How to Use Time Tracking In ClickUp

1. Find timer button in ClickUp task

Click a required task from a list in your project. A dialog window opens where you can view and edit the contents of the task. Near the date of task creation, you can see the TMetric Start timer button.

2. Start timer on a task

Click the Start timer button and TMetric will start recording your ClickUp working time. Notice that the Start timer button changes to the Stop timer button and displays the time spent on the task.

If you are the workspace owner or assigned admin in TMetric and start the timer for the first time, TMetric pulls out from ClickUp and adds to your TMetric workspace:

  • task name
  • task ID
  • project name

The corresponding time entry appears on the Time page in the TMetric web app. You can easily navigate back to the ClickUp task simply by clicking the link icon next to the task name.

3. Edit time entry, if necessary

A time entry with an external task can be edited. You can edit the name of the task and change a project without losing a link to the ClickUp task.

To disassociate the TMetric task from the ClickUp task, click the cross icon next to the task name in the bottom right corner of the time entry editor.

4. View a time report

Reports show the time from different external systems, including the ClickUp time tracking report as well as the time entered manually in TMetric.

5. Configure time synchronization with ClickUp

TMetric supports fast integration with ClickUp, one-click time tracking and flexible time synchronization. You work on your tasks in ClickUp, seamlessly track time with TMetric, and sync it for further reporting and invoicing.

Once you connect TMetric with ClickUp, the time logged in TMetric will be synchronized automatically to ClickUp every hour. There is also a possibility to run an instant synchronization by clicking the Sync Time Now button.

You can manage the ClickUp integration on the Integrations page of the TMetric app. In particular, you can:

  • View log to see the results of synchronization
  • Edit the integration settings
  • Delete an integration. When you delete an integration, all time entries associated with this integration will be unassigned from the relevant ClickUp instance.

Manage the ClickUp integration on the Integrations page of the TMetric app

6. Manage external tasks right in TMetric

When you start tracking time in ClickUp, an external task gets created on the Tasks tab in TMetric where you can easily manage it. For any task, you can configure ClickUp time estimates and deadlines to help you predict your project completion more accurately.

 7. Create invoices to bill your clients

Once you finish working on a project, you need to invoice your client. TMetric allows you to manage this process in two ways: either to mark the time as invoiced or create an invoice and send it to your client to get paid on time.
