Time Tracking Widget is sort of a personal dashboard for keeping track of your work. It shows everything you need to know about your assigned projects and tasks.
Assigned Projects List
Upon login on the Time Tracking Widget users will first see their Assigned Projects list with an overview list of all projects they are working on with total time spent on all the Tasks for each Project individually, as well as which Project currently has Task Timer active.
After selecting a Project what will appear is a Tasks List where users are able to see a list of all the tasks within that project and can also Start / Stop the Task Timer and edit its Progress.
Tasks List
Each of the tasks on the list has the following attributes displayed:
Task name,
Start / Stop button (these are used to start and stop the timer for the task),
Total time spent on the task,
Task priority (Low, Medium or High as assigned by the responsible manager),
Task progress status label (To Do, In Progress or Done),
👉 Good to know
Default Task Progress labels are To do, On hold, In progress and Done. A different one can be assigned and changed for each task anytime by either Employee on the Widget or Admin/Manager on the dashboard.
Task Priority (Low, Medium or High) can be assigned and changed per task by Admin/ Manager from the Dashboard only.
Add new Task
Adding a new Task can be simply done by employees from the widget by clicking on the Add New Task button that can be found on the Time Tracking widget.
❗ Note: For Employees to be able to add Tasks from the widget at least one Project has to be created and Admins should set up the application as following:

Click on the three dots on the far right of the Shared Settings you wish to have Visibility mode set or changed.
Projects/Tasks Options must be set so that Track Time on Projects is On, and that Employees are allowed to add new Tasks:
Click Settings on the Side bar.
Click Tracking Settings button.
Click on the three dots on the far right of the Shared Settings you wish to edit.
Scroll down to the Tasks section of the Settings page.
Make sure that Track time on tasks and Allow employees to add new tasks boxes are checked.
