Timers & Timesheets

Timers provides an easy and convenient way for your team to accurately track time by starting and pausing timers as they work on tasks and proofs throughout the day. Timesheets provides users with a view to easily see time tracked broken down per project, task, and even category on a day-by-day basis. Enable this feature by toggling on Timers & Timesheets. If not enabled, team members will still be able to create individual time entries against tasks and proofs.
