Tracking time in QuickBooks Time is a streamlined process that offers flexibility and accuracy. Here are two effective ways to track time using QuickBooks Time:
- Manual Time Entry
- Log In: Each employee logs in to their QuickBooks Time account, either through a web browser or the mobile app.
- Select Time Entry: Once logged in, they select the “Time Entry” option.
- Choose the Date and Project: Employees pick the date for which they want to log hours and choose the specific project or job they worked on.
- Enter Time: In the next step, they enter the start and stop times or total hours worked.
- Submit Time: After verifying the entries, they submit their time.
- Mobile Time Tracking
- Download and Install: Employees need to download and install the QuickBooks Time mobile app on their smartphones or tablets.
- Log In: Once the app is installed, employees log in to their QuickBooks Time accounts.
- Clock In/Out: Using the app, they can easily clock in and out with a single tap on their devices. The app uses GPS to track the precise location where the clock-in and clock-out events occur, adding an extra layer of accountability.
- Switch Between Jobs: If an employee works on multiple projects during the day, the app allows them to switch between jobs and accurately track time for each one.
- Review and Submit: At the end of their workday or when convenient, employees can review their time entries in the app and submit them for approval.
With these methods, businesses can ensure accurate timekeeping, simplifying payroll, and project cost tracking.
