Adding Time Types to Ticket Types

Time Types categorize tracked time and help technicians, project managers, and team members track their actual time for resource management. Users who perform the work indicate what type of time they are tracking.

Prerequisites

Before adding a Time Type to a Ticket Type, at least one Time Type and one Ticket Type must exist in the environment. See the related articles for details on configuring these attributes.
