Projects

A project organizes your work. It holds details like the client, a color, an hourly rate, and the team it belongs to. Projects can have members with their own permissions, and they contain the tasks you track.

The projects list​

Projects list with team tabs, search, and status filter

What you see: A tab for each team at the top, then a table of projects with these columns:

  • Title: The project name, with its color shown as a dot.
  • Client: The client or employer linked to the project.
  • Description: A short summary of the project.
  • Total: The total time tracked on the project.
  • Status: Whether the project is Active or archived.
  • Edit and Delete: Quick actions for each row.

How to use it:

  • Switch teams using the tabs.
  • Use Search to find a project by title, client, or description.
  • Use the status filter (set to Active by default) to switch between active and archived projects.
  • Click New Project in the top right to create a project.
Attention

Deleting a project permanently removes all of its tasks and ToDos. This cannot be undone.

Project details​

  • Total: Total earnings, based on the hourly rate.
  • Expenses: Total expenses recorded on tasks.
  • Breaks: Total break time.

How earnings are calculated​

The Total on a project is the time tracked multiplied by the Salary/h rate. Set a rate to track earnings, monitor profitability, and prepare client invoices.

Active and archived projects​

  • Active projects are available for time tracking.
  • Archived projects are kept with all their data but hidden from timers. Archive a project instead of deleting it when you want to keep its history.

  • E-Mail: The email address of the person.
  • First Name and Last Name: The member's name.
  • Employee Id: An optional identifier for the member.
  • Permission: The member's role, for example Member. This controls what they can do on the project.
  • Auto-join new projects: When enabled, this member is automatically added to any new project created in this team.

Tasks​

The Tasks tab lists every time entry on the project.
