# Timesheets

The **Timesheets** feature allows project resources to record the time spent on project tasks. Timesheet entries help track actual work performed against planned activities, providing a realistic view of project progress and resource utilization.

Unlike updating task status alone, Timesheets capture the actual effort spent on tasks, enabling more accurate project scheduling and progress monitoring.

Project Manager supports both **Billable** and **Unbillable** time entries:

* **Billable Time** – Time that can be charged to the customer. Billable entries reduce the allocated days remaining on a task and are used to calculate the **Estimated End Date**, **Calculated End Date**, and **Remaining Days**.
* **Unbillable Time** – Time spent on internal or non-chargeable activities. These entries accumulate against the task but do not affect project scheduling calculations.

For projects that are not commercially billed, it is recommended to record all time as **Billable** so that project end dates are calculated correctly as work progresses.

**Note:** Project Manager can be configured to use **Hours** instead of the default **Days** for task allocation, billing, and timesheet management. This guide uses the default **Days** configuration. Refer to the **Project Manager Configuration** section for more information.

#### Timesheet Listing

The **Project Timesheets** tab displays all timesheets associated with the selected project.

Project Manager provides two views for displaying timesheets:

* **Calendar View**
* **List View**

Selecting a timesheet entry in either view opens the complete Timesheet Details.

**Calendar View**

The **Calendar View** displays timesheet entries by week or month, allowing users to review work completed over a selected period.

Users can refine the displayed information using the filter options available at the top of the page.

Available calendar navigation options include:

* Previous and Next navigation
* Calendar date picker
* Weekly or Monthly view
* **Now** button to return to the current week or month

Timesheets can also be viewed from the global **Project CRM** area, where all project timesheets are displayed collectively.

**Filtering Timesheets**

The following filters are available when viewing project timesheets:

* **View by Days** – Displays **Billable** or **Unbillable** entries.
* **View by User** – Displays timesheets created by a specific Project CRM user.
* **View by Task Name** – Filters timesheets by project task.

Users can also view the notes associated with a timesheet by selecting the **Notes** icon displayed on each entry.

**List View**

The **List View** displays all project timesheet entries in a tabular format.

This view is particularly useful when a project contains a large number of timesheet entries over an extended period, allowing all entries to be reviewed in a single list.

Standard filtering options are also available when viewing timesheets in List View.
