projects are now clickable
new
With this update, we've made all Linked Projects clickable in any action card. This will help teams navigate to relevant projects more easily, and prevent extra context switching in and out of tasks.

Once a project has been linked to a card, you'll be able to click right on the project under "Link to projects" - this will take you to the project.

Decimals now included in bill rates
new
With this update, we've added the ability to add decimal places (to the hundredth) in
bill rates
. This will help teams maintain accuracy for budgeting, billing, and resourcing.
To get started with bill rates, you'll first need to turn on Resourcing and Timesheets in Hive Apps.
Bill rates will be entered for each individual (so you can accurately track budget and time spent across a project). You can do this from the Resourcing tab, by clicking on each person's name to open their profile. Bill rate is at the bottom as shown here under "Financial information":

'Approve with changes' in Proofing
new
With this update, we've released the ability to approve a Proof with a contingency - that all requested changes have been made. This will help teams expedite their proofing/approvals workflow by issuing an approval once feedback has been addressed (instead of having to start another approval round).
To access this option, utilize proofing and approvals as you normally would. From the approval dropdown, you'll see 'Approve with changes,' which you can use to denote this approval.
