Adding time entries

Important ❗️: We recommend minimising manual entries and making time tracking a habit. Manually added entries are visibly marked as “Manual”.

You may want to add time entries:

• As a manager for your team member
• If you forgot to clock in

Steps to add a time entry:

1. Go to Timesheets and select a member from the list.
2. Click on the Add Time Entry button if no entries have been added yet OR tap the plus icon on the top right corner of their daily timesheet.
3. Select Time entry and tap on Continue.
4. Choose the type of entry you want to add: In | Out | Break.
   Note: Only one type of entry is permissible at a time, In and Out entries have to be added subsequently.
5. Fill in the details of your entry.
6. Tap Confirm to log time.

Editing time entries

Jibble allows you to edit existing time entries for various reasons. You can adjust timestamps, update locations, or modify details like activities, projects, and notes associated with the entry. 

These edits are always documented in the “Change History” section of your timesheet. For more information on how to identify entries and view the changes made to them, refer to our guide on how to know if a time entry was edited or deleted.

Steps to edit a time entry:

1. Go to Timesheets and select a member’s profile you wish to view.
2. Tap on a time entry you wish to edit.
3. There are a few things you will be able to edit within a time entry:
   • Editing the time
     • Note: A time entry will be labelled as a “Manual Entry” if timestamp is edited.
       
   • Editing locations
     • Important❗: For team members to edit their location details on time entries, you’ll need to enable the “Edit locations” permission within the Time Tracking Settings. Refer to our guides on configuring time tracking policies or configuring custom time clock restrictions for more details on permission settings.
       
     • For admins and managers that want to add or edit locations on other people’s time entries, the specific permissions to edit locations on time entries must be enabled for them.
   • Editing activities and projects
   • Editing notes 
4. Once you are done editing, select Confirm to save your changes. 
5. A prompt will appear for you to describe why you’ve made this change. Select Confirm once done.
