Build 49 contains a number of important functionality improvements. However a main distinction between the build 49 and previous releases is a new screen forms displaying a history of relations with each customer company and a history of each project.

History records include a lot of project-related data like the start and the end of each task development, changes in documents, project status changes and much more. System automatically records various project events, for example, when user enters new bug report or changes tasks status from 'In Progress' to 'Completed'. In addition each user having corresponding rights may add his notes to the history thus registering in the sequence of history records any off-line events like a telephone conversations, meetings or financial activities. Optionally each user's note may be marked as 'private', in this case it is visible only for the user who had entered it, otherwise a note is 'shared' that is visible to all members of a project team.

All history pages are supported with powerful and flexible filter form giving a chance to select only necessary history records for the display.
