Start and end times are missing
If you don't see start and end times in the time entries view or the export, but only the duration.Please check, if:
- You've enabled the 'Cluster-Mode' for a project. Then only the duration is tracked instead of start and end times. Set your project to 'Slot-Mode' (Project > Edit).
- You've selected 'Show sums' in the export.
How do I pause a timer?
Tyme supports two different time tracking modes: The cluster mode and the slot mode.The cluster mode is the equivalent of a pause, since only one time entry is created per task and day. No start and end times are recorded, only the duration.So if you don't want to have a new time entry for every interruption of your task, switch your project to cluster mode (Project > Edit).
Displayed durations of recorded times seem to be wrong.
If you think the recorded durations are wrong, please check the rounding settings for the task.
If you set the rounding for example to 15 minutes, time will display only rounded times and not the exact tracked duration.
The exported PDF is empty, why?
When your PDF doesn't contain any time entries, please make sure, that:
- The time frame matches some time entries
- You’ve selected projects with time entries for that time frame
- They are billable or you’ve selected the option to include non billable tasks
- The entries contain durations larger than zero
How do I set up location based tracking on my iPhone (Geofencing)?
Open the edit dialog for the task you want to activate Geofencing, scroll down to the Geofencing section and activate the checkbox. Enter the location by street name or by dragging the map.
If geofence tasks don’t work properly, enlarge the radius of your location. The GPS signal might be bad in this area.
