What is SmartSuite?
SmartSuite adds tracked changes to SmartDocs, so policy edits need an approver.
SmartSuite is a no-code work management platform adding governance and developer surfaces. SmartDoc fields can now turn on Change Tracking: every edit, including writes from forms, imports, the API and automations, becomes a suggestion that named approvers accept or reject, with inline redlining and a three-year decision trail. It follows linked-record defaults, Service Accounts, Azure gateway support, the Script Engine and Managed Secrets.
What is My Hours?
My Hours 10.3 makes invoice dates editable and lets invoices carry a Detailed report.
10.3 makes the issue date editable on draft invoices, adds account and per-client default due dates, and lets users edit the email subject, preview the email and attach a Detailed report when sending. Daily Track gets a cleaner layout and filters get a redesign. It follows 10.2's lifetime project profitability, 10.1's audit log and 10.0's timesheet periods and locking.
SmartSuite vs My Hours: editorial side-by-side
SmartSuite adds tracked changes to SmartDocs, so policy edits need an approver.
◆ Current state
SmartSuite is a no-code work management platform adding governance and developer surfaces. SmartDoc fields can now turn on Change Tracking: every edit, including writes from forms, imports, the API and automations, becomes a suggestion that named approvers accept or reject, with inline redlining and a three-year decision trail. It follows linked-record defaults, Service Accounts, Azure gateway support, the Script Engine and Managed Secrets.
◆ Where it's heading
October built the developer stack (secrets, scripts, service accounts); November is about controlled data: records that arrive already linked, and documents that cannot change without review. Both point at regulated teams that need audit trails inside the tool they already use for workflows.
◆ Prediction
Expect approval and audit controls to spread from SmartDocs to other field types or record-level changes, given that tracked changes already capture API and automation writes.
My Hours
5.0PM
My Hours 10.3 makes invoice dates editable and lets invoices carry a Detailed report.
◆ Current state
10.3 makes the issue date editable on draft invoices, adds account and per-client default due dates, and lets users edit the email subject, preview the email and attach a Detailed report when sending. Daily Track gets a cleaner layout and filters get a redesign. It follows 10.2's lifetime project profitability, 10.1's audit log and 10.0's timesheet periods and locking.
◆ Where it's heading
My Hours keeps shipping every one to three weeks, and the work is concentrated on the billing end: invoices, profitability and approval controls. It is moving from a time tracker toward the system agencies use to bill clients.
◆ Prediction
Expect more invoicing controls, such as recurring invoices or payment tracking, given four straight releases touching billing. The September MCP server has had no follow-up in these entries.
