If a task has 0 ETC and there are actuals posted against it, the task status shows as complete. Note that this is the same at the assignment level. Completed tasks/assignments do not show when you populate a timesheet with assigned tasks.

If a task or assignment has 0 hours posted and 0 ETC, the task will show as Not Started or Started and these will show when you Add Assigned Tasks for the timesheet.

You will need to click on Select Tasks which brings back a list of Open for Time Entry Tasks for projects where you may or may not be assigned.
Use the Smart Filter on the Select Tasks option to make

This can be saved as your default filter so each time you go to Select Tasks it will only show the tasks you are assigned to.
