All About Work Logs: How to Track Your Work Hours

How to manage and register your and your teammates' working hours

The Work Logs tool is an essential feature for tracking and managing work hours effectively, serving as a centralized hub for time management. This guide explains how to access submitted work logs, add manual entries, and leverage the tool’s features for efficient and accurate tracking of individual and team hours.

Work Logs provide a detailed view of submitted entries, offering key information such as the date, client name, task description, hours worked, and the validation status of each entry. Users can easily filter these logs by status—validated or pending validation—or by specific date ranges to quickly locate the information they need. This feature simplifies record-keeping and enhances the ability to review and manage time logs effectively.

For those needing to make manual adjustments or add additional entries, the Work Logs tool allows for easy input of hours and related details. This functionality is particularly useful for logging missed timers, correcting errors, or recording additional tasks performed outside the regular workflow.

The platform also supports data export, enabling users to download and share work log details for reporting or analysis. This feature is invaluable for generating summaries of work hours, preparing invoices, or presenting data to clients and stakeholders.

With these capabilities, the Work Logs tool promotes accurate, transparent, and streamlined time management for both individual users and teams.

Accessing the Work Logs Tool

To access the Work Logs tool in Bizman, log in to your account and navigate to the sidebar, where you’ll find the Work Logs module under the Timers section. Clicking on the Work Logs tool will open the worklogs page featuring a table that provides a comprehensive view of your work hours.

Within the Work Logs module, you can review all submitted hours, whether they were tracked automatically using timers or added manually.

Adding Work Logs Manually

To manually add Work Logs in Bizman, begin by navigating to the Work Logs module from  the sidebar menu. Then, locate the "Add Worklog" option to begin creating a new entry.

Start by selecting the relevant client for whom the work was performed. Next, specify the task type to categorize the task. Providing these details ensures that the work log is accurately associated with the appropriate client and task, making it easier to organize and review later.

In the description field, include a detailed account of the work performed. This could encompass specifics about the task, project milestones, or any additional information relevant to the entry. A clear and thorough description not only helps with personal organization but also facilitates better communication with team members and administrators who may review the logs.

Enter the time spent on the task and specify the date on which the work was completed. Accurate time and date information are critical for proper time tracking and billing purposes.

Once all the details are completed, finalize the entry by clicking the "Add" button. This saves the log to the system, where it will be accessible for validation, reporting, or any necessary adjustments.
