What This App Does Not Do
Read this before you buy. Everything below is something the app deliberately leaves to another app or to you.
One timer per person.
Starting a second task stops the first - which is what actually happens anyway.
It needs timesheets enabled on the project.
A project that does not allow timesheets has nothing to write to.
It does not approve time.
Approval is the timesheet approval app's job.
The clock is not a tracker.
It records the interval between start and stop, not what was on screen.

Instruction
Instruction video: HR Timesheet Timer
1. Add Time Attendance Start/Stop Timesheet button on a task to simplify the timesheet process on Viindoo Enterprise Management software.
Recording actual task performance time is a quick way to report work to help managers control details of task performance and record work progress. Besides entering the time at the Timesheets tab, you can press Log Timesheet, the system will display a timer recording the number of hours from the beginning to the end of the job, and press Stop Timesheet Log to finish.
2. Add more filters to find the WIP timesheet tasks.
To quickly search for tasks that are being logged timesheet by the system and you have not stopped the timesheet feature, this module provides you with additional task management tools with two default filters:
- All WIP Timesheet: with project manager rights or the Project app administrator rights, you will be able to filter all the work-in-progress tasks of all employees participating in the project.
- My WIP Timesheet: you will quickly find your work-in-progress task which is still having the timesheet logged automatically by the system.
