Start-Stop Time Feature

Use the Start-Stop Time feature to record your start and stop times for each new task, breaks, and meals.

The Start-Stop Time feature is available in Costpoint Mobile T&E only if your company uses it. Your timesheet class must be configured to Break Tracking, Start/Stop Detail, or Start/Stop Summary in Costpoint Time & Expense in order for this feature to be available on a mobile device through Costpoint Mobile T&E.

Attention: For more information on how to configure the Start-Stop Time feature, see "Configure the Timesheet Class to Use the Time Clocking Features" in the Costpoint Mobile Time and Expense Technical Installation and Configuration Guide.

The related Start-Stop Time screens displayed in the Costpoint Mobile T&E application depend on how your timesheet class is configured for the Start-Stop Time feature.

Start/Stop Detail and Start/Stop Summary

If your timesheet class is configured to Start/Stop Detail or Start/Stop Summary, you can enter start and stop times for individual timesheet charge rows, meals, and breaks.
