Time tracking reminders


There are 2 types of time tracking reminders available for each user in their profile settings.  An alarm will inform users when they forget to start a timer or when it’s running for too long.

Reminders refer only to a web timesheet timer, it won't work if you track time with a mobile app, desktop app, or a browser plugin.


How to enable reminders?

Navigate to your avatar icon in the upper right corner and select Profile settings option from the list. Next, scroll down to the Time tracking reminder section and input your own values.

Administrators can not modify these reminders for users from their teams.
