Create time cards to log time from your mobile application for the work you have
done.

## Before you begin

Role required: timecard_user

## About this task

The Allow time card reporting on field on the [project form](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/mLph4yPyxAMYWLRihvI6yQ "Define important aspects of your Agile, Waterfall, or Hybrid project such as the duration, estimated cost, and net value to your organization to efficiently track the project's progress.") determines the level at which time cards for the project
tasks can be created. For example, at the project level, if a user is assigned to
multiple tasks in a project, then the time spent on all the tasks is recorded under
one time card only; and at the project task level, separate time cards are created
corresponding to each planned task.

## Procedure

2. Open a time sheet from the Time Sheets tab.
3. Tap the action icon.
4. Add task-related or non-task related time cards.
