XPM - Add Pause button
When using the start button in the timesheets in XPM to track time on a job, the option for a pause button to pause your time, then to unpause and keep recording your time.
Thanks for all the detail around the different scenarios a pause function for the timer would help with.
Our team have been taking interest in ideas in the forums here.
With the way the timer works with Practice Manager today, developing the ability to pause this would require extensive work and this isn't something we're able to resource at this time.
As we enhance integrations through practice manager our practice teams will continue to track ideas on the site here, and share if there's any change.

A pause button would enable toggling between jobs (never losing time). WFM once had the pause button and Xero took it away! It is critical to have a pause botton.

The "it's too much work, we don't have the resources" response is a little concerning

Converting from Software that already has this, feel like a backward step. In an ideal world we would ONLY work on one client at a time, however with daily multiple business distractions, this is not the case.

This is a great idea. I currently use an external stopwatch app on my computer which is less than ideal. It means I can at the end of the day put in the total hours/time on a job rather than worry about exact start and finish times.

Totally agree. The number of times I have wished I could pause my time clock while ansering a phone call etc. It would be hugely helpful if you able to add another timesheet while you have one on pause namely for times you need to pause your clock to take a call then record the time on the phone call to another client.

Its really frustrating for a days workflow to not be able to pause. Not having the feature doesnt allow us to work seamlessly through the day. Pausing jobs matches how people actually work
