Timer

With the timer function, you can easily register and keep track of travel time, working time, overtime and kilometers for different orders. Start the clock and let it handle the calculation!

As soon as you start a timer, it is shown by a red exclamation point together with the timer symbol. The number above the exclamation mark shows how many Unexpired timers you have. An Unexpired timer is not yet linked to an order. See how to do this under Link a timer to a work order.

For overtime registration to work, you must have working hours entered in your user settings. To set it up, admin permission is required.

You can see the timer symbol in the upper right corner (on a computer).

How to view the timer on a mobile device.

On a mobile device click on the symbol with four squares and the menu opens.

Click on the timer symbol to quickly record kilometers and clock your working hours. A new tab will pop up.

Trip
  1. Enter the meter reading when you start your journey.
  2. Click Start trip.
  3. Upon arrival. Fill in the current meter reading. The final meter reading will then be filled in at the start of the next trip.
  4. Click End trip.

Working time

  2. When done click Stop work.

If you want to delete a trip or working time for any reason, click on the red cross. The ones you deleted will remain on the list of all timers marked Removed.

If you want to see the history of all timers and notes or change a timer, click on the link All timers. You can change times and kilometers – if it is not linked to an order. Here you also see which order a timer is linked to.

How to connect a timer to a Work order:
  1. Open the Work order.
  2. Click Edit.
  3. Open the Timer.
  4. Click the working hours or trip you want to connect and a popup will appear.
  5. Select Yes.
  6. A new popup opens. Choose which assignment you want to link the order to. Which choices come up depend on which settings you have made to, for example, report time on a work order.

Example when using the Work order setting ”Show other articles”.

The information ends up, by default, under the heading Articles. With an administrator account, it is possible to set the work hours/kilometers to be entered under the Time heading instead.

Your administrator sets which articles are used for travel time, working time and mileage compensation.

If you want to change a timer, click on All timers. This does not change the connection to or the time of an order.

Information to administrators

Log in with your admin account to set which articles should be the default article (article number) for mileage cost, travel time, working time and overtime for Timer under Timer Settings.

In order to register overtime you need to set working hours for the users in your group. Go to Group settings, click on a user and select User settings.
