Understanding the day view

The Day View displays all hours recorded for a single day - grouped by project and task. Each entry shows:

What you'll get:

  • check Project and task name
  • check Time recorded
  • check Notes or descriptions

Adding a new time entry

  • check Project and task name
  • check Time recorded
  • check Notes or descriptions

Your entry now appears on the Day View timeline, colour-coded by project.

Tip: If you work across multiple projects, use the project filter above the timeline to focus on one client or team.

Tracking time with the built-in timer

Instead of entering hours manually, you can use the built-in timer:

  • check Click Start Timer when you begin a task.
  • check Ponyrider will automatically record elapsed time.
  • check Click Stop Timer when finished.
  • check Review or edit the entry before saving it.

Timers continue running even if you navigate away from the Day View (you’ll see a small active timer indicator in the top navigation bar).

Good to know: Only one timer can run at a time per user to maintain accurate logs.

Editing or deleting an entry

  • check Hover over any entry and click the edit (✏️) icon.
  • check Update your time, note, or project.
  • check To delete, click the trash (🗑️) icon in the same menu.

Your entry now appears on the Day View timeline, colour-coded by project.

Switching to Week View

Click the “Week View” toggle at the top right to see a summary of all logged hours by day.

This helps you review weekly totals or confirm you’ve submitted all timesheets on time.

Timers continue running even if you navigate away from the Day View (you’ll see a small active timer indicator in the top navigation bar).

Troubleshooting

Can’t start a timer?

  • Make sure you don’t have another timer running.
  • Refresh your browser if you recently updated your project list.

Accidentally logged time to the wrong project?
