This module allows expose Redmine's time entries using Views. Time entries can be related to:

• Drupal's nodes - through a custom field added to Redmine time entry
• Drupal's users - through additional field in Drupal's user profile

Highlights of the module:

1. Creates table time_entries on Drupal side that is the adapted copy of table time_entries from Redmine side.
2. Synchronises the table from item 1 above in manual or automatic mode (automatic synchronisation is started before opening any View of type "Redmine time_entries").
3. Provides the ability to create views of type "Redmine time_entries" with the next fields: id, project_id, user_id, activity_id, issue_id, hours, comments, spent_on, created_on, updated_on, nid.
4. Provides the ability to create Views of type "Redmine time_entries" with relation on materials by field time_entries.nid (this ability is used in a case when we have materials on Drupal side that describe time_entries).
5. provides ability to map Redmine users from time entries records to Drupal users. Module includes functions to map Redmine users to Drupal's (mapping is done by users email).
6. Allows to create Redmine Time entries from Drupal using custom form (Rules support will be added in 7.x-2.x) using Redmine's REST API

NOTE: This module works with Redmine DB directly - so you will need to create a user with READ-ONLY permissions for Redmine database which has to be added at the module's DB config page at /admin/redmine_sync/settings/db.
Also, if Drupal's and Redmine's DBs are hosted on different MySQL hosts, Redmine DB should allow remote connections from Drupal's host.
