Time Tracking

In this article:

Overview

Time Tracking is a feature that allows users to enter the hours they spent working on the task in the cards. By keeping a systematic record of hours, we can find out how much time we actually need to complete specific tasks, which will help us plan our work better in the future.

The time entry in a card consists of the date and the exact number of hours incurred on that specific day. In addition, it is possible to describe the activity. You can also decide whether this time should be billed or not.

The Time Tracking section is located under the Resourcing tab of a card.

Example: Adding time entry in the Responsible fishing card.

You can view all the hours you've entered into the cards throughout KanBo in the My Time Bookings section.

The hours entered in the cards by KanBo users add up, and the exact time tracking data is displayed in a table in the Time Tracking section. This data can be exported.
