Log the hours while you work: a timer sits in the header of every screen, the day, week and month calendar is editable by hand, and each entry carries a client, a project and a description.
Consultants rebuild the week from their calendar and inbox, and the version they hand in is always shorter than the week they worked.
Time booked without a client and a project cannot be billed, so it quietly turns into free work.
As a managing partner you find out what the team booked when the timesheets arrive, not while the week is still running.
When a client questions a line on the invoice, a spreadsheet cannot show who booked what, when, and what was changed afterwards.
Start the timer when the work starts, or draw the entry on the calendar afterwards — the result is the same entry.
Pick the client and project, type what you are doing, and the timer keeps running while you move around the app. The description field suggests your own entries from the last month, your board tasks and your linked issues, so a repeat booking is two keystrokes.
Day, week and month views. Drag on an empty slot to create an entry, drag the block to move it, drag its edge to change the duration. Hold Alt to snap to five minutes, Alt and Shift for fifteen.
Manual entry takes a list of dates in one go — useful for a week on site or a recurring standing appointment. Public holidays and approved leave are marked in the date picker before you book over them.
The entry is matched to the client's purchase order, the rate that applies on that date is frozen onto it, and the cost is set aside against that budget. Non-billable time stays visible, just counted separately.
The calendar header shows total, submitted, unsubmitted and non-billable hours for the period. The export button tells you how many unsubmitted billable hours it will take with it before you press it.
The checks that run without anyone remembering to run them.
An entry that overlaps one you already have is refused when you save it, and the timer will not start on top of an existing entry.
After eight hours without a stop, we email the consultant so the entry is corrected the same day instead of at month end. Each person switches that reminder on for themselves.
Once an entry sits on a timesheet it is frozen: it keeps its rate and its budget, and later changes to a purchase order never move it.
Creating, changing or splitting an entry records who did it and the value before and after — the record that supports a GoBD-minded audit and settles a client dispute.
Every saved entry is already priced and waiting for the month's timesheet, which becomes the invoice, see Timesheet to Invoice
No. Both produce the same entry, and consultants on the same team can work either way. Most start the timer for long blocks and draw the short ones on the calendar afterwards.
Yes. Organisation owners can switch the calendar to the team view, see everyone's entries side by side, filter by member, and create an entry in a member's name.
They get a reminder email once the timer has run for eight hours, and the start and end times of the entry can be corrected afterwards.
An hour is billable when it matches an active purchase order for that client and project. If no purchase order covers it, the hour is still tracked, just marked non-billable.
Yes. Split an entry at any point inside it and you get two entries, each keeping the description and project of the original.
Yes. An entry started from a board task or a linked issue keeps that link, so you can go from the hour back to the work it paid for.
