This article includes:
Setup
Step 1: Go to the TimeLog integration that can be found in the Admin panel under the Integrations tab.
Step 2: Enter your TimeLog information in the fields. There are several different fields you need to fill in.
1. Under Domain enter your TimeLog URL. The URL is unique for each company and should contain the company's name you registered with in TimeLog.
2. Under Account Name enter the name of your company in TimeLog.
3. Under Username enter the email address that you signed up with in TimeLog.
4. Under Password enter the unique password that you received in your email when you first signed up with TimeLog.
5. Under Site Code enter the API code that can be retrieved from TimeLog. If you are unable to find it please contact TimeLog support.
6. Under Reporting username and Reporting password enter your username and password that you received when you first signed up in TimeLog.
After you have entered all of the information required the page will look like this.
Step 3: Click Activate TimeLog
Step 4: Define the links between TimeLog and Forecast projects
User linking
In order for the integration to synchronize time registrations and work for a person, that person must be linked to its corresponding TimeLog user. This is done at the bottom of a users profile page in the section labelled TimeLog.
Synchronization
The integration runs every 15 minutes and synchronizes the following for Forecast projects linked to TimeLog projects:
| Forecast | TimeLog | |
| Task | => | Task |
| Time Registrations | <=> | Work |
Where "=>" denotes one-way synchronization and "<=>" is bidirectional. If a Forecast person is linked to its corresponding TimeLog user and is assigned to a task, then that TimeLog user is allocated to the task.
