I had a couple of questions regarding the new Time Keeping tool within Asana. Is there a way to get the Estimated and Actual Hours fields to rollup to the project level for project level reporting?

Also, when I export a project, the Estimated time exports, but the Actual time does not. Why would one of the fields not export?

I also don’t see the sum at the bottom of each section of tasks for the Actual time field. I do for the Estimated time field just not for the Actual time field.

Any help would be much appreciated!

@anon54952607,

Time tracking is rolling out in several phases and then follow-ups. Like you, I’ve found some challenges as shown here:

> [@New! Track time on your Tasks in Asana stopwatch](https://forum.asana.com/t/new-track-time-on-your-tasks-in-asana/257467/62):
>
> A client would like to see in a project (Dashboard, sum, whatever) accumulated time by Assignee. I don’t see how that’s possible now, and don’t see in the video and post about the three releases when it’s expected. See below for a more detailed explanation… (See also this post above, with screenshot, for a related question: [New! Track time on your Tasks in Asana stopwatch - #60 by Matheus\_Vaz](https://forum.asana.com/t/new-track-time-on-your-tasks-in-asana/257467/60)) I’ll use this example project to explain the issues: Related to @anon27973992’s post, in Dashboard…

That corroborates your experience, I think.

One strategy might be to see how the releases unfold before trying to make heavy use of this new feature; that’s what I’m recommending for now.

@Larry_Berger_lpb,

Thank you for your response. Yes, it is very much the same experience for me as what you detailed. I agree that it may be worth holding off on heavy use until the final release. Thanks for the insight and sanity check to make sure I wasn’t just doing something wrong!
