Worklog structure

The Worklog module consists of three main layouts, each focused on a different aspect of time tracking and analysis. Below is an overview of how you can use them, but we also have dedicated articles in this chapter explaining all the details.

The Logs layout displays all the data that matches your filter settings. This layout is primarily informational, showing all the time booked in the system for events (including Tasks). Use [Logs] to work with the complete data set and analyze certain aspects using the filters.

The Timesheets layout shows the effort in a week-by-week view. This layout also allows you to edit the time spent on a particular Task in a given week or add more Tasks to the list. Use Timesheets to gain weekly perspectives on your work.

The Workload layout is your central location to track the workload of selected people in your Workplace. It calculates the time spent on all events by selected people and shows it against their weekly availability. Use Workload to make sure the work is distributed evenly in Teams or Planners.
