Material Resource Usage Reports
A new feature developed - material resource usage reporting.
Declared material resource usage is approved the same way as man hours are - by Review or from the context menu.
Material resource usage hours are calculated separately and independently from users' man hours.
Material resource usage time can be rated (Administrator -> Salary) and included in stats reports.
Advanced Copying Features
First, a copied (duplicated) task preserves all the links between its sub-tasks.
Second, now a copied task can be pasted in two different ways: ordinary Paste (Ctrl+v) and Special Paste (Ctrl+Shift+v).
Ordinary Paste pastes:
tasks (without attached files)
sub-tasks
links between sub-tasks
tags
assigned human and material resources
Special Paste calls a dialog window where you can choose additional content to paste.
New Task Linking Mode
Now tasks can be linked in Navigator panel. Two new menu items added: "Select task(s) to link" (Ctrl+k) and "Link selected tasks" (Ctrl+l).
