Time tracking calendar

Explore enhanced time tracking capabilities, including drag-and-drop functionality, resizing options, and timesheet entry management in the Tracking Calendar.

The dynamic calendar view that transforms Time tracking, allowing users to manage, create, and distinguish tasks with drag-and-drop functionality and vibrant, colorful visuals for a more intuitive and organized user experience.

In the calendar view, color boxes represent Detailed Time tracking entries, enabling users to easily identify entries belonging to the same Time tracking entry by sharing identical colors. This visual distinction enhances organization and clarity.

To create time tracking

  1. Choose 🔎 icon, enter Time tracking calendar, and then choose the related link.
  2. Doble click on the empty cell or right-click on the empty cell and then choose option Insert from the menu.
  3. Update the Time tracking card with any modifications that may be needed.
  4. Click OK button.

Within the calendar view, you can adjust the duration of your Detailed Time tracking entries. Resize with ease, extending or shortening your tasks to better align with your dynamic schedule. Running entries are now clearly distinguished with a red shadow, reducing confusion during manipulation.

For users requiring precise adjustments, the Time scale settings can help. This setting empowers to expand or decrease time periods by increments smaller or bigger than the default, allowing for meticulous control over your schedule.

Working hours representation in the calendar

Working hours representation involves highlighting working hours based on individual norms, rather than a fixed schedule. Days with exceptions to the norm adjust accordingly: no hours when set to zero, and regular hours otherwise. More about setting norm times read here.

Time Entries in the date header

Within the calendar interface, untracked Time entries originating from the timesheet are visibly organized under the corresponding date header. These entries lack associated Time tracking entries and therefore have no start and end time. Users can change this by drag-and-drop functionality to position them precisely within the desired timeframe. Upon relocation, the system seamlessly generates a Time tracking entry for the specific time segment. Consequently, users can effectively commence tracking time for these entries.

Create/Update Time entries

Additionally, you can create and update Time entries in the timesheet directly from the calendar, just as you would in the Time tracking entries page. More about it read here.

Cerate Time Entry Indicators

In the right bottom corner you can see color indicators. Three colors are possible to have: green, yellow and white. The system uses color-coded indicators to reflect the status of time entries: Green 🟢 indicates that a time entry is connected to the time tracking entry and all fields (Date, Project, Task, Work Type, Customer) are matched and updated; Yellow 🟡 indicates that a time entry is connected but there are discrepancies between the fields; and Empty 🔘 indicates that there is no time entry connected to the time tracking entry.

Time tracking totals

When looking at a period of time tracking it can be hard to see what all the entries sum up to and how that aligns with the expected working time.

The Time tracking totals factbox shows summary information about the period in view:

  • Total tracked - the total time tracked for the period.
  • Total tracked (rounded) - the total time tracked for the period rounded according to the rounding rules.
  • Tracked on Time entry - the total time tracked for the period for entries connected to a time entry on the timesheet.
  • Tracked not on Time entry - the total time tracked for the period for entries not connected to a time entry on the timesheet.
  • Time entries - the total quantity on time entries for the period, including timesheet entries created manually.
  • Norm time - the number of hours of expected work for the period.
