Trackops offers unique features for tracking time and distance using the Trackops Mobile App. Both tracked time and distance can be populated while submitting time and expenses from within the mobile app.

The easiest way to access time and distance tracking is to open the Trackops Mobile App and navigate to the login screen. From here, tap the Timers & Trackers icon in the top right corner of the screen:

Note: If there are currently active running trackers, the Timers & Trackers icon will be animated.

Expensing Timers & Trackers 

Now that you've generated a timer or tracker, the next step is to use that tracker while submitting expenses. Once you've logged in to the Trackops Mobile App, navigate to the Expenses tab of the mobile app to access your expense entries, review unused trackers, and create new expense entries.

   

From here, you'll also be able to access your time and distance trackers by using the Timers & Trackers button at the top of the screen.

To create a new expense entry, click the + button in the top right of the app.  From here, you can apply new time and/or expense items to your entry.

   

While adding time and/or expenses to your entries, any unused trackers will appear in the dropdown (see above screenshot).  By selecting the tracker, the appropriate quantity will be automatically applied to the item.  

After submitting the expense entries, the used timers and trackers will be removed from your trackers list to avoid accidental reuse.
