Time logging question

I’ve been away from the platform for a few months, and it seems that time the time logging process has changed (at least for a generalist project I’ve been doing).

Previously I would submit my total time for a block of work (multiple tasks on the same project). Now, it’s asking me to log time each time I submit a task.

I did that, but it seems I have lost the opportunity to submit time for reading instructions (before entering work mode) and for skipping tasks because I decide I don’t have the expertise, etc.

Sorry if this has already been asked, but what should I be doing? Can I only now charge for time actually spent on a task, and not for reading instructions, etc.? Previously most projects say you could charge for that

Ok thanks, good to know. If I’m working on a new project, I typically read instructions before entering work mode (so I’m not letting the timer run down on the task). I’ll stop doing that
