Clockwork can be used straight away after the installation and doesn’t require any configuration. However, you might want to consider some of the basic configurations that allow you to customize Clockwork to the way your teams work:
Set Clockwork as the Time tracking provider in Jira to override the native Jira Time Tracking UI with the Clockwork screens that offer more capabilities.
Activate Clockwork on projects - select the projects where you’d like to use Clockwork.
Time tracking modes - choose how you want your teams to track time. If you pick a time tracking mode that includes Automatic Time Tracking, you must also set up Active Statuses.
Working hours - set a global work schedule. If individual users have their own work schedules, you can set them up in the Working Hours tab or let users to do it themselves.
Manage permissions - set up your teams' permissions for who can view and edit working hours, who can log work on behalf of others, and who can set budgeting costs and rates.
For a more advanced setup, see the articles below:
Worklogs settings - define your worklog attributes, make the description mandatory, or prevent users from logging time in the past or future. 👉 See our short video
Teams - set up your Teams for easier filtering on Timesheets and reports.
Internal Activities - define which tasks should be treated as Internal (non-project related work such as daily standups, weekly meetings, admin, or breaks).
Billing periods - configure the timeframes for your billing cycle and define when users shouldn’t be permitted to add, edit or remove worklogs.
Costs & rates tracking - assign permissions, set up hourly costs and rates for users, and get an overview of project costs and revenue.
