The diagram below shows how Time 2.0 Service uses the time entries you enter on the Daily Time Entry
screen to calculate a time summary for the active date. This same principal applies
to all Time 2.0 products including out extensive line of mobile time
tracking clients.

Active Date |
The active date is displayed at the top of the Time Entries and Time Summary screens. It is the date
to which you create time summaries for. The active date can be changed to any date in the future or in the past. By default,
the active date is set to the current date when you first access the system.

Category |
A category is the Time 2.0 Service's means of applying context
to time utilization. The Time 2.0 Service offers two types of
categories. The first type of category called an account category is created at the
account level. These categories are available to all users in a
given account. The second type of category called a personal category is created at the
user level. These categories are only available to a given
user. This arrangement allows individuals and organizations to
maintain their own distinct categories.&nbps; The Time 2.0 Service recommends
that you use a dot-delimited category naming pattern (a.b.c).

Time Entry |
A time entry is the Time 2.0 Service's means of capturing time
utilization information. To track time, a user creates a time
entry at the start of a trackable activity. For instance,
let's say I was working on project A but am now switching to
project B, I would create a time entry in the Time 2.0 Service through
the Time Entry page that states that I "transitioned" to
Project A at a given time. The time entry allows me to capture a
description of what I was doing while applying time to a given
category.
