German term or phrase: Uhrzeit
Eine Liste mit einer Aufzählung von Punkten, die für die Gestaltung eines Workshops notwendig sind. Dort steht" Zeitaufwand für die Aufgabe min./max./durchschn. - Gesamtzeit - geplante Uhrzeit". Es geht also darum, dass man zunächst in die Tabelle die ZeitDAUER eintragen muss und dann den ZeitPUNKT, zu dem man mit diesem Arbeitsschritt beginnen will. Auf Deutsch ist "Uhrzeit" klar, aber "time" ist nicht eindeutig.

Explanation:
... given your additional context

In any case the translation depends on the specific context. If only one time time is stated, it could be the start(ing) time, finish time, or whatever. If a range is stated as here, you need something different.

or as Thomas, said, just 'Time:' -- the specific meaning will be evident from the context.

disagree  Francis Lee (X): That would be the Zeitdauer, as it is in your reference - or is "111.28" a time of day?
21 mins
  -> As a matter of fact, EszterB's example refers to a "Zeitdauer" as indicated in a timetable.
