Introducing New Timesheets Functionality!

Aug 18, 2024

In this release, we've included a completely new timesheets system! The objective is to demonstrate the use of the new timesheets functionality, focusing on creating timesheets manually and logging time via the mobile app. Key steps include navigating to the timesheets panel, starting shifts by beginning travel within a task, and logging time by stopping travel or starting a job within the task. Shifts continue until manually ended, with all travel and job time recorded.
