Time tracking tools
Learn how OpenTrain projects use time tracking tools and where to find setup instructions for the tool assigned to you.
Some OpenTrain projects use an external time tracking tool to record the time you spend on training and project work. The tool and project you should use appear in an assigned Project To-do.
How setup works
Section titled “How setup works”Open the assigned Project To-do
Open the active job and select Project To-dos. The setup card identifies the required provider and shows your current connection status.
Follow the provider guide
Use the setup guide linked from the card. Provider guides explain where the invitation arrives, which application to install, and how OpenTrain verifies the connection.
Return to OpenTrain
After completing the provider steps, return to the Project To-do and select its check or verification action.

Section titled “Before tracking project time”- Confirm that you selected the correct project in the tracking tool.
- Start the timer when you begin the activity covered by your project instructions.
- Stop the timer when you finish that activity or take a non-working break.
- Review the monitoring notice shown for your project before you start tracking.
- Follow the payment and time-submission terms shown in your OpenTrain contract and project instructions.
If you forget to start a timer or select the wrong project, stop and message the project team with the date, approximate times, and activity. Do not inflate a later timer or add manual time unless the project team explicitly tells you to.
