Time Tracking

Overview Back to top

The Time Tracking module lets you log work hours against any Jira issue or custom allocation created on the Resource Scheduler. Each entry is called a worklog — it records the issue or allocation, the date, the number of hours, and an optional description.

Worklogs are stored inside WorkHub's own database, not in Jira's native worklog system. This means you get dedicated date-range filters, a weekly grid view, Excel export, and full integration with the Timesheets and Reports modules.

Logging a Worklog Back to top

Click the + Log Work button in the toolbar to open the worklog form. Fill in the fields below and click Save.

1. Click "+ Log Work" — open the form from the toolbar at the top of the Time Tracking view.
2. Pick an issue — type in the Issue field to search by key or summary. Select the issue you worked on from the dropdown.
3. Set time spent — enter hours and minutes, or use the quick-select buttons for common durations.
4. Choose date — pick the date the work was done. Defaults to today.
5. Add a description (optional) — describe what you accomplished. This text shows up in the grid view and in exports.
6. Save — click Save. The new worklog appears immediately in the weekly grid.

Logging work against allocations

Worklogs can also be logged against custom allocations, not just Jira issues. When you open the Log Work dialog from the Time Tracking view, the issue search includes allocations alongside regular issues. When you log work directly from an allocation tooltip on the Resource Scheduler, the allocation is automatically pre-selected in the form.

Weekly Grid View Back to top

The weekly grid is the primary layout for time tracking. Issues appear as rows, days of the week as columns, and hours are displayed in cells at the intersection.

• Each row represents a Jira issue you have logged time against.
• Each column represents a day of the week (Monday through Sunday).
• Each cell shows the hours logged for that issue on that day.
• Row totals show the sum of hours for each issue across the week.
• Column totals show the sum of hours for each day across all issues.
• Week navigation arrows let you move to the previous or next week.

Date Range Filters Back to top

Use the date-range selector in the toolbar to control which worklogs appear in the grid.

Predefined ranges

• Today — worklogs for the current day only.
• This Week — Monday to Sunday of the current week.
• Last Week — the previous full week.
• This Month — first to last day of the current month.
• Last Month — the previous full calendar month.

Custom range

Choose Custom to pick any start and end date with the calendar picker. This is useful for billing cycles, sprints, or any period that does not match the presets.

Editing & Deleting Back to top

You can change or remove any worklog as long as it is not part of a submitted or approved timesheet.

Editing

1. Click a worklog entry in the grid to open the edit dialog.
2. Change any field — hours, date, description, or issue.
3. Click Save.

Deleting

1. Click the delete icon on the worklog entry.
2. Confirm the deletion in the dialog that appears.
3. The worklog is permanently removed.

Excel Export Back to top

Click the Export button in the toolbar to download your worklogs as an Excel file. The export includes every worklog that matches the current date-range filter.
