Fix: Tasks And Files Stayed Filtered To One Employee

Details

If you opened an employee and then went to your calendar or your task board, you were still looking at just that one employee, without much telling you so. Add a task for yourself there and it saved correctly, but the page in front of you filtered it straight back out. It looked like the task was lost. Those four pages now always open across your whole company, so you see everything before you narrow anything. You can still switch to a single team or employee whenever you want: the switcher at the top of the page does it in one click, and that narrowing is now something you chose rather than something you inherited from whichever page you happened to come from. And if you add a task on one employee's board but give it to somebody else, we now tell you who has it and where to find it, instead of letting it save correctly and then disappear from the view you are standing in. The rule behind the fix is worth stating: a filter you did not set should never be the reason something looks missing. Work that saved and then vanished is worse than work that failed to save, because you go looking for a bug in the wrong place.
