In Connecteam, jobs can represent different things depending on how you run your business. For instance, a job can be a project or a role (e.g., manager or waiter).&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After creating a job, you need to navigate to the time clock\u2019s timesheet tab in Connecteam and click on your timesheet to access it. Then, you need to select the job and add your start and end times, as shown in the screenshot below.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1158\" height=\"494\" src=\"https:\/\/clockify.me\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Connecteam-timesheets.png\" alt=\"Connecteam timesheets\" class=\"wp-image-28662\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clockify.me\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Connecteam-timesheets.png 1158w, https:\/\/clockify.me\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Connecteam-timesheets-703x300.png 703w, https:\/\/clockify.me\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Connecteam-timesheets-1110x474.png 1110w, https:\/\/clockify.me\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Connecteam-timesheets-768x328.png 768w, https:\/\/clockify.me\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Connecteam-timesheets-18x8.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1158px) 100vw, 1158px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Logging work hours in Connecteam<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although it took me several steps to log hours, which was tedious, I liked that I could make my timesheet more detailed by adding different columns.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apart from the type, date, and start and end columns, in Connecteam, you can also add:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Total hours,&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Regular hours,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Total overtime,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Weekly total,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Total regular, and other columns to your timesheets.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This enables you to quickly access any crucial information regarding your employees\u2019 time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What\u2019s more, you can also add columns for employee and manager notes so that both your employees and you can stay updated on important daily details.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"341\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/clockify.me\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Connecteam-employee-and-manager-notes-341x300.png\" alt=\"Connecteam employee and manager notes\" class=\"wp-image-28663\" srcset=\"https:\/\/clockify.me\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Connecteam-employee-and-manager-notes-341x300.png 341w, https:\/\/clockify.me\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Connecteam-employee-and-manager-notes-14x12.png 14w, https:\/\/clockify.me\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Connecteam-employee-and-manager-notes.png 709w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 341px) 100vw, 341px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Adding employee and manager notes in Connecteam<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, you can set up and <a href=\"https:\/\/clockify.me\/help\/track-time-and-expenses\/breaks-web\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">track breaks<\/a> in Connecteam to stay compliant with labor laws.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, Connecteam offers an auto clock-out option that allows you to clock out your employees automatically after a certain amount of hours worked.
