Before you start

  • A project must have the Time feature turned on before the project's members can track time for the project and its tasks.
  • All of your logged time is pulled into your timesheet, regardless of how it was logged (ex. using a timer, via the mobile app).


View and populate your timesheet

My timesheet allows you to curate a custom set of task and projects you want to track time against on a weekly basis.

View and populate your timesheet via the site-level Time section.

  1. Click Time () in the main navigation menu.
  2. Select the Timesheet tab.
  3. Populate the current week with tasks and projects you want to log time to:
    1. Add project or task: Select an individual project or task to populate in the timesheet.
    2. Copy last week: Populate all of the previous week's project and task rows in the current week.
    3. Auto populate: Populate all of your assigned tasks automatically in your timesheet. You can manually add more tasks, but you can't remove your assigned tasks when this is turned on.
      1. Click the three dots (vertical ellipsis) in the view's top right. Select Settings, then toggle on Auto populate timesheet.

  4. Populate additional tasks:
    1. Click View tasks in the view's top right to open the tasks panel.
    2. Drag a task from the panel and drop it onto the current week.

Each project and task row shows the total time you have tracked against that item on each day of the week being viewed. Each associated time log is nested underneath — click the arrow to expand.

Filter your timesheet

Refine the tasks and projects you want to view in your timesheet and log time against.

  1. Click Filter in the view's top right.
  2. Click a filter field (ex. Projects, Time, Timeframe) and choose the criteria you want to filter by (ex. show billable time only). Click More options to view and apply additional filters.
     
         Image Placeholder
     

  3. Repeat step 2 for each condition you want to set. Apply multiple filters at once for a highly refined view (ex. show only billable time logged on tasks due this week).
  4. Check the boxes at the bottom of the filters menu for each condition you want to enable (ex. show my tasks and team tasks).

Your timesheet automatically updates as you apply filters.

Manage filters

  • Clear: Click the X on the filter button to clear all active filters. Click the X beside one of the active filters in the filters panel to remove only that selection.
  • Save: Click the filter button, then select Save filter. This saves the current filter criteria for easy application in the future. Click Saved filters to view existing saved filters.
 

Sort your timesheet

Use the Sort by option at the top of the view to select a sort preference for your timesheet's projects and tasks:
  • Due date — projects and tasks with no due date are organized alphabetically after any items with due dates.
  • Projects / Tasks
  • Company name — sort companies' associated projects & tasks.
  • Last updated time log
💡 Click the arrow on the Projects / Tasks heading's right to switch between ascending or descending order.

Best practices

  • Getting paid: Check the billable status for time logs so you're correctly tracking your billable and non-billable hours.
  • Make a routine: Update your timesheet at the end of each working day or week. Memories are fallible — updating things sooner vs. later makes things easier (and more accurate).
