Tracking in real time vs. Manual time entries

Your project time can be recorded in real time, starting in the morning, stopping in the evening or else you can add your project time manually. We recommend that you record your project time in real time so that you are finished with time recording at the end of the day, and don’t have to bother with any laborious subsequent recording.

If you work e.g. for 2 customers at once, you simply track 1 customer instantaneously via Start-Stop and you track the second one afterwards.

As an Administrator you can also enter project time records for your employees manually.
