Within MobiWork you have the flexibility to add start and end dates/times for selected users, thus enhancing your control over time management. You can easily manage and track user hours as well as indicate the type of work being performed or add any notes related to the time entry.
It is important to note that there are two distinct variants of the Add Time Tracking pop-up window, each serving specific functions. The Add Time Tracking: Start & End pop-up window will allow you to input both start and end dates/times conveniently. The Add Time Tracking: Duration pop-up window will only allow you to input the start time/date. This section will further elucidate the different methods for accessing these pop-up windows and outline their unique features.
Note: Please note that the Work Order Action Items are linked to the Time Tracking feature. As you toggle the Action Items, the time tracking will be recorded accordingly. For more information about the work order Action Items, please see the Time Tracking feature page.
There are two different Add Time Tracking pop-up windows that you can access; the Add Time Tracking: Duration pop-up window will only allow you to input the start time and date.
The Add Time Tracking: Start & End pop-up window will allow you to input the start and end time/date for the user. You will be able to easily tell the difference between the two, as the Add Time Tracking: Start & End pop-up window will have an extra field to input the end date and time.
