SharePoint TeamTime (our time tracking software for SharePoint) has been upgraded with shiny new extensibility features, to make integrating it into your organisation even more seamless:

  • Get raw timesheet data
  • Import and export Projects and Tasks
  • View Approval logs
  • Attach workflows

All you have to do to install or upgrade is download and run the new installer, which will automatically upgrade any existing sites:

What’s in the upgrade

Access to the lists used in the internal workings of TeamTime. Below is a short description of each list. More information is available on the Extensibility Manual Page

Timesheets List

This list is a read-only copy of the main Timesheet list, which allows you direct access to the data your users record. Once a timesheet is approved, its entries will be copied across to this list.

This allows you to generate your own custom reporting and to integrate TeamTime’s data into external applications.

Project and Task lists

You can now view and edit the Project and Task lists directly. Using the Datasheet view on these lists will allow you to bulk import your existing Projects and Tasks, and to quickly edit or extract data.

These lists can also be used with third party list synchronisation software, to keep TeamTime’s data in line with your data in lists elsewhere. Or alternatively workflows can be attached to these lists, and used to push changes elsewhere.

Approvals list

Now you can see who’s approving what and when; especially useful when self-approval is enabled.

You could also attach a workflow to this list to perform actions on approval: For example, letting users know when their timesheets have been approved.
