Time tracking is a major component of tracking project progress in ProWorkflow. Any given Item can have a number of hours allocated to it, so your target for hours tracked is guided by that field.
Time can be tracked in multiple ways.
One way is by tracking time directly on the Item in question. This can be done by clicking on the Time Spent field, as it relates to any given item:
The first method of tracking time is referred to as Real-Time Time Tracking. This is functionally starting a timer on the selected item that will continue to run until you choose to stop it. This can be done by clicking the stop icon on the timer section that appears. It should be mentioned that if you leave a timer running erroneously, you will have a chance to edit and correct the record before it is confirmed.
The second method of tracking time is referred to as Add Time Entry. This is a manual time-entry method. You will only need to state how much time you spent and what time/date you spent it on.
Time records can be seen and edited by clicking on the relevant task name. Of course, you can also build reports centred around time records. You can always view a breakdown of the Time Tracked on any given Item easily by clicking on the "Time Tracked" tab on that item:
You can also use the Time Tracking Timer button, which is located both on every item and at the top of your page:
Simply click on the time-tracking button and select the Item you wish to track time against, then click "Start Timer" (of course, if you are using the time-tracking button on an Item, that Item will be pre-selected!):
You can also use that button to manually log time, by selecting "Manual Log".
Finally, you can track time by using the drag-n-drop method on your timesheet page. Just click and drag on the calendar to add a log, and fill in the relevant details for your time entry:
