TripLog Time Tracking is a time tracking app based on Timesheet or project duration tracking, allowing users to log their time using a timesheet system or project duration system. The interface syncs to the cloud so Users and Admins can generate reports and monitor timesheets. An approval management integration is available with our Enterprise version to streamline timesheet approval. Available on iOS version 9.0 and Android version 4.0 or later.

Setting up time tracking is as simple as opening the app menu and activating the time tracking trial for existing customers. If you are a new customer, the time tracking module is enabled during your trial period.

You will be offered the choice between Timesheet tracking or Duration Tracking. This selection will configure how you record your time. You will be able to change this option later in settings.

If you want to change your time tracking options in the future, you will find the setting available under TripLog App > Main Menu ( three line icon ≡ ) > Settings > General Settings > Time Settings

Job Activities: when entering a new job activity, you will need to enter the name, choose a category color, the hourly rate, and the default clock-in reminder. (This edit screen is also where you can disable job activities that are no longer needed)

Hourly Rate: this is a value that can be associated with a specific job activity and will automatically calculate the total cost of the time entry on the reports screen.

Clock-Out Reminder: when a user is using a job activity and has an active time entry clocked in, they will receive a reminder that they are still clocked in on the app. This value can be changed, but the default value is 8 hours.

A user can clock in with time tracking in the app by going to the Time Tracking page and selecting the green button at the bottom of the screen.

Clock In

This will take you to a time entry screen where you can select the corresponding job activity, add location, tags, or notes, and click the clock-in button. This will return you to the time tracking screen, where you will see the entry with a running timer.

Clock Out / Edit Time Entry

You can click the red Stop button to return to the time entry edit screen. From there, the end time and duration will fill in automatically, and you can add additional tags or notes before clicking Save.

You can go back into a time entry to update its fields. You can add location, tags, notes, attach a photo, or change the job activity. Remember to click Save to update the time entry. If you want to end the time entry and clock out, be sure to update the end time. The duration will update based on this end time.

You can manually create an entry if your account is not locked. You can click the green Start button and update the Date, Start Time/End Time, and Duration fields to manually correct a missed clock-in or another prior period that was not recorded.

If you chose to use the duration tracking option, you will select the job activity and duration to create time blocks for the tasks being logged. Even so, you can update the time entry with locations, tags, and notes, as well as attach a photo.
