Import and Export Time Sheets

Move Time Sheets to Another Project

  • If your current project is located at "c:\timesage\projects\myproject.tsp", you can normally find the project files located in "c:\timesage\projects\myproject\". (If placed elsewhere, check "Tools >> Project Options >> Project".)
  • The time sheet files have .gtx as their file extension. (For the curious, these files are actually saved as XML.)
  • These files should now be moved into a project directory, e.g. "c:\timesage\projects\receiver-project\".
  • Afterwards, close existing, if any, project in TimeSage and load "c:\timesage\projects\receiver-project.tsp".
  • The files are now available in the menu "View >> Time Sheets".


Import and Export Time Sheets in .CSV File Format

  • About .csv files:
    • CSV stands for "comma separated files". File extensions are .csv and .txt.
    • CSV files are often use to exchange data between similar but different programs.
    • CSV files stores data in text lines where each line, a.k.a. record or row, has multiple fields, a.k.a. columns.
    • CSV typically uses either comma or semicolon to separate fields data.
  • To import and export use "File >> Import file" and "File >> Export file as".
  • How to control which fields in time sheets are imported and exported:
    • Invisible columns are ignored when writing and reading fields.
    • Column ordering controls the order in which fields are written and read.
    • Control visibility and indices of columns in "Tools >> Project Options >> Sheets and columns".

configuration of columns in time sheets

  • When often doing import and export of time sheets:
    • You can have multiple projects point to the same project directory:
      • The project directory is where all project time sheets are stored.
      • Set this option from: "Tools >> Project Options >> Project".
      • You can create projects to handle time sheets csv import and export.
    • Import and export of time sheets example:
      • Your main project file: "c:\time-sheets\example.tsp".
      • Your import project file: "c:\time-sheets\example-import.tsp".
      • Your export project file: "c:\time-sheets\example-export.tsp".
      • Your common project directory: "c:\time-sheets\example\".
