Be able to sort approval list by date and then name
On the approval dashboard, it would be nice to be able to sort the list by volunteer date and then name. It's too easy for volunteers to double enter hours. Having a way to see when they've entered the same hours, on the same day, for the same project helps us take a closer look. (Other idea, if there was a way to warn volunteers that they already have an entry on that day, for the same hours, under the same area/project, we would like that.)

Customize schedule for event reminders
For automated notifications, it would be useful to customize when event reminders are sent to volunteers. We require 72 hours notice for cancellations so we would like to email them 4 days prior to the event instead of 2 days

Provide an API to enable integration with other time tracking systems and/or a bulk upload
Volunteers in our group are using a variety of other time tracking systems and currently have to manually load their hours into TrackItForward.
An API and/or bulk upload capability would make this easier and therefore encourage volunteers to keep their hours up to date in TrackItForward2 votes -
Option for admins to receive a copy of emails sent
I'd like to receive a copy of emails that I send out through the Events and Volunteers section. This would make it easier to confirm delivery, keep accurate records, and re-use email content in the future.

Auto-assignation of shifts based on preferences and availability of volunteers.
This would be a combination of two features: the ability for volunteers to set their availability and event preferences, and the ability of the website to assign volunteers by maximizing preferences, and minimizing time conflicts.

Submitting hours for a volunteer
Currently, submitting hours for a volunteer must be done under the 'Overview' tab by selecting a volunteer from a drop down list.
It would be nice to be able to submit hours for a specific volunteer under their 'Timesheet' tab.

Create customized charts - based on needs of organization.
Create customized charts. During presentations, requesting grants and tracking how volunteer hours are spent - it is more eye catching to have pictiures along with words. Executives and persons who have stake in the organization would be more likely to see charts than read words.
I wanted a chart of time spent by volunteers per activity/per month1 vote -

I would like you to change the event organizer options to allow 2 or more event organizer for one event.
There have been many times where I create a signup for our class at school (I'm the parent coordinator for the class), and I would like to have the teacher and I both be event organizers so we can both edit and see who has signed up and keep track of messages and such. It would be nice to have that feature.

Not allow signing OFF of an event!
Not allowing volunteers to sign off of an event LESS THAN 24 HOURS PRIOR TO THE EVENT. If a volunteer tries to sign off they should be instructed to find a replacement or to contact the event coordinators.

Showing messages on events as comments for everyone to see, like on signup genius
On signup genius, when a person signs up, they can make a comment that shows to everyone who has the link to the signup. It is nice for instances where they need to let everyone know the specifics of what they're bringing. It would be a great feature to have on track it forward. When people send messages, it goes just to the organizer, and sometimes it would be very helpful if everyone on the signup could see.

Total hours divided by trimester
Our families have to complete a total of 45 hours but we split those hours by trimester (15 hours x 3). Not sure how to configure?

Milestone Completion Report
Looking for a report or export that shows when a volunteer completed the milestone and/or if they already received their reward.
I need an easy way to quickly see which volunteers already received their reward vs. which volunteers recently completed their hours. Due to the high volume of volunteers, I need this data as an export.

use pin codes for the kiosk
you just put in your pin number and it records you and the time you signed it and out. That would eliminate the need to search for your name or type it in.

Events - Add Location and Contact Person Fields OR Add Ability to Customize Form
Due to the way we utilize the events calendar, it would be very helpful if there were fields for Location and Contact Person; or the ability to customize the event form as needed. That way, we could easily use these columns to sort when exported. There is limited functionality with everything currently being lumped into the Event Description.
