Projects are created with a "General" work package by default. However, project managers might need employees to log times to activities, tasks or deliverables that are more specific to the project.
Project managers can add new work packages to their projects by following these steps:
Go to the Projects tab on the main menu.
Click on the name of the project you want to add work packages to.
Click New work package
A 'New work package' modal appears.Enter the relevant details for the work package:
Name
Description (optional) - Up to 200 characters
Start date and End date - Select the dates
Code (optional)
Budget (optional) - You can't amend the currency, only enter a new amount.
Notes (optional) - Up too 1000 characters
Click on Save.
Employees of the project will now be able to log time to the new work package on their project's timesheets.
📎NOTE: This work package will be available to the project's employees starting the day you set as the start date until the selected end date.
