What is MyDeskTime page and what can I find there?
MyDeskTime section is the first page that opens and the main one to check your stats of the day, week, or month.
This page is always available and visible for every user to keep up with their activities and tracked times.
In this section you will find all the information about:
1. Arrival Time
The time when you have logged in to the desktop app or the start of one of the manual time tracking options. It is also possible to set an automatic start with the computer about which you can read more here. In case you have logged in later than the Working day starts in your settings or schedule, the section will turn red to notify you that the arrival is after the assigned time.
2. Left Time
This is the time of the last tracked activity on the computer. To stop tracking you can log out of the desktop app or turn off the computer in general. If you are tracking the time manually then it is necessary to stop the Web or Mobile timer: or also the Left Time will be the end time of a Calendar event or added Offline time. If you have logged out earlier than the assigned end of the Working day, the window will turn red.
