I second the celebration for the switch from "Jobs" to "Projects"

WRT tooltips on table fields: yes, this will surface in 2024w1. Why was it not in the release plan? At the time of the public release of the release plan, we were not sure if this would make into the 2024w1 scope, so I decided not to put it in the note (yet). This is always a balance: should we add features to the release plan for visibility (create excitement) and then remove them if capacity on dev teams change (disappoint)?

For the PMs in the product group, the release plan is a huge marketing moment, so we are not normally deliberately postponing information until conferences or the launch event.

Renaming Jobs to Projects and then giving it some extra love is very exciting for me. I hope they start making it work better with the Fixed Assets module.

Jobs / Projects - not much used, but so much potential. I have built lots of functionality around it to turn it into a real project management / issue management tool for professional services companies (like BC partners). Glad to hear it is getting some love!

Thank you for the informative video! This makes learning all the new functionality a lot more interesting.

That Jobs thing was probably a faulty translation from Danish into English. In German it always was "Projekte". Danish it is called something similar.

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 I always wondered why it was called jobs, the french translation is Projet for Project.
