Create a Timecard

Objective

To create a new timecard in the Company level Timecard tool.

Background

You can use the Company level Timecard tool to record the number of hours employees spend working on your project tasks. A timecard entry captures the Procore project, cost code, number of hours and time type. You can also indicate whether or not the entry is billable to a project, as well as enter any comments. If you have created timecard entries in the past, you can also cut down on your data entry time by copying a previous timecard entry. 

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:
    • To add timecard entries for all users in your company: 
      • 'Admin' level permissions on the Company level Timecard tool.
    • To add a timecard entry for yourself: 
      • 'Standard' level permissions or higher on the Company level Timecard tool.
  • Additional Information:
    • If your company has enabled Procore's Timesheets tool, data entered in the Company level Timecard tool can be managed as timecard entries in the Company and Project level Timesheets tool.
