> You may create a timelog for the selected job site's employees if you have the **Add new timelog from job site employees** permission enabled for your role in **Web App > Administration (<i class="fa fa-gear" />) > Role Permissions > Timelogs**.

Select one or more employee profiles and then select the **Add** button. When you select the **Add** button, the dialog box closes, and you see a new [empty timelog](https://docs.mobiclocks.com/docs/admin-app-timelogs-overview#what-is-a-timelog) in the timelogs list.
