Absolutely agree. This is an easy feature in other tools like Toggl, I don't see why it can't be added to clickup. We need to be able to start tracking time and assign it to a space or folder, and leave notes on task description if needed. Tracking only in tasks is a massive waste of time. Some tasks take two seconds (or as a freelance Project manager, my work is often spent MAKING the task, so I need to be able track that work time in my "operations" space just like I do in Toggl). This needs to be a top priority feature!

I spent about an hour trying to figure out how to turn this on, thinking before realizing that it wasn't. Like many others here, I use my space for projects, and I need to track how much time I spend on the whole project; it doesn't matter so much how much I spend on each task, and as many tasks are interrelated, it would be both tedious and artificial to track the time that way. With the present options, there is a lot of time lost starting and stopping to track, this makes the process efficient. It would be much better if I could just start working in a space or on a list and hit "start."

Agreed. This is a must-have feature for time management and most PM platforms I've come across have multi-level time tracking. Needing to add time against individual tasks is incredibly laborious and time can be better spent logging it against lists or folders.

I've found a useful feature in other platforms like Streamtime and Resource Guru is being able to log time using agile workflow methods in views very similar to ClickUp's Workload View.

Planning my team's time more efficiently using this method will be a huuuuuuge upgrade to the way ClickUp manages time. Right now, if adding time manually using the toolbar's time tracker, I can only add time to a task. The search ignores spaces, folders, and lists completely which isn't intuitive at all considering the new "Universal Search" being rolled out across the platform.

Lastly, I also recently discovered after switching from Toggl to ClickUp's native timer that billable time tracking on the paid Unlimited plan is capped to a certain number of entries (100 entries I believe) and I had to upgrade my plan mid-project simply to continue to add time and manage my teams billable hours.

I'm looking forward to the next big update to ClickUp's time-tracking functionality, hopefully with fewer limitations.

Adding to this much needed feature, I would love to be able to set somewhere the hourly labour cost rate which automatically convert tracked time in money amount. So I would know how much a project is costing to my company in real time. Comparing this data with the agreed budget with the client, it would immediately give me the idea if our profit is still there or if we are close (or even below) the break even point. This would eventually allow us to request extra budget or at least be aware to ask for more budget on similar project when they'll occur again in the future.

I have similar type of business - we need the same structure of roll up. Ideally, I can add a filter selecting a specific user, that is then assigned to folders/lists (NOT TASKS!) - then roll up and aggregate the time tracking for this. I can actually build the roll up using a dashboard, but I want to build it dynamically, so I assign projects/customers = list/folders to specific individuals

Cmon ClickUp, this can't be much harder than all of the fancy 3.0 features you just rolled out.

Click up is virtually unusable for timetracking. We need to be able to roll time tracking up to folders and lists

I have no issue with times to tasks but really need to be able to filter by either task or folder or staff member to get decent reports. I reallly need to know how many hours we put into a Folder each period

Please make this happen!

I have a client who would really like to be able to track time to a list, right now we have to create a view that only shows "time tracking" tasks for the project and it is very complicated and messy!
