The Time Logging feature in Webvizio is an extra layer of task management visibility that allows users with the Assignee role and above to log effortlessly, track time spent on tasks, measure resource allocation, and have a better transparent overview of individual and team productivity. 

You can log time even if you’re not assigned as the task’s executor. 

How to Log Time

To log your time for a task, follow those simple steps:

  1. Locate the task you want to log time for
  2. Click the Time log icon (⌛) and then “Add time log” to create a new record
  3. The date will be preset on the current date by default, but you can choose a different date manually
  4. Enter the time period you want to log in manually or choose from pre-set options
  5. Click “Save“

That’s it! Your time log is now recorded and ready for tracking. 

Time Logs in Webvizio cannot be edited, but can be deleted when needed: 

  • Assignees can delete their own logs
  • Project Managers and Account Owners can delete anyone’s logs

To delete a time log record, all you need to do is:

  1. Find the task with the log to delete
  2. Locate the log record at the bottom of the task
  3. Hover over the log and click the red X (❌)

Viewing Time Log Reports

To view a detailed report of time logs:

  1. Go to Project Settings > Reports
  2. Find the “Download Time Logs Report” section
  3. Select your desired date range
  4. Click “Download“

The downloaded report includes two spreadsheet tabs:

  1. Time Logs: Detailed list of all logged activities in the selected period
  2. User Time Logs: Overview of hours logged per user, with breakdowns per task

Use the User Time Logs report to assess team productivity by comparing individuals’ total logged hours and time spent on each task.

Note: Reports are only available on paid plan subscriptions.
