Timesheets record the hours your team spends on projects and tasks. Tracking time shows you where effort goes, what is billable, and how actual hours compare to your estimates. This guide covers logging time and managing timesheets. You will find Timesheets as a tab in the Projects area.

What a timesheet entry captures

Each timesheet entry records one block of work, with:
  • User, who did the work
  • Project and Task the time was spent on
  • Client
  • Date
  • Hours
  • Billable or non-billable
  • Status, either Pending or Approved
  • Notes
This ties every hour to a specific person, project, and task, so your time data is accurate and reportable.

Adding a timesheet entry

  1. Go to the Timesheets tab in Projects
  2. Click + Timesheet (or press C)
  3. Select the User who did the work
  4. Choose the Client, Project, and Task
  5. Choose how to enter time with Type:
    • Date records a start and end time on a given day
    • Duration records a length of time directly
  6. Set the Start Time and End Time (or the duration)
  7. Toggle Billable on if the time can be charged to the client
  8. Add Notes if needed
  9. Click Add timesheet

Billable versus non-billable

Each entry is marked billable or non-billable:
  • Billable time can be charged to the client and feeds into invoicing
  • Non-billable time is internal work you track but do not charge for
Marking time correctly keeps your billable totals accurate and makes it clear what can be invoiced.

The timesheets view

The Timesheets tab lists all entries with columns for Number, User, Project, Task, Client, Date, Hours, Status, Billable, Notes, and Actions. At the top, summary figures show:
  • To approve, entries awaiting approval
  • Total billable hours
  • Total non-billable hours
  • Total time logged
Use Dates and Users filters to narrow the view, and Sort to order entries.

Approving timesheets

Timesheet entries move through an approval flow:
  • Pending, logged but not yet approved
  • Approved, confirmed by a reviewer
From the Actions column, you can Edit an entry, Approve it, or Reset an approved entry back to pending. The “To approve” figure at the top shows how many entries are waiting, so reviewers know what needs attention.

How timesheets connect to projects and billing

Timesheets tie back to your projects and billing in two ways:
  • Logged hours count against a project’s budgeted hours, so you can see whether work is on track. See Creating and managing projects.
  • Billable hours can feed into invoices, so client time is charged accurately. See Invoices.

What to do next

  1. Review logged hours against your project’s budgeted hours
  2. Invoice billable time to clients
  3. Use the projects dashboard to track time across projects
