Time Tracking Pro ​

Role: Project Admins turn Time Tracking on. Admins and Contributors can log time. Commenters and Guests can't.

Overview ​

Log time per work item, see how much time each project member spent, and download consolidated worklogs from one screen with Time Tracking in Plane.

Project members can easily log the time they spend working on specific work items directly within the work item details page. Each time entry can include details such as the amount of time spent and optional notes to provide context. Plane also offers comprehensive reports that aggregate time-tracking data across different projects helping managers analyze productivity and ensure successful project delivery.
