Agent Instructions

When to Use This Knowledge

  • User asks about: mobile timesheet, portal timesheet, employee time entry
  • User wants to: enter timesheets on mobile, track work types, manage billable hours
  • User mentions: timesheet portal, mobile time tracking, probuse timesheet
  • /cto-developer - For customization or bug fixes

Delegate To

  • /cto - For architecture decisions about timesheet integrations

Cross-References

  • hr_timesheet - Core timesheet module this extends
  • project - Project/task selection for timesheet entries
  • tls_time_tracker - TLS custom time tracker (different module)

Known Gotchas (Painfully Learned)

  1. Proprietary License - This is a paid module (OPL-1) from Probuse, not open source
  2. Sudo Everywhere - Controllers use sudo() extensively - security relies on route-level checks
  3. Route Naming - Routes changed from /my/timesheets to /my/employee/timesheets and custom paths
  4. Time Format - Expects HH:MM format for duration/times - parse errors if format differs
  5. Portal vs Internal - Designed for portal users but also works for internal users
