7pace Timetracker has a *Timesheet *view for tracking and editing time. To access this view, click **Apps **> **Timetracker **>** Timesheet**. The Timesheet view lets you enter time for a week and has several keyboard shortcuts that make time entry quicker.

> 📝 **Note**: Timesheet view is limited to the logged-in user. It cannot be used to view or report on worklogs entered by other users. To report on worklogs from multiple users, see the [Times Explorer view](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/7TFJ/pages/1920729127).

### Displayed information

Until you enter time for a week, the Timesheet view will be blank and display a button in the upper right corner, **Add Time**. Click the button to log work; after a single log has been added, the Timesheet view will display a grid for all work logged in that week. Each row on the grid represents an issue to which you have logged work, with the time for that issue displayed under each day.

## Timesheet tools

Timesheet view includes several tools for sorting, filtering, and reporting on worklogs. These tools are all located at the upper right of the screen and include: 

- **Total time** - the total time for all worklogs for the week is displayed above the data grid.
- **Time period** - The date range for the visible timesheet.
- **Current Week** - Click to jump to the timesheet for the current week.
- **Show items** - Display items from previous time periods in the current timesheet view. See **Show items** below for more information.   
:note: **Note**: This does not add the time logged in previous worklogs to the current timesheet display and does not change the totals for work items, days, or the current time period.
- **Add Time** - Click to add a new worklog.

Additionally, you can also check time summed up from many cells by highlighting them by dragging a cursor through the cells:

## Show items

The **Show items** menu allows you to list worklogs from previous timesheets to the current view; this is a convenient way to add additional worklogs to work items without needing to search for them individually. The Show items menu has three options:

- **Items hierarchy** - switch this toggle on to see nesting of the work items.
- **Assigned to me** - Display work items assigned to the current user even if they have not had worklogs added within the selected period of time.
- **Recently tracked on** - Display only work items that have had worklogs added within the period of time selected under **Timeframe**.
  - **From previous week** - Display work items with time logged in the week previous.
  - **From previous two weeks** - Display work items with time logged in the two weeks previous.
  - **From previous month** - Display work items with time logged in the four weeks previous.

> 📝 **Note**: Activating options from the **Show items** menu only adds those work items to the list of items on the left side of the Timesheet view. It does not add the time logged in previous weeks to the total column, or to daily or weekly totals.

> ⚠️ **Warning**: Turning on **Show items** will only display seven (7) additional work items. This is due to an Atlassian limitation.
