Mobile Time Entry

With Mobile Time Entry you can accomplish basic time entry functions like finding projects, reporting hours, adding descriptions and providing feedback on task completion. 

Time Entry Screen

The Time Entry screen will display a weekly set of seven time cards (one cell for each day of the week).   Projects and tasks are listed in the horizontal rows of the Time Entry screen below the time card cells.  A row will appear for each project on which you are scheduled, any project using detailed task management where you have been assigned a task, any project you may have already reported time to for that week, or if you have pinned that project.

Below the project list is a summary of time for the displayed week.  This display shows the total Draft, Rejected and Submitted hours.  Missing hours are also displayed and calculated based on your normal working hours.  If in Projector your regular work schedule is for 40 hours per week, then this amount is the number of hours needing entry to equal 40 hours. Missing time is not related to how many hours that you were requested or booked for. In weeks that include company holidays, your regular working hours could be reduced, lowering the amount of time that is expected for you to report.

The bottom row of the Time Entry screen contains buttons that, if enabled, will allow you to Save or Submit your time along with options to show your submitted time in a Daily, Weekly or Monthly format.


Once a day and project is selected add hours by clicking on the down arrow next to the Time cell: 

This will open a scrollable window where the desired hours may be selected:


 
 
When the desired amount is found press the value to select, then press Done.  You can use the Previous and Next buttons to move to other projects/tasks in the list.

sign in the upper right hand corner of the form to display a new screen where you can search and select other projects.
