For internal office work
Keep unnecessary client or contract fields out of the routine. Use a description when it helps explain the day.
CLIENT TIME TRACKING & CONTRACTS
Put a name
to the hours.
A time record becomes more useful when you know who the work was for. Connect hours to a client, a contract and a description, with the level of detail your company needs.

THREE DETAILS, THREE DIFFERENT JOBS
Make the record
easier to understand.
- The client
- Identifies who the work was for. Managers maintain client details, including contact information, and can set a default contract.
- The contract
- Adds a named contract and hourly billing rate. Use it as context for reviewing time and estimated billing value.
- The description
- Explains what happened during the work. A useful note can make a later review more meaningful than hours alone.
MANAGEMENT CHOOSES THE DETAIL
Keep it simple.
Add structure where it helps.
Authorized managers choose whether client, contract and description fields are shown or required. Employees follow those choices as they complete their time records.
For client-facing teams
Ask for the details needed to review client work consistently. Required fields help make the record useful before it moves through review.
For independent professionals
Use the same client and contract context to organize your own time. A free plan is available for getting started.
FROM ENTRY TO REVIEW
See the work
from the client's side.
Review time by client or contract and use the record's description to understand the work. Check the relevant dates and approval status before using totals for a billing decision.
Explore timesheet review →A few practical questions.
Do all employees need to choose a client and contract?
No. Management controls which fields are shown and required. Configure them for the work your company actually needs to track.
Can a work site suggest the client?
Yes. A physical work site can link to a company client and suggest that client at clock-in. The normal work-detail settings still apply. Learn about work sites.
Does a site transfer split client or contract assignments?
No. A site transfer keeps the same shift and preserves its client, contract and description. Site intervals and client assignments are different parts of the record.
What happens when a contract is removed?
Historical time is retained and client defaults pointing to that contract are cleared. A contract assigned to an open shift must be resolved before it can be removed.
Does filtering by client restart overtime?
No. Overtime is classified using full workweek context across clients and sites before report filters are applied. See how overtime works.
Does this replace invoicing software?
No. Client hours and contract billing estimates help you review the work. They do not create invoices, collect payments or record collected revenue.
