What to include
Four things, every time.
The date and time matter more than people expect. They let us line your report up
against what the system did.
What helps even more
One concrete example
One concrete example
One person, one date, one project, one number you expected. That beats “the totals
are about an hour out” every time.
The exact message
The exact message
Copy the wording, or send a screenshot. TimeTracker’s messages name their reason,
so the sentence usually points straight at the cause.
Who is affected
Who is affected
Just you, one team, or everyone? “Everyone lost it at once” and “only I lost it”
have completely different causes.
The roles involved
The roles involved
Your role, and the role of anyone else in the story. Most access questions resolve
to a role or a scope.

A good example
Workspace: Northwind Studio
Expected: Priya (Project Manager) should see Ana’s timesheet in her approval
queue.
Happened: Ana’s week for 21–27 July is not in Priya’s queue. Priya can see
Sarah’s and Jonas’s fine.
When: Noticed Monday 28 July at about 09:30 UK time.
Already tried: Reloaded, checked Priya holds time.approve. Ana is a
contractor on the Fenwick Legal project only.
That email contains its own answer – Ana shares no project with Priya, so she is
outside Priya’s supervision scope – and we can confirm
it in one reply.

If they can and you cannot, it is your role or your scope. If nobody can, it is an
app switch or the plan.
Billing questions
Plan, payment and invoice questions for your own subscription go to the same address. Include your workspace name and, if it is about a charge, the date and amount. Payments run through our merchant of record, so your card statement may show their name rather than ours. See payment methods and receipts.Reporting a bug
Anything where the numbers disagree is worth reporting even if you have a workaround. TimeTracker is a system of record for time and money, and a wrong number matters. Tell us:- Which two things disagree, and by how much
- The exact records involved
- Whether it reproduces every time
Please do not send
- Passwords. We never need one.
- Client contact details you do not need to share to explain the problem.
Suggestions
Ideas, missing features and shortcuts you wish existed all go to the same address. Say what you were trying to do, not only what you want built – the underlying job is the useful part.Related guides
