### 1. How to check/view or make mandatory fields for the timesheet entry?

Make sure that you [create tasks](https://docs.pockethrms.com/ess-portal/manager/project#how-to-create-a-new-task-for-a-project) while [creating a project](https://docs.pockethrms.com/ess-portal/manager/project#how-to-create-a-new-project) so it will be visible in the timesheet for the project.

To check what are the mandatory fields and what are the fields that you can keep as optional for the timesheet, follow the steps below.

**Step 1**: Log into the cloud portal, go to the ‘ESS Settings’ menu and under the ‘Project’ tab click on the ‘Timesheet Settings’ subtab.

**Step 2**: In the ‘Mandatory Field’ you can tick the checkboxes to make the options mandatory to untick to keep it optional and click on the ‘Save’ button. The changes will be saved accordingly.
