Time Recording

Record hours and minutes against project stages and review your time logs.

Last checked 10 November 2026

Time recordings store the date, project, stage and time worked. They support time reports; adding a time log does not itself complete a stage or invoice the client.

Add a time recording

  1. Click your name in the sidebar, choose the stopwatch icon labelled Time recordings, then click the plus button labelled Add Time.
  2. Check Date. It initially uses today, so change it if you are recording earlier work.
  3. Select Project, then Project Stage. Wait for the stages to load after choosing a project.
  4. Enter Hours/Minutes using whole numbers. For example, record one and a half hours as 1 hour and 30 minutes, not 1.5 hours. Minutes must be no more than 59.
  5. Click Add Time Log.

The project dashboard also offers a shortcut from Hours Spent in the ongoing-projects table. Check the selected project and stage even when opening the form from a shortcut. A log is recorded for the signed-in user.

Review or correct a log

Open your user menu and choose the stopwatch icon to view your recordings. Click a recording's date to open its details. Correct its date, project, stage or time and save, or use the delete control when the entry should be removed. A correction replaces that recording; adding another log creates additional time.

If a project or its stages are unavailable, check whether the project has been archived and whether the work is assigned appropriately. Archived project time records are read-only until the project is unarchived.

You can also record optional time while completing a workflow item. That route creates a separate log for today and completes the stage, so avoid entering the same time twice. See Workflows.

Use User Time Recording Report for dated entries or Time Recording Report to compare recorded time with quoted hours.
