Log time

  1. Click Log time: in Time, on a project’s Time tab, in a task under Time, or in My work.
  2. In How to enter the time, choose:
    • Duration: type it as 1:30, 1.5 or 90m. 24 hours at most.
    • From – To: the time you started and the time you finished.
  3. Choose the Day.
  4. Choose the Project and, if you want, one of its open tasks. No project is for work outside any project.
  5. Choose the Job type: the kind of work. A task’s job type is chosen for you.
  6. Set Billable: whether the customer pays for this time. See Billable time, hourly rates and budget.
  7. Add a Note if you want, then click Save.

Opened from a project or a task, the window already has them filled in.

Log time for someone else

The Business owner, and a Member with Timesheets set to Edit, see a Person field. Once a project is chosen, it offers the project’s members.

Where time can be logged

  • Only a project’s members log time on it.
  • A project whose time tracking is off takes no new time. See Create a project.
  • A template takes no time.
  • A day that is submitted or approved is locked: its time can’t be added, changed or deleted.

Change or delete an entry

In Time, or on the project’s Time tab, click the actions button (⋮) on the entry:

  • Edit opens the same window. Change what you need and save.
  • Delete removes the entry for good, after asking.

An entry marked Locked belongs to a submitted or approved day and can’t change.

Common questions

Can I log time without a project?

Yes. Choose No project. The time counts as working time but is never billable.

Why isn't a project in the list?

You are not one of its members, its time tracking is off, or it is a template.

Where does my time go?

To your time entries in Time. An employee’s time also goes to their timesheet, where they send it for approval. See What employees see in Projects.
