Timesheet
User manual on the timesheet tables and actions.
Kimai 2 provides also a calendar view, which displays your timesheet entries in an easy readable format.
Duration only
When the duration_only mode is activated, you will only see the date and duration fields (see configurations chapter).
The duration field supports entering data in the following formats:
| Name | Format | Description | Examples |
|---|---|---|---|
| Colons | {hours}:{minutes}[:{seconds}] | Seconds are optional, overflow is supported for every field | 2:27 = 2 Hours, 27 Minutes / 3:143:13 = 5 Hours, 23 Minutes, 13 Seconds |
| Natural | {hours}h{minutes}m[{seconds}s] | Seconds are optional, overflow is supported for every field | 2h27m = 2 Hours, 27 Minutes / 3h143m13s = 5 Hours, 23 Minutes, 13 Seconds |
| Seconds | {seconds} | 3600 = 1 Hour / 8820 = 2 Hours, 27 Minutes |
Please note: if time rounding is activated (which is the default behaviour), then your entered seconds might be removed after submitting the form.
Rate calculation
The rate of a timesheet entry can be calculated from several settings.
It can have two values dedicated to the entry itself:
- if a fixed rate is set, the rate of a record is set to this exact value no matter how long the duration is
- if a hourly rate is set, it will be used to calculate the record rate by using it multiplied with the records duration
- each of the above can be set to 0, to set the records rate to 0
If none of the above was set the users rate will be used to calculate the records rate.
Please see also the configuration chapter about hourly rates for timesheet records to see how you can apply configurable multiplying factors based on day and time.
