Time tracking
Time entry is the process of recording the actual time that a resource consumes. Time entries in Project Operations allow cost and sales prices to be calculated as tasks progress. These entries help the project manager keep on top of projects and tasks. Time entries also notify resource managers of any potential vacation or absences that appear on the schedule board as Out. These notifications allow resource managers to plan around those events.
Time overview
When recording time in Project Operations, users can track against any level in the project, including the task, summary, or project level.
Project team members create and submit time entries for approval and the project approvers will approve the entries. The project team member can recall a time entry for corrections.
