Overview

The Manage Projects section lets you add, edit, or review projects that employees will log time against via the Timesheet module. Projects can be billable or non-billable and can be linked to specific clients, departments, and modules like Timesheet or Expense.


Control Panel → Timesheet → Manage Project


Steps to add a new project

  1. Click “Manage Project” located in the top-right corner of the Timesheet section.
  2. Click the “Add Project” button. A project form appears.
  3. Fill in the required details: Field
    Description

    Project Name
    Enter a clear and descriptive project name.

    Project Code
    Assign a unique code (e.g., PROJ001). Useful for reporting.

    Description
    Summarize the scope or purpose of the project.

    Start Date
    Choose the date when the project is scheduled to begin.

    End Date (Optional)

    Non-Billable Resource

Edit or delete a project

  • In the project list (shown below the form), locate the project.
  • Use the Edit or Delete icons under the Actions column.

Additional information visible

  • Mapped Employees count next to each project name.
  • OH Cost (Overhead cost), Total Billable/Non-Billable Cost if configured.
  • Project Status, Last Updated By, and module availability.

Best practices

  • Keep project names consistent and descriptive (e.g., “ClientABC_Q2_WebDev”).
  • Use Project Codes to align with client billing or internal tracking.
  • Always mark projects Inactive/Closed once completed to avoid assignment errors.
