TL;DR: 

Manual time entries can overwrite previously recorded time in Time Doctor. Once overwritten, the original time data cannot be recovered.

 

Does Manual Time Overwrite Existing Time Records?

Yes. Editing or adding manual time can overwrite existing time records in Time Doctor.

Manual edits are necessary in cases such as forgetting to switch tasks or selecting the wrong project. In these scenarios, modify the existing time block by entering a new time log that overlaps or falls within the existing entry.

Upon editing, a warning popup will appear requesting confirmation before saving changes. Once confirmed, the original time is permanently overwritten and cannot be restored.

 

Note: All manually edited time is visually marked in yellow, while unedited tracked time appears in green.

 

For instructions on how to manually edit time, refer to the Manually Editing Time Support Article.
