Time settings and working hours

These settings are for admins who can manage time. Open Settings; they live under the Time group: Time tracking, Working hours and Entry fields.

Time tracking rules#

1. Open Settings, then Time tracking.
2. Choose the Default time zone. Days end at midnight in this zone, and entries that cross midnight are split.
3. Set the limits:
   • Longest entry (hours): timers stop automatically at this length. The default is 16.
   • Shortest entry (minutes): anything shorter is ignored. The default is 1.
   • Timer check-in (minutes) and Ask "Still working?" after (minutes): how the app notices a timer nobody is watching.
4. Optionally turn on Stop timers at the end of the working day. This needs working hours. Stopped entries are flagged auto-stopped.
5. Optionally turn on Allow overlapping entries. It is off by default, which blocks overlaps.
6. Press Save changes.

Working hours and holidays#

Working hours and holidays drive the Expected hours in reports.

1. Open Settings, then Working hours.
2. Choose Effective from, the Schedule time zone and fill in the Weekly schedule.
3. Press Save schedule. Earlier days keep the schedule that applied then.
4. Under Holidays & days off, add a date and a name. A holiday can apply to everyone or to one person.

Individual people can use their own time zone here too.

Entry fields#

Under Entry fields you add your own fields to time entries, such as a billable flag or activity type, and then report on them by custom field.
