Depending on your role in WorkBook, you can use a timer to save your time in
Resources for tasks that are assigned to other employees. Starting the timer prompts Workbook to record the time until you stop it. You can then save the recorded time on your time sheet in
Time & Expense. This is useful if you want to record the exact duration that an employee was working on a task.
