  1. Click the Projects menu item on the left sidebar to display the Projects screen.
  2. Locate the project and click it to enter the project.
  3. Click the Tasks or Gantt menu items on left sidebar to display the Tasks screen or Gantt screen.
  4. Locate the task and select it and click Edit Task button the toolbar on the Tasks screen or Gantt screen.
  5. On the Edit Task screen, locate the Actual Duration section and click on the Edit Timelogs button to enter timelogs for the task..
