ProWorkflow telegraphs a roadmap, not a release.

◆Current state
The recent feed isn't shipped features — it's a 'Fix the Chain' roadmap series posted in March–April 2026, restating a multi-year initiative to better connect the quote → project → invoice stages. Highlights: line items at the project level (so non-time materials have a home), part-invoicing improvements, recurring invoice flow, custom layouts, and gross-margin / cost visibility. The 2023-07-16 entry is the original 'From there to here' framing post being re-surfaced.
◆Where it's heading
ProWorkflow is in a re-explanation phase: telling existing customers what it intends to fix structurally, rather than announcing what it just shipped. The thesis — close the data gaps between quote/project/invoice so financial insight is end-to-end — is coherent but slow. There's a notable gap between the 2023 framing post and the 2026 follow-ups, suggesting the project moved slowly or the comms went quiet for a stretch.
◆Prediction
If 'Fix the Chain' is real, the next visible signal will be a line-items-on-projects feature actually shipping, followed by part-invoicing and recurring-invoice tooling. If those don't appear within the next 6 entries, the roadmap is likely outpacing engineering capacity and customers should expect more narrative than delivery.

    Roadmap recap: how customers use the quote → project → invoice flow

    Re-publish of the 'where we are now' diagram post explaining how customers move work through quote/project/invoice stages. Roadmap context-setting, not a release.

    Plan: line items on projects to carry materials through the chain

    Lays out the planned line-items-on-projects feature so non-time materials and quantity-based items can flow from quote → project → invoice. The most concrete 'Fix the Chain' commitment in this batch.

    “Fix the Chain” means – Better Profitability Insights

    Roadmap teaser around profitability insight: setting internal costs, knowing gross margins, identifying overruns. Direction announcement, not a feature shipped.

    Plan: part-invoicing, recurring invoices, custom layouts

    Plan to support part-invoicing accurately, recurring-invoice setup, and custom quote/invoice layouts. Bigger user-facing payoff than the line-items work but still framed as upcoming, not shipped.

    Original 2023 'From there to here' roadmap post

    The original July 2023 'From there to here' roadmap post — context for the recent re-publishes. The age gap between this and the 2026 follow-ups is itself the story.
