Question

The default date in the Single Time Activity form is the last date used rather than the current date stated in the help. How can I make it the current date?

Welcome to the Community, tim39.

I’d be glad to assist you in setting up the date on your employee’s time tracker.

Here’s how:
 

  1. Click on the Plus icon (+), located on the toolbar.
  2. Under Employees column, select Single Time Activity.
  3. Hover on the Date box, then click the Calendar icon.
  4. Choose the date that you wanted to be applied in the form.

Thanks for that Stephanie.  I get that, but that's not what I was actually asking.

 

Each time I want to enter a "Single Time Activity", the date shown in the date field is the last date that was entered.  That is, for a time activity undertaken the previous week for example.  In the help section, a note states that "the current date is automatically entered on the date field".

 

This is not my experience.  The date is not automatically changed to the current date; which would be far more useful for me when entering times each day as I currently do.

I appreciate the complete details about your concern, @tim39.

 

Let's ensure your automation preference isn't set to pre-fill forms with previously entered content. I can guide you on how to do it.

  1. Go to the Gear Icon.
  2. Choose Account and Settings.
  3. Select the Advanced menu.
  4. Scroll down to the Automation section.
  5. Click the Pencil icon.
  6. Turn off the Pre-fill forms with the previously entered content feature.
  7. Click the Save button.
  8. Hit Done.
