Track Time for your Workforce
In Procore, timecards and timecard entries are used to log the number of hours employees and workers spend doing work on a construction project.
Each day, create a new daily timesheet. A daily timesheet contains the individual timecard entries submitted by your employees and workers for a specific date. By default, you can track the work's cost code, work location, number of hours worked, time type (for example, regular or overtime) and mark whether or not the entry's hours are billable. You can also configure your project's timesheets to capture timekeeping data such as classifications and sub-jobs. See Create a Timesheet and Configure Advanced Settings: Project Level Timesheets.
Track Production Quantities
Production quantities are a measurable amount of work on a construction project. For example, cubic yards of concrete, number of light fixtures or linear feet of piping. One entered, they can then be tracked against the imported budgeted production quantities using the Production Quantity Report. See Add Quantities to a Timesheet and Set Up a Field Production Report.
Compare Actuals to your Budget
Your labour and quantities actuals can be compared against your budgeted time and quantities, giving you real time insight for how your project and tasks are trending. See View a Labour Budget to Actual Report and View a Field Production Report.
View a Summary of Daily and Weekly Hours and Hours by Type
When creating time entries, you can see a summary of the person's hours by type (regular, overtime, holiday, etc.) and total hours for that day. You can also the total see how many hours were entered across all projects for the person that day and week, to help improve accuracy and easily catch errors. See Create a Timesheet.
Configure Break Time Settings
If your company tracks break times, you can configure your project’s lunch break settings to one of the following options to deduct the break from an entry's total time:
- Total Time to track the total number of minutes a break was taken.
- Start and Stop Time to track the exact times that a person took their break.
- None to not track breaks in Timesheets.
If you choose to track breaks, you can set a default amount of time to simplify time entry for your team! See Configure Advanced Settings: Project Level Timesheets.
Simplify Time Entry with Task Codes
Task codes consolidate the sub job and cost code into a single field. You can select which types of codes your team can attribute time to in Timesheets and My Time, making it easy for them to accurately track their time. Data entered for budgeted task codes is automatically attributed to the appropriate code in your budget.
To help keep your budget on track, you can decide whether or not your team can enter time for non-budgeted items, depending on the phase of your project.
Finally, new filters in Timesheets and My Time make it easy for teams to find the task codes they need and are automatically saved so teams have a relevant list for the work they are performing. See Enable or Disable Task Codes.
