To access the My Account Settings page:
- Click on the round User icon in the upper right corner and select My Account.
- Navigate to the My Account Settings page.
The My Account Settings page contains access to the following personal settings:
- Session Duration: This setting lets individuals choose how long to remain logged in. Options include
- 30 seconds (Good for shared computers with quick in/out punches.)
- 5 minutes (Good for shared computers where longer access times are typical, like when users need to record long work notes.)
- 20 minutes (Good for people who use Timesheets.com at their own desks and may have other tasks beyond punching the clock.)
- 7 days (Good for people who want to remain logged in for long periods on their personal devices.)
- Login Landing Page Preference – this setting lets users choose which page they see first when they log in. For example, some companies prefer users to see the latest message board information upon logging in. Note: if it’s important that users see a specific page when logging in, this setting should be used in conjunction with a shorter Session Duration, such as 20 minutes or less. This ensures the user always has to login to access their account. If the Session Duration is set to 7 days, users can return to the website without logging in, and so they won’t see their desired login page preference.
- Default list item settings – These settings allow users to set preselected list item choices when entering time and expenses
- Email address (which is also your login username)
- SMS (usually your cellphone) number for use with the notifications
- Calendar and timer settings
- Time and language preferences
- Notifications
If you’re an account administrator, you’ll also have access to a setting that allows you set the frequency for an automated status report email.
