Bounteous OpenAir Helper is a Chrome extension developed by Bounteous Extension Developers. It aims to address some of the most annoying usability issues in OpenAir, a popular time tracking software used by Bounteous staff.

This extension offers several useful features to enhance the OpenAir experience. Firstly, it adds Bounteous Single Sign-On (SSO) to OpenAir's login page, simplifying the login process. Additionally, it adds a red background color to the Timesheet submission button on hover, providing a visual cue for users.

One of the frustrating aspects of OpenAir is that if users enter timesheet notes without first entering hours worked, the notes are deleted when the user clicks the "Save and Close" button. Bounteous OpenAir Helper solves this problem by hiding the "Save and Close" button until hours are entered.

Moreover, the extension includes a quick reference link to the "Where to log your time?" Confluence page, making it easier for users to find the right place to log their time. It also adds an OpenAir session countdown timer to the footer, ensuring users are aware of when their session is about to expire.

To prevent accidental weekend entries, Bounteous OpenAir Helper greys out the background on Saturdays and Sundays. Additionally, it adds celebratory confetti upon timesheet submission, adding a touch of fun to the process.

For split weeks, the extension blackouts dates where time entry is not allowed and provides a tooltip explanation, helping users navigate the system effectively. Lastly, it removes the Oracle branded footer, giving users an extra row of working space.

Overall, Bounteous OpenAir Helper is a valuable Chrome extension that addresses usability issues in OpenAir, making it easier for Bounteous staff to use the software effectively.
