Your day in the Ops Module

Everything the Lab & Ops team needs, on one page. See the tasks assigned to you, work them one at a time, and log your time — it replaces Asana + Toggl with a single tool built for your phone.

The big idea: every minute you log is tied to a real task, so your hours are accurate and feed payroll automatically. Work one task at a time, start the timer, and the rest takes care of itself.

1 Signing in

First time — set your own password

  1. Chris sends you an invite. Look for an email from Avasol saying you’ve been invited to create a user on ops.avasol.com. Don’t see it? Check spam.
  2. Tap the link, choose your own password, and you’re in.

After that — signing in

  1. On your phone or computer, go to ops.avasol.com.
  2. Sign in with your Avasol email and the password you set.
  3. Forgot it? Tap “Forgot password?”, enter your email, and you’ll get a reset link. You can also change your password anytime from your account menu.

2 My Tasks — your queue

When you sign in you land on My Tasks — your list, already sorted so the most important task is at the top. You work top-down.

  • Tasks are grouped by when they’re due — Do today, Do next week, and so on.
  • A red due date means it’s overdue — do those first.
  • Tap any task to open it.
Prefer a calendar? Tap the Calendar tab to see your tasks laid out by due date — tap a day to see what’s due, then tap a task to open it. It’s the same tasks as your list, just by date.
▶ Start worklist

The one-tap way to begin: opens your top-priority task, ready to work. Already timing? It reads “Resume worklist” and jumps you back.

3 Working a task — the traffic lights

Open a task and you’ll see a big timer with large buttons. They work like traffic lights:

Start / ResumeGreen · go

Starts the clock on this task.

PauseAmber · hold

Pauses the clock for a break or interruption — your total keeps its place.

CompleteGreen · done

Marks the task done and stops the clock.

The big timer shows your total time on this task — it keeps counting across pauses, so Pause → Resume never resets it. And you can only run one timer at a time: starting a new task pauses the current one first, on purpose, so your hours are never double-counted.

Finish and move on

✓ Complete & Next

Finishes this task, stops its clock, and jumps straight to the next one. Your main button for working through the day.

Next Task →

Skips to the next task without completing this one — come back to it later.

All caught up 🎉

When your queue is empty, you’ll see “You’re all caught up.”

4 Notes — say what happened

Every task has a Notes area. Use it for anything worth remembering — a deviation, a problem, an observation, “used lot 240712 instead.”

  • Shared — everyone on the task can see them.
  • Permanent — they’re a log, so add a new one rather than editing or deleting.
  • Stamped with your name and the time, automatically.

5 Your time & timesheet

You don’t do anything special for payroll — your logged time is your timesheet.

  • Everything you Start / Pause / Complete builds your hours for the pay period.
  • Missed starting the timer? You can add time manually for a task.
  • At the end of the period your supervisor reviews and approves your hours, flagging anything that looks off first.
You generally won’t touch the approval screens — those are for supervisors. Your job is to keep the timer honest: start it when you start, pause when you stop.

6 Quick tips

Built for your phone. Big buttons, one task at a time — use it right at the bench.

One timer at a time. No multitasking the clock.

Work top-down. The top of My Tasks is always what to do next.

Complete & Next is your friend. It keeps you moving without hunting for the next task.

7 Getting help

  • Locked out / password: use “Forgot password?” on the sign-in screen, or ask Chris.
  • A task looks wrong or isn’t yours: tell your supervisor — they can reassign or fix it.
  • Anything else: ask Chris or Anikka.
