Activity log
This view lists time activities for a given context (timesheet timeline bar, work-document task, equipment, ticket info, or procedure info). You can review each entry and, depending on your rights, edit, stop, or switch a still-running activity.
The task / work document labels (and their plurals) can vary with your workspace settings. The interface shows the labels configured for the workspace.

Prerequisites
- You must be signed in to Sequentia.
- A workspace must be selected.
- At least one activity must exist in the opening context (otherwise some entry points do nothing — e.g. a task with no time, or equipment with no activities).
Permissions and access
| Situation | Effect |
|---|---|
| No permission to manage timesheets | View-only: cards cannot be edited; Stop / Change activity are hidden. A message explains you do not have the required permission in this workspace. |
| Activity linked to a work document you neither created nor belong to as a member | Card is view-only (work-document access message). Stop / Change activity can still appear for a running, non-invoiced activity if you can manage timesheets — see To confirm with product. |
| Activity already invoiced | Card is view-only; no Stop / Change activity. An Invoice #… ribbon opens the invoice. |
| Linked ticket is on a board you cannot access | Warning shown; opening the ticket is blocked. The card may still be editable if no other restriction applies — see To confirm with product. |
Open the activity log
From the timesheet timeline
- Open the Timesheets page.
- Click an activity bar on a user’s timeline.
- The Activity log window opens (title + user name, help, close).

From a work document
- Open a work document.
- In the task list, click the progress / duration area (progress bar and actual / estimated time).
- The log opens for that task’s activities (if any; otherwise the click does nothing).

From the equipment report
- Open the equipment report.
- On equipment that has linked activities, use the action to view activities.
- The log opens as a window (header with help).

Embedded in ticket or procedure info
In the ticket info or procedure info dialog, the Activities tab shows the same content without the “Activity log” header and without a dedicated help button (contextual help is only offered when the log is opened as a window with a header).

View contents
Header (window mode only)
- Title: Activity log — followed by the name of the user linked to the first activity in the provided list.
- Help (?) icon: opens help for this view.
- Close (X) icon: closes the window and returns the activity list to the parent context (e.g. the timeline may refresh).
Activity list
- Sort: newest first (descending start time).
- Progressive display: 5 activities initially, then +5 on scroll (infinite scroll), up to a high technical cap.
- Each row is an activity card, with the activity’s user name shown above it.
Activity card
On each card you can typically see:
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| Times | Start (and end if finished), pencil icon |
| Duration | Live update while the activity is still running |
| Client | Client name from the work document, when known |
| Document / task | Document and task names; click opens the document (if the card is not view-only) |
| Ticket | #number + title; click opens the ticket if you can access its board |
| Invoice | Invoice #… ribbon when invoiced; opens the invoice |
| Note | Collapsible Note area: text, images, links, bullets; auto-saves on change when the card is editable |
| Location | Compact address when set; location editor when the note is expanded (or the editor is open) |
Clicking the card (outside links and the note area) opens Edit activity (times, task, delete, etc.), only if the card is not view-only.

View-only messages
When editing is blocked, a red notice explains:
- “You cannot edit this activity for the following reason(s):”
- then one or more causes: work-document access, permission to manage timesheets, already invoiced, or ticket board access.
Running activity (no end time)
Under the card, if the activity has no end time, is not invoiced, and you have permission to manage timesheets:
| Button | Effect |
|---|---|
| Stop (red) | Stops the activity for that user. Buttons are briefly disabled while the operation runs. |
| Change activity (blue) | Opens Choose a task to switch to another task; the new activity may be added to this log’s list. |
Without that permission, or if the activity is invoiced / already ended, these buttons do not appear.

What this view does not do
- Start an activity from scratch (no “Start” button here): use the Tools panel or Choose a task.
- Create a work document, task, or ticket.
- Show contextual help when embedded (ticket / procedure without this header).
- Bypass an invoiced activity: edit, stop, and switch remain blocked.
In-app help
When the log is open as a window (header visible), the help icon opens contextual help. Help title: Help - Activity log.
To confirm with product
- The title uses the name linked to the first activity in the received list, not necessarily the first after sort, and not a single user when the list is mixed (e.g. equipment report). Confirm the desired multi-user title.
- Stop / Change activity do not check work-document membership, while the card is view-only without that access. Confirm whether stop / switch should also be blocked.
- The “no access to the ticket’s board” warning is shown but does not by itself put the card in view-only mode. Confirm whether editing should be blocked in that case.
- In embedded mode (ticket / procedure), there is no dedicated help button: confirm whether parent screens should expose help on those screens.
