Add weekly logs   

A scrum team works on a sprint, and they're entitled to log their work hours as they're used to calculate billing, analyze the budget expenditure, and optimize resource allocation. However, adding log hours for individual items one by one can be time-consuming and tedious. With Weekly log hours, you can log hours for multiple dates across log types in a single window. This is a time-saving and efficient way to add log hours.

   Note: If the log hours are not related with any work item, you can choose General under the Select Entity column and add the log hours accordingly.
6. Check the Billable checkbox if the worked hours need to be billed.
