In the dialog that opens next, choose whether you want to select from the job site's employees or access the complete employee list. The following screenshot highlights these two options in the timelog creation dialog.

> 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 **Administration (<i class="fa fa-gear" />) > Role Permissions > Timelogs**. Similarly, you may access the complete employee list and create a timelog if you have the **Add new timelog from All employees** permission enabled under the same role permission settings.

Select one or more employee profiles and then select the **Add** button, as shown in the following screenshot.

Proceed to the [Edit and apply actions to timelogs](https://docs.mobiclocks.com/docs/editing-timelog) topic to see how to edit an empty timelog and add entries.
