Outlook Integration

The latest Outlook integration introduces a streamlined approach to time registration by connecting Outlook calendar events directly with TimeLog. This enhancement is designed to reduce manual entry, improve accuracy, and support efficient time tracking across platforms. Get an overview of the key features that the integration provides: 

Seamless Login and Broad Compatibility

Users can now log in using their existing company credentials through Single Sign-On (SSO), eliminating the need for separate login details. The integration is compatible with Outlook on Mac, the web, and the new desktop version. Mobile support is not yet available.

Smarter Time Registration from Outlook

When a meeting is opened in Outlook, users can access a side panel to link the event to a customer, project, or task in TimeLog. The integration also supports mapping to specific tasks or absence codes, which are automatically posted to the time registration system. Key meeting details—such as start date, time, and title—are pre-filled in the registration form to streamline the process.

Support for Recurring and Future Events

Recurring meetings are handled efficiently by applying the same registration settings across all instances in the series. For future events, time registrations are created automatically at midnight before the scheduled workday begins, ensuring timely and consistent tracking.

Accurate and Flexible Time Tracking

The integration uses one-way synchronization to transfer calendar events to the timesheet. Any changes made in Outlook are instantly reflected in TimeLog, maintaining up-to-date records. The system calculates event duration automatically, while still allowing users to adjust the actual time spent—supporting accurate billing and project reporting.
