How to turn Notion into a Time Tracking machine

[@anastolen]

A client recommended me to watch your videos, and you really have taught me more than all the courses I have purchased. Thank you so much!

[@DanielCanosa]

Wow, thank you!

[@anastolen]

@@DanielCanosa No, thanks to you, I would like to know if your course comes with subtitles in Spanish, I would be interested in buying it. Do you have that option?

[@TheNotionCoach]

Really like this approach! Went back and forth on if Time entries should be a separate database, this is a super clean structure! 🤩

I've been using time tracking on Notion for almost a year now, and it's been extremely useful. The idea of having a button to start and stop the tracking process is even more helpful. Thank you for the great content. I always learn new things that are gems and useful. Keep it up! Also, I have a request. Could you create a video that explains the process of designing a system for a company or startup? I'm interested in doing strategic planning work like this. Thank you so much for your amazing work!

just added this to my YT ideas database! thanks

[@jillmetcalfe1972]

Very clever. Will be adding this to my client tasks dashboard.

[@williampegram]

Really good approach as others have also said. I have implemented it into my Task bata base & it works great! Muchas gracias Daniel. Eres un crack!

I have wanted an integrated method to track time in my Notion setup. I had tried to use Toggl and found it to be more trouble than it was worth, so I gave up on it. I'll try your method now. It looks like it will work perfectly for what I need.

[@DanielCanosa]

I've been there too! Hope this method helps

Very useful, thank you!

Great video!!

Hey Dani, thanks for this video! One question, what if I already have an existing database of tasks. Can I still integrate the time log to that database or does it need a completely new database?

I cannot get that last formula for the person roll up to work, I’ve checked it multiple times but it won’t allow me to save it… 99% likely user error, but not sure what to do

This doesn't work for parent/child task types or task-batching for single or multiple related projects. As a writer, a lot of task types get mixed throughout various stages of product creation......as an Indie Author / Business Owner, even more of them do. I'd explain why this doesn't work, but I tried for an hour to make it short and concise, lol.......I just deleted and did the short version here. Ultimately, many of us do need multiple same-name tasks open at the same time, and the way this is set up, it auto-closes all of the same-name items. The workaround (creating multiple buttons), or the other workaround (creating a crap ton of tags), doesn't fix the issue, especially because Notion doesn't (and probably won't) ever include an automatable button that self-references a table to itself for filtering purposes. Notion allows it to reference related databases, but not itself, not even if you create a self-ref property. You have to manually enter that info. Would have worked, but that isn't a feature, so it doesn't. I may keep my version of your setup here, what with its crap-ton of templates & buttons that have to be manually updated when you create a new book or different type of task.....until I find another solution. Anyway, this was closer to what I've been trying to do than most my other attempts or videos I've watched, lol.

Whats the end of the custom formula for who's working? I cant make it out and you just say 'use this right here or it doesnt work'.....lol
