I have a question about reporting on time tracking in Asana: is it possible to report on time spent by task? It can be done by project and custom field, but not by task. Ideally I would like to know the total time spent by task, when it was logged, and by whom. I know Asana is capturing this information, but I don’t know how I can access it. ---

I am sure why you say it is not possible. Native time tracking does exactly this. And a custom field allows you to track PER task already (you don’t have the details indeed) ---

@anon65738400 I guess I should make a feature request? Are you aware of one already? ---

Yes there are a slew of time tracking requests in the Product Feedback forum. I’ve considered consolidating all of them into one but haven’t found the time. ---

Hi @anon65738400 and @TrevorWiser the time tracking custom field (+timeyourwork) will do the time tracking and you can then reporting on total time by Assignee in the dashboard over the last x days ---

Correct but as soon as you add the Assignee filter to the reporting chart, you lose the functionality to click-through the chart to a list of the tasks that meet the criteria. We need a list of tasks that have had time added to them by an assignee (or Time Added By field) for a specific day. I’ve also tried a workaround via Saved Search but there is no Time Entered Date field on save search panels the way there is in a Reporting dashbaord. ---

Are there any updates on this? We are considering moving to Asana, but I need a list of tasks with time logged last month by project for invoicing. The reporting dashboard has these filters for time entry date and who logged time. But search and the list views are missing these filters, which is where we’d get a list of all tasks/invoice line items. Are there any workarounds? ---

Hi @Ben_Daron welcome to the forum - there are the new time tracking fields that are task based: [https://help.asana.com/hc/en-us/articles/14101461379867-Time-Tracking](https://help.asana.com/hc/en-us/articles/14101461379867-Time-Tracking) This is on **Asana [Advanced](https://asana.com/plan/advanced), [Enterprise](https://asana.com/enterprise), and [Enterprise+](https://asana.com/enterprise) tiers, as well as [legacy tiers](https://asana.com/pricing-legacy) Business and Legacy Enterprise.** ---

How do we breakdown how much time a specific assignee has spent on various tasks throughout the week? Seems like you can only see aggregated time by assignee or by project. ---

Hi Erin, inside there you would click on your team member and drop it down it will show you what tasks are making up the workload and in what projects ---

Ah thanks! I don’t see a way to do that though? Screenshot attached. When I click on the little bar chart lines it just goes to the project itself, not tasks. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/asana/original/3X/d/b/db2f19e78f5873d58d129c3a14a5cf653a0ed729.png) ---

Oh got it we no longer have access to that since we are only on a business plan so I was trying to work around it with the native time tracking custom field. ---

You could use that graph you set up but change the reporting from projects to tasks ---

@Danielle-GenD - thanks for all your help. Other than going task by task and writing down estimated vs. actual for every assignee, I don’t see an option for a breakdown of that information. I’ve clicked an assignee to see ALL the tasks they logged time to, but I need to report on every one of those tasks compared to every one of those tasks’ estimated time. For example: I estimate someone should spend 2 hours on a task. They spend 1 hour on it. I want a report that shows me that information for specific tasks within a project and all tasks within a project. Is that possible? ---

I’m struggling with creating a useable weekly report as well. When I try to create a report, all I see are Task types, or task status, but not the actual tasks themselves. See screenshot attached. ![Screenshot 2024-08-15 at 1.33.55 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/asana/original/3X/1/f/1f289f00e6186327f0f06837854631f47913d0b6.png) ---

@Aimee_Stevland @Tyler_Bender Just wanted to let you know that the [Analytics & Reports](https://asana.com/apps/screenful) by Screenful enables advanced reporting of data from Asana’s native time tracking fields (both on top level tasks and subtasks). You can track logged hours within a selected time period using various charts (bar, stacked bar, line, number etc.) and filter by any property (project, tag, assignee, portfolio etc.). With configurable Task lists, you can create individual timesheet view by tracking [time logged by individual by task within a date range](https://screenful.com/guide/asana/creating-charts-based-on-asana-time-tracking-data#4) Here’s the [guide to get started](https://screenful.com/guide/asana) with 14 days free trial. ---
