How to filter, round, and export your data

In this article we show you how to filter, round, and export your data via the Timeular desktop app

Updated over 8 months ago

Filtering

You can filter the data on the Insights tab of Timeular by using the buttons across the top which are highlighted in green in the screenshot below:

From left to right the filters are:

  • Time span

  • Folders

  • People

  • Activities

  • Tags

  • Notes (plain note text)

  • Billable

Using these filters you can select or de-select the various options to ensure you're looking at the specific data set you want to view.

🚨Please note🚨: If you are a solo Timeular user (Personal or Personal Pro subscription) only you will be visible in the People filter. If you are a member of a workspace (Team subscription) you must have full access privileges in order to view other folder members' time entry data.


​If you are filtering for multiple folders the inner ring of the "Summary" chart will show you the folder data and the outer ring will show you the activity data. You can hover over each segment for more detailed information.

You can save your filtered data to quickly return to it with a single click. Once you have applied your desired filters click on the "+ Save Filter" button and give your filter a name. Now whenever you want to see this specific data set click on your saved filter and these filters will automatically be applied.

Exporting


If no filters are applied all the data for the selected time frame will be exported. If you do have filters applied then only the filtered data will be exported.

Click the blue Export button in the top right corner to export your data.

When exporting your data to .CSV or .XLSX file formats you can specify whether you want to view the time entry data in Hours, minute and seconds (eg: 06:31:15) or Decimals (eg: 6.52). You can also select which columns to populate in your exported report.

When exporting to .PDF file format you have the option to add a custom logo that will appear in the top right corner of the exported document. After you've selected the .PDF file option either click the area below the "Custom logo" header or drag your logo and drop it directly into this area to upload it. You can also customize which options appear in the .PDF export here, similar to the .CSV and .XLSX options.

Rounding

When viewing your data in the Insights view click the "Rounding" button to see the options to round your time entries to various durations.

🚨Please note🚨: The rounding will only be applied to the data shown on the Insights tab. This will not make any changes to the actual time entry data that was created in the Timeular Calendar tab.

We hope these insights will help you identify your time sinks and further optimize how you spend your time.


🚨Please note🚨: If you are exporting a large PDF report the data may get truncated depending on the PDF software you're using (this will happen with Adobe Reader, for example). In these scenarios we suggested breaking the export up into smaller timeframes so that all data will be visible.
