Under the Project Times menu group (only under ZEP Compact & Professional) you will find an overview of the times that an employee has booked on projects. You can evaluate these, view the history of the times and view the progress.

Project time report

This report is available under Employees > Administration > [Employee name] > Project times > Project time report and under Employees > Evaluations > Project time report.


You can limit the project times of the selected employee by time periods, filter by projects and tasks, and output the times by selected ticket.


If you click Advanced Filter Options , you can filter by activities, billability, billing types and travel criteria depending on the active modules.


If you would like to have the evaluation sent to you (or others) automatically by ZEP at a selected interval, you can select a file format and click Run in background to make the appropriate settings.

Project time history

If a project manager, department head or administrator changes, enters or deletes time recording data for another employee, the changes made are recorded and displayed here.


Select the relevant employee and the change period to review changes to the employee's time data.


After confirming with Execute, you will receive an overview of all project times of the selected employee where there were changes during this period that were not carried out by the selected employee himself.


The following is displayed:

  • the time at which something was changed

  • the person who changed something

  • the type of action (create, change, delete)

  • what was changed

  • old and new values

Project times history

This graphical report shows the availability and the chronological progression of the employee's booked project times.


Availability corresponds to the employee's regular working hours minus public holidays and (with the Absences & Overtime module) approved absences.


You can set an evaluation period and choose whether the booked times can be billed. You can choose between automatic, day, week, month and quarter as scaling.


According to the parameters set, the booked project times are displayed as bars (with different colors for each project) in the desired scale. The different curves can be shown or hidden.


You can also export this evaluation as a CSV file.

If you use the Resource Planning module, this menu item is not displayed under project times, but under Resource Planning.
