Select the resource from the team and enter their actual time worked. In the team's row, you will see the summed actual time worked for the team

You can also add actual time worked for resources, teams, or roles that are not currently allocated to the project. Click on Assign Resources, Teams, or Roles in the toolbar.
These resources, teams, and/or roles will thus be allocated to the project with a value of 0.

Deleting Actual Time Worked
To delete actual time worked, select one or more cells and press DELETE or enter in a value of "0".

In the toolbar, click Compare Actuals with Plan to see the values per cell. In the additional column Deviation from Plan, you can see the summed deviation between the actual time worked and allocations:
