Server
The first time you log into Pacific Time, you will need to connect to the system in the cloud.

What's My Server?

The Server is in your company’s Pacific Timesheet system name, which is part of the system URL you use in a browser. It looks something like:

Your server would be in the place of mycompany.

Enter your login name and password.

Forgot Password Support

To set your password, tap on Forgot Password. 

On the Request Password page, enter your login name, email address or employee ID and a temporary password will be emailed to you

If you have a single sign-on, you’ll need to take a couple of steps as a first-time user. To review these steps now go to Single Sign-On Users Login Instructions at the end of this tutorial.

Once logged in, on the main screen, you can do anything you need with one or two taps.

Tap Timesheet to show your main timesheet page:

The Percent Allocation Timesheet is simple and easy to use. Note that on both sides of the time period, in this case Feb 12 - Feb 18, you have time period forward and back buttons.  

Adding new projects is easy. Just tap the Plus (+) button: 

Then, just complete the details of your work entry:

You can search for projects, tasks or other work items by tapping on search and typing into the search box. A filtered list of work items will be returned as you type. To select, tap its name, and you will be returned to the time entry details page. 

When your time entry is complete, tap "Okay" and you'll be returned to the Timesheet page.

Add Leave

If you have scheduled leave it will already appear in your timesheet. To add new leave, tap the plus (+) button, tap Leave to add a leave row. Select your leave pay code and tap Okay.

Tap the gear icon in the upper right to move back and forth between the "Week View" and "Day View." As with the laptop/desktop application, the system remembers your last view of your timesheet.
