We’re pleased to announce that Quick Timesheets now supports Atlassian Crowd, a Single Sign-On service from Atlassian.

Crowd provides OpenID authentication to allow web applications to perform single sign on (SSO) against a central authentication authority, such as LDAP or Microsoft Active Directory.  This means that you can use Crowd to allow your users to sign in to Quick Timesheets using their Microsoft AD credentials.

To enable crowd support, simply go to ‘Settings’ -> ‘Authentication’ and enable the ‘Crowd’ option. You will need to provide the URL of your Crowd Server. Once enabled, you can sign in using your Crowd credentials.
