Timecard (Cloud Coach Professional)

OVERVIEW


For Cloud Coach Professional users, the Timecard feature allows for a user’s time to be entered and tracked on the Timecard page. This page allows time to be entered against objects such as Account, Case, Opportunity, and of course, Project Task. Create new time entries and edit existing time entries from one simple view. Users can navigate by week or select the tab that allows for the most efficient time entry.
