Overview

What TymzUp helps you do

TymzUp is designed to help you keep work organized, capture time consistently, and review it without unnecessary overhead.

Projects

Organize work by project

Create projects for clients, internal work, admin time, or any category you need to track separately.

Tasks

Add tasks or list items when useful

Use tasks only when they make reports clearer or help your team stay consistent.

Time Entry

Log time as work happens

Save hours against projects and optional tasks, with notes that make the work easier to review later.

Review

Review time by week or date range

Use the weekly view and reports to confirm entries, spot gaps, and keep totals accurate.

Reports

Run reports for review, export, or billing support

Filter by dates, projects, and tasks so you can validate work and support downstream reporting needs.

App Layout

How TymzUp is organized

Most new users only need to understand four areas to get comfortable in the app.

Dashboard

Summary view and weekly awareness

Use the dashboard for a quick picture of what has been logged and what needs attention this week.

Time Entry

Where users record work

This is the main place to save hours, choose a project, add an optional task, and include notes.

Reports

Where users review and export time

Use reports to review activity by date range, project, and task and prepare time for sharing or export.

Settings

Where setup and management happen

Company details, users, projects, lists, and account-level setup all live in Settings.

First 15 Minutes

Your first 15 minutes in TymzUp

  1. Review company settings.
  2. Create your first project.
  3. Add a few task categories if needed.
  4. Save your first time entry.
  5. Run a report to confirm everything is working.
Simple Path

Start simple, then refine

You do not need a full system before you begin. Most teams can start with one clear project, optional task categories, one saved entry, and a report check to confirm the workflow end to end.

User Types

Choose the setup that fits you

The best starting setup depends on how you plan to use TymzUp. Keep it simple enough to start logging time right away.

Solo Consultant

Start with one client project

  • Create one client project first.
  • Add simple tasks only if needed.
  • Start logging time immediately.
  • Use reports to review billable work.
Small Team

Standardize only what you need

  • Confirm company settings.
  • Add team members.
  • Create shared projects.
  • Standardize tasks only if needed before everyone starts logging time.
Internal Use

Track where time is going

  • Create projects for admin, operations, and client work.
  • Keep setup simple at first.
  • Use reports to understand where time is going.
Best Practices

Keep the setup clean from the start

  • Start with a few clear projects.
  • Add tasks only when they improve reporting.
  • Use notes when work needs context.
  • Review reports early so your setup stays clean.

Start with one project, then save one entry

Start with your first project, then save one time entry so you can see the workflow end to end.
