Time Logs & Billing

Time spent on a project is logged against the work itself, and feeds directly into what you can bill the client.

Requires the Projects module.

Logging time

From a project's Time Logs tab, add an entry recording the time spent, the date, and a description of the work done. Time can be logged against the project generally or against a specific task.

Viewing time

See time logs per project, per user, or filtered by date range — useful for both payroll and client billing conversations. A time-based widget is also available on Dashboards for management reporting.

Turning time into revenue

Logged time that hasn't yet been invoiced accumulates as unbilled work-in-progress on the project — see Project Finance for how to review and bill it.

Tips

• Log time as you go rather than reconstructing it later — the description field matters more than people expect once a client asks what a block of hours covered.
• Check unbilled WIP before a billing cycle closes, so logged time doesn't sit unbilled for longer than intended.
