How time tracking works

How time tracking works in Vantage: logging, reviewing, approving, and exporting timesheet data.

Vantage tracks time against events. Team members log hours against the events they work on — from the mobile app during a job, or from the dashboard afterwards. Managers review and approve time from the Timesheets page.

How time flows through Vantage

  1. A team member logs time against an event — from the mobile app or the dashboard.

  2. Their hours appear on the Timesheets page, grouped by person and week.

  3. A manager reviews the hours and approves them.

  4. Approved time is locked and can be exported for payroll.

Once time is approved, it cannot be edited.

The Timesheets page

The Timesheets page shows a weekly grid, one row per person per time type, with daily hour totals across the week. Use the arrows to move between weeks, or click Today to jump to the current week.

FAQ

Do team members need to link time to a specific event?

No, it is optional. But linking time to an event gives managers better visibility of where hours are being spent across the schedule.

Can a manager log time on behalf of someone else?

Yes. From the Timesheets page, click Log time and select the person from the dropdown. Admins and managers can log time for anyone on the team.

What is the payroll week start setting?

The payroll week start controls which day the weekly grid begins on. It is set in Workspace Settings. Let us know if you need to change it.
