How do I track time on a task?

Open the task and go to the Time tab. Either start the timer while you work, or log time manually with Add Time Log.

Steps

Using the timer: 1. Open the task and click the Time tab. 2. In the Start Timer card, click the green play button. 3. When you’re done, click the stop button. The time is saved as a time log.

Logging time manually: 1. On the Time tab, find Log Time Manually. 2. Pick the Date, then enter Hours and Minutes. 3. Optionally describe the work (“What did you work on?”). 4. Leave Billable hours ticked if the time should be billed, or untick it. 5. Click Add Time Log.

Good to know

  • The timer keeps running even if you close the page. Come back to the task to stop it.
  • You can have one timer running per task.
  • Timer entries are counted as billable. Manual entries follow the Billable hours checkbox.
  • The cards at the top show Total Time Spent, Estimated Time and Remaining, plus whether you’re On Track or Over Budget compared with the task’s time estimate.
  • If you enter no duration you’ll see “Please enter a duration.”
  • Logged time appears in the project’s Timesheets tab and in the task’s activity history.
