# Record Time Callout

## Record time callout panel overview (Version 23.21)

---

The enhanced **Time Logging**Experience provides a more intuitive, streamlined, and flexible way to record and manage your work hours. Whether you are entering time manually, reviewing previous entries, or using the built-in timer, the updated interface is designed to help you track your work more efficiently and with less friction.

You’ll notice a clearer layout, improved navigation, consistent timer controls across all views, and new configuration options that let your workspace define how time entry actions behave. These improvements ensure that logging time is faster, more accurate, and easier to manage.

The table below provides a quick overview of the Record Time callout:
