Explanation of the Table Columns

• Day
  This is the date for which the project time is to be entered
• Project
  To identify the project, the short name with the fixed prefix is shown here
• Name
  The full project name
• Comment
  Here you can describe in more detail how the time being entered was used, in order to get an even better overview of the work done over the course of the project
• From
  The time at which work on the project began
• To
  The time at which work on the project was interrupted / ended
• Time
  This is the difference between the From and To times - it shows in hours how long the project was worked on. As an alternative to entering the from and to times, you can also enter just the amount of time in the "Time" field - e.g., 1.30 for 1 hour and 30 minutes
• Bill.
  Short for "billable" - indicates whether the booked time is billable or not
• Actions
  Clicking (Edit) lets you make changes to the entries afterward. You must then save them by clicking or discard them by clicking .
  Clicking (Delete) deletes the project time entry from the table. For safety, you must confirm this action.
• Sum
  Short for total. The individually entered project times are added up here and the total is displayed.
• Pres.
  Short for presence. If the user has the Personalwolke Time module, booked presence times are displayed here. Otherwise, the default value 0 is always displayed.
• Diff.
  The presence time is subtracted from the sum of the entered project times. Depending on whether the presence time exceeds the project times, falls short of them, or the values match, the result is a negative (red), positive (blue) or 0 (green) value

Project Time Overview - Table

Vergrößern

As you can see in the screenshot, on Monday, 04/08, Mr. Renner entered four different project times. In the last three columns, you can see that his booked presence of 4 hours exactly matches the sum of his entered project times. This results in a difference of 0.00 (green).

On Tuesday, 04/09, no project times have been entered yet. Because of his presence time, there is therefore a deficit of 3.23 hours (red). Mr. Renner can add the project times at any time and thus restore the balance.

On Wednesday, 04/10 (the current day), the value 0.00 is displayed in the Pres. column, because presence for the current day is always visible only on the following day. This results in a surplus of 1.02 hours (blue). The employee can view the bookings for the current day by choosing right-click -> Show daily journal (provided the user has also activated the Personalwolke Time module).

Row Options

Right-clicking the desired row gives Mr. Renner the following options:
