We get it, timesheets suck. So when we set out to build a better digital tool for the job.
Time logs in Magnetize
Honestly, logging time in Magnetize is so simple, you could probably work this out for yourself. But that said, there are a few features that we're really excited about.
On the job
To log your time on a job, scroll down to the scheduled dates section and load the right date.
Then add your time:
- Start/finish times - in the spinner, click and drag the start/end times for your work that day
- Downtime - any work breaks (e.g. lunch)
- Travel time - your total travel time
and Click "Save" to save your time log to Magnetize
Everyone's time logged for the job
Your total time logged time will now display back on the job screen. You'll notice that you can see when your workmates have added their time to the job too.
Click on your hours logged to edit it if you need.
