Just set up the starter kit, and it has a lot of good features and ideas. One thing that is very different to what I am trying to do though is the way time is actually entered. In the starter kit you enter time against a single date. What I want is to
be able to select a week and enter time for a project/category combination for whichever days of that week needed in one go. So for exmple I would select a week and then enter 7.5 hours for monday; 4 hours for Tuesday 3 for Thursday etc.
There are different ways I coudl approach this, but before I start down a certain route I was wondering if anyone has any views on the best way to do this or has done something similar. I am thinking that instead of having a single duration field in the
in time_entry table I could have 7 (one for each day of the week).

Hi everyone,
Just set up the starter kit, and it has a lot of good features and ideas. One thing that is very different to what I am trying to do though is the way time is actually entered.

Many thanks
