Time Tracking & Timesheets
Time Tracking & Timesheets
Tracking time turns effort into billable data and project insight.
Logging Time
Two ways:
- Timer — start/stop a live timer on a task
- Manual entry — add hours after the fact with date and notes
Timesheets
Each member has a weekly timesheet summarizing logged hours per task and project. Submit it for manager approval if your workflow requires it.
Billable vs Non-Billable
Mark time entries as billable or non-billable. Only billable time flows into client invoices, while all time counts toward effort analysis.
Budget vs Actual
Tata compares logged hours and cost against the project budget:
- Hours used vs estimated
- Cost incurred vs budget (Rp)
- Alert when nearing or exceeding budget
Billing the Client
For time & materials projects, generate an invoice from approved billable hours at each member's rate — directly into Kinexa Mitra/Atlas.
Tip
Encourage daily logging. Time reconstructed at week's end is far less accurate and erodes billing.
