Setting Up Your Workspace

This tutorial walks you through the first-time configuration of your TT Time Tracker workspace. By the end, you will have a workspace that is ready for your team to start logging time.

Before you start

You need admin access to a workspace. If you don't have this yet, contact your TT Time Tracker super admin.

Step 1 — Log in and navigate to admin

  1. Open TT Time Tracker in your browser and sign in
  2. If prompted to choose a workspace, select yours
  3. Click the admin icon or navigate to the admin section

You should see the admin dashboard with statistics at the top.

  1. In the admin sidebar, click Settings
  2. Update the Workspace name to your company or team name
  3. Optionally upload a Logo — this appears in the app header
  4. Click Save

Step 3 — Invite your first worker

  1. In the admin sidebar, click Users
  2. Click Invite user (or the + button)
  3. Enter the worker's email address
  4. Choose their role:
    • Worker — can log time and upload invoices
    • Responsible — can also review and approve entries and invoices
  5. Click Send invitation

The worker will receive a link to create their account. Once they sign in, they will appear in the Users list.

Step 4 — Create a project

Projects are cost centres that time entries and invoices are attributed to.

  1. In the admin sidebar, click Projects
  2. Click New project
  3. Enter the project name
  4. Optionally set a responsible user (they will get the responsible role for this project)
  5. Click Save

Step 5 — Create a task list

Task lists define the types of work that can be logged against a project.

  1. In the admin sidebar, click Task Lists
  2. Click New task list
  3. Enter a name (e.g. "Standard Tasks" or "Site Work")
  4. Click Save
  5. Add tasks by clicking + Add task within the new list
  6. Enter task names (e.g. "Masonry", "Electrical", "Cleanup")

Step 6 — Assign the task list to the project

  1. Go back to Projects and open the project you created
  2. In the project details, select the task list you just created
  3. Save the project

You're ready

Your workspace now has:

  • A configured name and logo
  • At least one worker
  • A project with a task list

Workers can now log in, select the project and task when logging time, and submit entries for your approval. See Approve Time Entries to learn how to review submissions.
