Reporting time with a mobile phone


The following explains how to use the Mobile time reporting with a mobile phone.

There is an instruction video about the topic here: Mobile time reporting - Tuntinetti






Login

Activating the Mobile time reporting view

You can activate the Mobile time reporting for your company in the Tuntinetti's paid features tab. This can be found in the Basic settings tab.

By checking the Mobile GUI check-box active the Mobile time reporting can be accessed.

Commissioning settings

  1. You get the account information via e-mail from Tuntinetti.
  2. Click the login-link in the e-mail and login with your username and password.
  3. Change the password and proceed to login. More information about the first login can be found in the next section Reporting time with a mobile phone#Setting the commissioning settings with the help of a computer.
    • Now you have a working account to the web browser version of Tuntinetti.
  4. Go to http://www.tuntinetti.fi/Mobiiliseuranta with your phone's internet browser.
  5. Login with your username and password.
  6. The application asks: "Remember me?" Choose "Yes" so you don't have to write your information everytime you want to login.

    (This works with iOS and Android devices. If you are using a Windows Phone, you need to install a different web browser. For example Opera.) An additional function is being worked on to have the Windows Phone's Explorer to remember usernames. We will inform about it later.

    Turn off "Remember me" -function

    If you want to log in without saving your username and password, you can un-check the "remember me"-check-box and the system will not remember your account. The "Remember me"-function will be turned off for good after you have logged in like this once.
  7. Add the page to your bookmarks and add it to your phone's home screen.
    • Apple: Open the menu from the footer and choose "Add to Home Screen".
    • Windows Phone: Open the web browser's settings from the footer and select "Pin to start".
    • Android: Open the web browser's settings from the top part of the screen and select "Add to Home Screen".
  8. Now move the icon somewhere where you can easily find it!
Now you have an icon on your phone's home screen that leads you straight to the Mobile time reporting service.

Setting the commissioning settings with the help of a computer

  1. Copy the password in the e-mail with the copy-function.
  2. Open the login page by clicking the link in the e-mail.
  3. Write your e-mail address in the username-field.
  4. Paste the password that you copied in the password-field and login.
  5. The system needs to have the password entered again. You can paste it again.
  6. Replace the password with your own and confirm it. Then login.
Notice that the first login can be easier with a computer. The password is easier to copy and paste with a computer's user interface. Though a computer is not necessary and it can be done with a phone also.

More than one project on a work day

  1. Stamp yourself in the first project normally.

If your workplace don't use the stamping functions or you forgot to stamp yourself in or out, you can enter your work time separately by day like in the previous instruction Reporting time with a mobile phone#Time reporting.

Selecting a customer, a task and expenses

  • If your project has multiple customers, you can select the desired customer in the "Customers" -drop-downlist.
  • If you are performing task defined by your employer, you should choose the task in the "Tasks" -drop-downlist.
  • If the project has different expenses, you can select them in the "Expenses" -drop-downlist. 


The selected project's most important expenses are pre-selected for you and more expenses can be viewed by clicking the "Add compensation" -button.

Some expenses need to have descriptions, for example order number. Your employer will instruct you about these expenses.

If obligatory information is missing, the program informs you and highlights the sections that need to be entered with a red color.
