# Log a Working Session
## Last Edited - Dil and Grace, Feb 05
### A first-pass through logging a Working Session and Actions
#### Overview
All work on Customer data should be logged.
We have a simple process for doing this using a spreadsheet where typical actions are pre-defined, making logging actions relatively straightworward.
It's still a mainly manual process for now.

>[!Note] This sequence is step 1 in [Pilot Invoice Processing ](/kToPU33tREW0vkvqkW7PZg)

This is likely to be the first check you make on the day.

##### This sequence involves:
- Starting a Working Session
- Logging Actions

#### Sequence steps to start a Working Session
1. USE [THIS FORM](https://forms.gle/CrKmpHLGZcfMkTtJ6) to create a Working Session.
- The form is only accessible if you are logged in to Google.
- If you can't get access, and you **are** logged in to Google, then your log-in is different to the one on the list - let Dil know / request access / as needed.

1. Fill OUT THE FORM
- Select your name from the list,
- Select the best descriptor of what you'll be doing , or select 'other' and type something.
1. SUBMIT THE FORM.
- A new row will be created in the *Sessions* tab of [this spreadsheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14wfjAJ0jRipe1i3nj9rTIPqIFpcLItozspYJj9GfA34/edit?resourcekey=&gid=1003164198#gid=1003164198) with the form info.
- Open the above spreadsheet.
- Copy the most recent 'timestamp' and 'who is this' data from the table. This should be the data related to you, created from filling out the form at stage 1.
1. COPY SESSION DATA TO ACTIONS LOG TAB
- Open the [Actions Log tab](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14wfjAJ0jRipe1i3nj9rTIPqIFpcLItozspYJj9GfA34/edit?resourcekey=&gid=0#gid=0) of the Pilot Data Pre-Processing spreadsheet, create a new row at the top of the log entries by selecting the dummy row
- Right-click and using '*Insert 1 row below*'


- Paste the timestamp and name into the first two cells.

#### NOW YOU CAN START WORK!
