Ability to enter timesheet repeats against Project, Resource, Task & Duration across a projected data range?
Ability to enter timesheet repeats against Project, Resource, Task & Duration across a projected data range?
Xero Projects does not currently support creating repeating timesheet entries across a projected date range by Project, Resource, Task, and Duration.
Here's what is available:
Individual time entries – Time can be entered against a specific Project and Task, with a duration or start/end time, for a given date.
Copying time entries – On mobile, an existing time entry can be copied to quickly create another similar entry, though each still needs to be saved individually.
Payroll timesheet integration – Project time entries can be loaded into an employee's payroll timesheet, but the time entry dates must fall within the same date range as the relevant payroll timesheet period.
There is no built-in feature to auto-generate or schedule repeating time entries over a future date range.
Would this not prove a useful & common feature?
That's a fair point — repeating timesheet entries across a projected date range is something many project-based businesses could find useful, particularly where resources are allocated to the same tasks on a recurring basis.
While I'm not able to influence the Xero product roadmap, you can submit this as a feature request directly to Xero. The best way to do that is through Xero's product idea forum, where the product team reviews and considers suggestions from users:

Submitting it there lets other users vote on it too, which helps signal demand to the development team.
