🚦 New Project Automation Setting: Auto-Close Stages When Milestones Are Done

We’ve added a smart new automation to Flowlu Projects that helps you keep your stages tidy.

You can now automatically close a project stage when all milestones within it are completed. It’s a simple way to keep your projects flowing and your workspace clear.

Here’s how it works:

Once all milestones inside a stage are marked as complete, the stage will auto-close.

If someone reopens a milestone from that closed stage later, the project won’t move backward. The closed stage stays closed. (If you do want to roll it back, you can do that manually.)

Where to Set It Up

Go to Portal Settings → Projects → Main Settings and find the "Automatically progress a project to the next stage" section.

You’ll now see these updated options:

✅ All checklist items are completed

✅ All stage tasks are closed

✅ All milestones are completed ← (New!)

✋ Don’t move automatically (manual only)

Just pick your preferred option from the dropdown—done!

Tip: Want to auto-close milestones too? Set up task dependencies and use Gantt chart automation to close them once all preceding tasks are finished.

📊 New CRM Widget: Revenue by Opportunity Source

You can now instantly spot which marketing channels are bringing in the most revenue—with zero spreadsheet digging.

The new Revenue by Source widget gives you a clear visual breakdown of your opportunity performance by channel. At a glance, see:

  • Total number of opportunity sources in your CRM
  • Total revenue across all sources
  • Opportunity count per source
  • Revenue per source
  • Share of total revenue per channel

Available as both a pie chart and sortable table (by amount or opportunity count), it makes identifying your best-performing sources simple. Use filters to focus on the data that matters most to you.

You’ll be able to quickly understand which channels are working—and which aren’t. That means smarter budget decisions and more efficient resource allocation.

👉 This widget is available on Team plans and higher.

OneDrive Integration, Smarter Absences, Project Insights, and More

Here’s a quick look at what’s improved and what’s brand new in Flowlu.  

📎 Attach Files Straight From OneDrive

You can now attach files directly from your OneDrive account to tasks, projects, contacts, and more in Flowlu. You can either link to the file without using your Flowlu storage or save a local copy, which will count toward your storage limit. 

👀 Absences Are Now Instantly Visible

Sick day? On vacation? Now it’s obvious. You’ll see a small icon next to a person’s avatar when they’re on leave—whether they’re online or not. No need to dig into the “Leaves & Absences” module anymore to figure out who's around.

🧩 Projects Widget

There’s a new “Projects” widget on your dashboard. It gives you a quick snapshot of everything that matters: project name, who’s managing it, which stage it’s in, how many tasks are done (and how many are left), who the client is, and how close—or overdue—the deadline is. You can also filter the view to show only the projects you actually want to keep an eye on. No need to jump between tabs to figure out what’s going on.

📩 A Smarter Way to Invite Teammates

Bringing someone new into Flowlu just got a whole lot easier. The invitation form now lets you fill in everything at once—name, job title, password, and even fine-tune their access to each module right from the start. No more juggling roles or tweaking permissions afterward. 

📱 Mobile App Improvements (iOS & Android)

We’ve made things snappier and easier to use across both apps. Expect smoother navigation and fewer hiccups.

The mobile CRM dashboard now includes three new widgets to help you track performance at a glance—see why deals are lost, check your sales conversion rate, and understand how leads move through your pipeline.

You can also add Agile Project and Invoice creation forms to the bottom menu for quicker access, or find them in the Quick Actions menu under Modules.

📁 Project Statistics

You can now track key project data at a glance — no need to open the full Projects module.

The widget displays the number of active projects, profitability, incoming payments, expenses.

There are also ready-to-use presets to save time:

  • Active Projects
