Log Time for Events and Custom Tasks

TeamBoard TimePlanner allows users to log time not only for Jira tasks but also for specific events and custom tasks, such as meetings, workshops, or other non-standard activities. These activities are separate from Jira issues and can only be created or managed within the TimePlanner app.

You can log time for events or custom tasks using Calendar View, List View, or the Start Timer feature.
