This help article outlines two simple methods to enter time: using Timecards or the Time Center. Both methods offer ease of use and ensure accurate time tracking for your projects. Below are step-by-step instructions for each approach.
Two ways to enter time:
1. Through Timecards (Recommended)
Dashboard > Select a Project > Timecards
To enter time through timecards, you must have "Manage" permission for "Timecards".
From the Dashboard, navigate to the "Select a Project" option.
Choose the desired project for which you want to enter the time.
After selecting the project, click on the "Timecards" section.
Within the "Timecards" section, click the "Add Time" button.
Note: Ensure that you are on the "People" tab.
Filling out Time Entry:
The "Add Entry" page will appear. Here, you can provide the required information for the time entry.
Enter the duration of the work completed.
Select the relevant users who have worked on the project during the specified time.
Add any additional details related to the work, if necessary.
Once you have filled out the required information, click the "Save & Close" button to save the time entry.
Note:
