Quotas Redesign

[Nik]

I am posting this in search for feedback with regards to Quotas plugin redesign.

Several ideas are currently considered. Whether or not we'll do it depends on our ability to find resources for this work.

- Create Holidays plugin - with yearly holidays configurable on group level.
- Yearly calculations and output of quota in addition to monthly quotas,
- Users to have an additional config option for % of available time quota. For example: a full time employee gets 100% of available workday time quota, while a part-time employee may get only 50%, etc.
- Fixed quotas per project - max total time (if defined).
- Monthly quotas on projects.
- Assigning employees to percent of quota available for projects (this could complicate things quite a bit).

The Quotas plugin is used to display the quotas but does not prohibit users to enter time above their quota, Question arises here whether we should make an option to display an "Over quota" error instead.

I added Quota Percent setup, calculation, and output in Time Tracker 1.18.36.4684. Also, a "Balance" reading, which is a partial quota from the 1st of the month up to the selected date in calendar.

Consider making a display of "Remaining balance" optional (and configurable) for users who do not need it.
