    3. the timer begins running.

  3. Click on Stop timer when you have finished working on the ticket. The Add time entry page is displayed with the values in the Started and Time spent fields inserted:

  4. Fill in the rest of the details and click Save. (see Adding a Time Entry to a Ticket for details of the fields available).

    5. The time entry is added to the Time tracking tab in the ticket page
