Have you looked at Org's clocking features? (See "Clocking work time" in
the Dates and Times section of the manual.)

Clocking timestamps go into a drawer, rather than a table, but you can
generate a clock report table.  Depending on what you're trying to do,
that might be a cleaner and more flexible solution.

Best,
Richard
