This article applies to legacy Work Orders in UpKeep.
In the current design of legacy Work Orders, you can log time for technicians either manually or by using the timer button. Occasionally, too much time may be logged, and adjustments are needed.
The steps to edit or delete time entries depend on how the time was originally recorded. See the detailed instructions below to make the necessary corrections.
🔧 Note: Time logged through the labor box cannot be edited directly. You’ll need to delete the entry and re-add it with the correct time.
How to Edit time that was added via the Time or Timer option
Steps:
You will need to navigate to the work order and open it
Hover over the blue time, and you will see an option that says "edit time" click on the blue time and edit the time that was logged
When done, click the blue check mark, to save the time logged, and you will not see the correct time displayed.
How to Delete time logged under Labor
Steps:
You will need to navigate to the work order and open it
Under Labor click the View Full time log
Locate the persons name and click the down arrow next to their name, and then click the 3 dots next to the time added and click Delete.
What you will see now is a red modified and negative number, and a green added number. This is the tracking history, simply it shows you that time was added and removed.
