An admin can [configure projects(/time-tracking/settings/projects/) for time tracking in Timebutler. Employees can then book working time to these projects, both when entering working hours via the entry form and when recording via the [time clock(/time-tracking/enter-working-hours/enter-working-hours-time-clock/) or the [time tracking terminal(/time-tracking/time-clock-terminal/time-tracking-terminal-on-a-tablet/).
Timebutler intentionally does not restrict or assign projects to specific employees or departments. Instead, each employee chooses their own project favorites. When an employee books a time entry to a project, Timebutler offers to save the project as a favorite. For future time entries, the project favorites then appear first in the selection.
For example, an employee sees 4 project favorites prominently offered for selection, and below them a separate list of the remaining projects. This gives the employee a quick and clear way to select their important projects.
These project favorites also offer additional advantages: HR or resource planning no longer needs to do the time-consuming and error-prone assignment of projects to dozens or hundreds of employees. And if an employee occasionally needs to book time to a project they do not book regularly, they can do so without waiting.
So you only need to configure the projects.
Every employee can view and edit their project favorites at any time. To do so, the user signs in to their user account and clicks at the bottom left on “Settings > Project favorites”.
