Introduction The Timesheet Manager app allows users to record their time spent completing activities across the different categories of work they undertake. Users are able to manage their own timesheets and those of other users they manage. Hornbill's Timesheet Manager App is currently undergoing major changes. Any feedback, enhancement suggestions, queries on the current functionality or capability of the app, and general how-tos can be posted on the dedicated Timesheet Manager forum found here: Hornbill Community forums: Timesheet Manager.

Timesheets

Right Hand Panel

• When adding time in Hornbill Timesheet Manager, this will be done on most occasions using the Right Hand Panel

• View time allocated per Category and Sub Category per Day, Week and Month
• View total time allocated per Day, Week and Month

Manage Categories

• Manage Categories

• Manage Sub Categories
• Manage Members

In order to separate out and record users time, it is important to define the Categories against which you want to record and report on user's time. It is also possible to define Sub Categories against each Category, an example of Category and Sub Categories could be:

• Project Management

• Planning
• Implementation
• Review

When defining Categories and Sub Categories it is also possible to assign which users (Members) can see and use the options when recording their time.

• Manage Default Categories

Having defined the Categories needed, it is possible to map each Category and or Sub Category to the following views, so the users don't need to manually select the Category / Sub Category when completing emails, and activities:

• Email
• Activity
• Request Actions

Reports

• Report on your own, co-workers or groups time
• Report by Category, Sub Category and Date
