Logging hours#

You can add hours from two places: per task or via the general Hours view. The result is the same; the choice is about ergonomics.

Per-task hour entry#

When you’re in a task:

1. Open the Hours tab.
2. "+ Add hours" button.
3. In the modal:
   • Date — calendar picker. You can collapse the calendar if you don’t need it.
   • Hours — e.g. 1.5 or 1:30. Both decimal and colon work.
   • Custom task dropdown — optional, if you want to specify which sub-task (“Electrical”, “Travel”, “Break”).
   • Description — optional note.
4. Save → the line appears in the list and syncs to the server (or queues if you’re offline).

General Hours view#

When you want to see all your hours for the day/week/month in one list:

• Open from the bottom-nav Hours tab.
• Days are grouped, with a week total and month total at the top.
• Same “+ Add” button as in the task view.
• Use this in the evening to check: “did I log everything?”

**Month counter in the header** "Month: 142.5 h" is shown in the Hours view — helps balance against working-hour targets.

The 5-day edit window#

You can edit or delete your own hours entries for 5 calendar days after they were created. After that the line is locked — only the foreman can change it.

**Don't leave shaky lines for more than a week.** If you spot a wrong line, fix it now. Otherwise you need the foreman's help.

Auto-logging via task start/stop#

Alternatively let the PWA log hours for you:

1. Open a task.
2. “Start work” → the clock runs automatically.
3. When done, “Stop” → the line is saved.

Easiest on site, but remember to tap “Stop” when you leave. A forgotten clock → an inflated hours line → foreman has to fix it.
