Creating a New Timesheet

To create a new timesheet, select New from the File menu and enter a file name at the prompt. The new file will automatically become the current file and any times will be logged to the new timesheet until another timesheet is opened or created.



Opening a Timesheet

To open a pre-existing timesheet, select Open from the File menu and then browse to a timesheet. The opened file will become the current file and times will be logged to the opened timesheet until another timesheet is opened or created.



Saving a Timesheet

Times are automatically saved to a timesheet whenever a task is clocked out, a new task is clocked in, or when a task is running and the application is closed.  No times are saved unless at least one minute has elapsed.



Entering a Time

To enter a time, either click the Clock In button, the Miscellaneous Task button, or use one of the User Defined Task buttons.  If the Clock In button is clicked, the default task (defined in the setup screen) will be registered as the time being tracked.  If the Miscellaneous Task button is clicked, the user may type in a task on the fly and the time for that task will be tracked.  Otherwise, the times relating to the selected User Defined Task button will be tracked. An entry for the selected task will be recorded once the task has been clocked out of provided that at least one minute has elapsed.



Entering a Miscellaneous Time

Click the Miscellaneous Task button and then enter the name of a task that you want to track when prompted. If the Task Name dialog box is not cancelled, time tracking will commence for the miscellaneous task entered.



Altering Clock In Attributes

To alter the task description or the start time that the active task was clocked in, select Clock In Attributes from the Edit menu. The clock in attributes can only be adjusted if there is a task that is active.
