Manage time entries on a task

Previously, the time you logged on a task only showed up in the project timesheet, and if you accidentally left a timer running, there was no way to remove it. Now you can do all of this from the task itself.

Open the time panel

On the task, click the time icon (or the total logged time). A panel opens with two tabs: Manual entry and the list of time entries. On mobile, the same panel slides up from the bottom of the screen.

The list of time entries

• Each row shows who worked on this task, when, and for how long.
• The list scrolls, so even busy tasks are easy to review.
• The delete button next to each row removes that entry, and the total updates immediately.

Deleting can't be undone. If you delete a row by mistake, you'll need to log it again manually.

Log time manually

The Manual entry tab is for when you forgot to start the timer or did the work somewhere else. Enter the duration, the date, and a short description, then click Log.

The total is always right

The total time shown on the task updates immediately after you stop the timer, log time manually, or delete a row, even if you stopped the timer from the top bar or a coworker logs time from another device.

A few common situations

• You left the timer running overnight: stop the timer, delete the long, wrong row from the list, and log the actual duration manually.
• You logged time on the wrong task: delete the row from the wrong task and log the same duration on the right one.
• You did the work outside the system: enter a meeting held outside the office with the Manual entry tab and that day's date.
• You want to know how much time this work took: the total at the top of the panel is always the sum of every row from every member.

A fuller view in the project timesheet

To see all the time logged in a project, go to the project timesheet. There you can expand any task to show its time rows, and open the task itself in the details window with one click.

Frequently asked questions

• Can I delete a coworker's time entry? That depends on your permission level in the project. Regular members manage only their own entries.
• Does deleting time affect reports? Yes. The project's time reports are recalculated immediately without that row.
• I forgot to stop the timer. What should I do? Stop the timer, delete the wrong row from the list, and log the correct duration manually.
• Are the same features available on mobile? Yes. The only difference is that the panel slides up from the bottom of the screen instead of opening as a floating window.
• Can I write a description for logged time? Yes. When you log time manually, write a short description so you'll know later what those hours were spent on.
• Does logged time show up in reports and client invoices? Yes. The project's time reports are built from these same rows.
