⬜ Intro
Phases can be interacted with in 3 ways:
Phase Listing Icons - When viewing a work list, learn more about each phase at a glance by looking at the icons at the right of each listing.
Swiping Left on a Phase - Provides quick access to commonly used features (e.g., entering time worked on a phase). All of these features are also available in the Phase Details.
Phase Details - The full details of each phase. Phase Listing Icons mostly signal what can be found here, and Swiping Left on a Phase provides quick access to just a few features that are also available here.
First, we’ll go over the Phase Listing Icons and what each one means.
