Time Tracking Overview

Welcome to Humi Time Tracking!

We're excited to introduce you to our Time Tracking feature, designed to make managing your team's hours simple. With Time Tracking, your team can easily submit their hours worked and upcoming hours directly within Humi. These hours will then flow right into timesheets for quick review and easy approval.

Before you get started, there are a few setup steps to ensure everything runs smoothly. This post will guide you through these essential steps so you can start with confidence. Let’s get started!

Setting up Time Tracking

1. The first step to kick off your journey with this feature is adding employees to Time Tracking so we have something to track! 
   
   When configuring Time Tracking for the first time, assigning either yourself or another admin to the module is crucial. This ensures seamless operation and guarantees that important notifications are delivered promptly to someone on your team whenever necessary. At least one admin must be assigned to Time Tracking at all times.
2. Understanding Approval Flows makes creating projects easier. There are three approval flows to select from:
   
   
   • Project Owner(s) Approval - The Project Owner approves hours
   • Direct Manager Approval - The employee's direct manager approves hours
   • Automatic Approval - Hours are automatically approved when entered
3. Set up a Timesheet Deadline and Reminders. This helps to ensure that no one on your team forgets to log their hours or approve an employee's timesheets.
   You can also enable Future Timesheet Submissions which allows employees to submit timesheets up to 90 days in advance.

4. Have you ever wanted the hours tracked on a project to be integrated with payroll data? Well, the wait is over. Our Time Tracking to Payroll Integration does just that. Check out this article to learn how to set it up.
