My time tracking module filters explained

Vue du calendrier

The Calendar view opens by default if start and finish times for time entries have been enabled in System Administration. You can adjust the zoom level using the dropdown menu, with options for Day, Work week, Week, or Month.

Existing time entries appear on the corresponding days they were logged. Entry colors reflect the type of work package associated with the logged time.

At the top section of each day in the calendar, there is a dedicated area that allows you to log time without specifying a start or finish time. This is useful for quick entries or for logging effort that isn’t tied to a specific time range.

You can log time by selecting a time range anywhere on the calendar or by using the + Log time button.

You can drag and drop time entries to reposition them within the same day or move them to a different day. To adjust the duration of an entry, drag the top or bottom edge of the time entry up or down.

Example of logging time in OpenProject My time tracking module

To edit a time entry, click it in the calendar, make your changes, and save. You can also delete it from the same menu.

At the bottom of each day a sum of hours per day is displayed. If week or month is selected, a respective total is also shown in the bottom right corner.

Vue en liste

The List view opens by default if start and finish times for time entries are disabled in System Administration. Just like in the Calendar view, you can select the zoom level using the dropdown menu — options include Day, Work week, Week, or Month.

In this view, time entries are grouped by day. Each day displays the total number of entries and their combined duration on the right side of the header line.

  • When the Day zoom is selected, the view is expanded by default.

  • When Week or Month zoom is selected, past days or weeks are collapsed by default. However, the current day (in Week view) or the current week (in Month view) is expanded, along with all future dates.

    Conseil

    If monthly level is chosen in the list view mode, time entries are aggregated by week and not by day. This is especially useful to get an overview of your tracked hours for each week.

Expanded days display time entries in a table format with the following columns:

  • Time
  • Hours
  • Subject (with a clickable link to the work package)
  • Project
  • Activity
  • Comment
  • + (last column, used to log time for that specific day)

To log time in List view, you can either:

  • Click the + Log Time button to add a time entry for any date outside the currently displayed range.
  • Use the + icon in the table to log time directly for a specific day.
