Use the timer
- Go to Time and click Start Timer.
- Choose Client, Project, and Task. Notes is optional. Billable starts on. Turn it off if you do not plan to charge for this time.
- Click Start Timer. You will see Timer started.
- On a computer, the running timer sits at the top of the screen. It shows the time, a pause icon, and a stop icon. On a phone, the same controls sit in a bar.
- Click pause to hold the time you have so far. You will see Timer paused. Click the play icon to continue. You will see Timer resumed.
- Click stop to save the entry. You will see Time Entry saved. The entry uses the task, notes, and Billable choice from the timer, and the time rounded to the nearest minute.
You need a task before stop will save. If the task is missing, Track and Invoice asks you to select a task first.
What your client sees
The timer is only on your screen. After you stop it, the saved time entry can go on an invoice the same way as time you typed in. See how to log time.
