In July 2026, Raken updated the way time tracking works across the platform. This article explains what changed, where everything moved, and how to get back up to speed quickly.
What Changed in Time Tracking?
Raken's time tracking received a significant update in July 2026. The goal: make time entry faster, more flexible, and consistent across web and mobile. Time cards are now a first-class feature with their own dedicated space — separate from Daily Logs.
Where Did Everything Go?
Time Cards moved to the Time tab
Time cards are no longer in Daily Logs. They now live in the global Time tab in the left navigation on web, or the Time icon in the bottom nav on mobile.
Before the Update | After the Update |
Projects > Daily Logs > Time Cards | Time (global left nav) > Time Cards |
Weekly totals visible on each time card entry | Time > Time Cards > Summary tab |
Pay type set inline during entry | Ellipsis (...) on saved time card > Add pay type |
Classification set inline during entry | Ellipsis (...) on saved time card > Add classification |
Payroll note added inline | Ellipsis (...) on saved time card > Add payroll note |
Work Logs stayed in Daily Logs
Work Logs, Notes, Photos, Survey, and Attachments are still in Projects > Daily Logs — nothing moved there.
Weekly totals moved to the Summary tab
You won't see a running weekly total on individual time card entries anymore. To see pay period totals per employee broken down by RT, OT, and Total:
Web: Time > Time Cards > Summary
Mobile: Time > Summary tab
What's New
Time tab in global nav — access all time cards across all projects from one place, not just within a project
Four views on web — Summary, Grid, Entries, and Timesheets. Each shows your time data differently depending on what you need.
My Time — employees can view and manage their own time cards without seeing the whole team's data
Review tab — Issues, Photo ID, Clock questions, and Per Diem all in one place (Time > Review)
Copy time cards — copy a time card to the next day with one click (new time cards created after July 2, 2026 only — see FAQ below)
What Stayed the Same
Work Logs, Notes, Photos, Survey, and Attachments are still in Daily Logs
Daily report signing, distribution, and PDF export are unchanged
Payroll exports (CSV, Timesheets) are still available — now at Time > Time Cards > Timesheets
All existing time card data is preserved — nothing was deleted
Integrations (Sage, QBO, QBD, Foundation, etc.) continue to work the same way
Frequently Asked Questions
I can't find my time cards — where did they go?
Click Time in the left navigation on web, or the Time icon in the bottom nav on mobile. Your time cards are there under the Entries or Summary tabs.
Why can't I copy a time card from before July 2, 2026?
Time cards created before the July 2026 update are an older format and cannot be copied — this is expected. The copy feature works on all new time cards going forward. For past entries you need to copy, create a new time card manually.
Why is the project field grayed out on some time cards?
Time cards created via the Clock feature (employees punching in/out) have their project field locked after creation — by design. The project is tied to the punch at clock-in. To fix a wrong-project entry, delete the time card and have the employee re-enter on the correct project.
The QTY number in Daily Logs looks wrong — it used to show the number of workers.
QTY now reflects the total number of individual time card entries, not the number of employees. Each change in cost code, classification, or pay type creates a separate entry. A crew of 12 with 3 splits each will show QTY=36. Click into the time card to see the actual worker count and total hours.
Where do I find GPS punch locations?
To see where a specific employee clocked in or out on a given day, go to Projects > [Project] > Production > Map. Select the date using the date picker, then click the employee's name in the right-hand panel to see their individual clock events with location details.
For geofence violations, go to Time > Review > Issues.
Can I go back to the old time tracking experience?
The update applies to all accounts — there is no option to revert. If your team is having trouble finding things, we're happy to walk you through the new layout over the phone.
