Back dated check-ins
Users can now choose a date in the past for their check-ins.
Many times, due to external circumstances, users cannot provide check-in on a given date as the metric value as of date is not known. By the time they receive the data, verify and update it, it might take a couple of days which hampers them from recording the correct progress. Especially on the business side, where things are tracked monthly, this can become a big challenge if updates are not made on time in the tool which acts as a source of truth for an entire organization.
With back-dated check-ins, the user can now provide check-ins for a past date. This gives flexibility to business teams to have the right record on 10xGoals.
Back dated check-ins are to be used only for cases where the actual metric value is not known or the check-in was not possible on a given day due to any external circumstances.
