Time Overview
LogLoon’s time tracking is designed to be simple for field workers while giving the office complete visibility and control.
How Time Tracking Works
For Field Workers
- Open the LogLoon app
- Tap the big green Clock In button
- Select a project and cost code
- Work (take breaks as needed)
- Tap Clock Out when done
That’s it. Hours are calculated automatically.
For the Office
The Time tab in the web app shows all time entries in a table with:
- Date, user, project, and cost code
- Hours worked and break time
- Status (Draft, Submitted, or Approved)
- Flags for injuries or timecard issues
Time Entry Details
Each time entry captures:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Date | When the work was done |
| Hours Worked | Calculated from clock in/out times |
| Break Time | Time spent on breaks (tracked separately) |
| Project | Where the work was done |
| Cost Code | What type of work |
| Description | Notes about the work performed |
| Photos | Up to 10 photos documenting work |
| GPS Location | Clock in and clock out locations |
Clock Out Questions
When clocking out, workers answer two quick questions:
- Any injuries to report? - Flag safety incidents
- Is your timecard accurate? - Note any discrepancies
The Approval Workflow
Time entries flow through these statuses:
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Draft | Entry created but not yet submitted |
| Submitted | Submitted by worker, awaiting approval |
| Approved | Reviewed and approved by manager |
Only Admins and Managers can approve time entries. Approved entries can be exported to your payroll system.
