Timekeeping for Production Planning Tutorials

Overview

The Mobile App can be used to manage production planning tasks like the Tracker app.

The same set of settings are used for the Mobile and Tracker app. If features are disabled, they are not displayed (i.e. if a feature is explained here, and not on your interface, there is a setting for it).

💡These tutorials explain how to capture timekeeping and related tasks for production planning using the mobile app.

When enabled, these features appear under Timekeeping and not under Production.
