How do personal timesheets work?

Understanding your tracked hours and indicators in personal timesheets

Your personal timesheet shows your clock-ins, payroll hours, and visual indicators that reflect your daily activity.

Daily/Detailed personal timesheet

This view shows a complete breakdown of your activities for the day. You can access it by selecting Daily from the view dropdown on your personal timesheet page.

The view is divided into three sections, each showing a different type of information:Three types of timesheet view

  • Time entries view

Your daily timesheet shows a breakdown of your time entries, tracked hours, and payroll hours. As you review your entries, you might notice small icons next to them—they offer quick context, such as how the time was tracked or if it was edited.Time entries view

There are two types of icons you might see:

  • Device icons – indicate which device was used to clock in or out.Device indicators on timesheets

This tab shows your payroll hours for the entire week, broken down by day. You can see your total hours and how they’re distributed across each day. A weekly summary appears on the left panel, and you can scroll through previous weeks to view past breakdowns.Payroll view

  • Screenshot view

If your admin or owner has enabled screenshot capturing and you’ve tracked time using Jibble’s desktop time tracker, your screenshots will appear here. They’re organized into hourly timelines, with screenshots taken at 2, 5, or 10-minute intervals depending on what your admin has set.Screenshot view
