The **Time Effort** section can be found within a project in the tab menu. It’s used to analyze all work hours logged to the project. This view helps project managers, controlling, and billing teams keep track of tracked hours, spot bottlenecks, and document project outcomes correctly.

All about Time Tracking

## How it works

After opening the tab, all project time entries show up in a **table view**. By default, entries are **grouped by date**. For each day, the bookings are totaled and displayed.

With the **“Log Time”** button, you can create a new entry at any time. You can pick whether the entry is project-wide or tied to a specific task.

The table has these columns:

- **Date**
  Shows the booking date of the time entry.
- **User**
  Name of the person who logged the time. An avatar helps with identification.
- **Activity**
  The selected work activity, e.g. _Development_, _Management_ or _Testing_. You can set up these activities in the project settings.
- **Time spent**
  The amount of hours or minutes logged (e.g. “2 h”, “3.25 h”).
- **Task**
  The ticket the time is logged to. Clicking the ticket code opens the ticket in the overlay.
- **Comment**
  Optional note about special cases or issues during the work.

On the right side of each row you'll find **editing icons** available:

- **Pencil icon**: Opens a dialog to edit duration, activity or comment.
- **Trash bin**: Deletes the time entry permanently.

At the top right, a summary field shows the **total time spent** for all displayed bookings.

In the header, you can also add **filters**, for example by user or date. A toggle only shows your own time entries.
