Points to note:

  • Entering %Complete is optional. You can only enter comments and send the email.
  • You can specify the Hours spent on the task in the subject. For example:

    When you specify hours, you need to specify the timecode. When there is only one timecode in application, there is no need to specify the timecode. When there are multiple timecodes, you need to specify it.If you do not want to enter %Complete or Time, remove the square braces for the respective ones completely.

  • You will get a bounce back email when:
    • Time is not allowed on the task.
    • You company policy does not allow you to fill time on 'In Planning'/'Archived' project.
    • Time is not allowed on completed task.
    • The user sending a mail does not have privileges to add time against that task.
