    Read the split

    The figures at the top show Hours logged, how much is Billable, and its Value. Each row shows the total, billable and non-billable hours, overtime, what has been approved, and the value. A purple note says how many hours have no rate, because the value covers only priced hours. Select Export to download the table.

Someone with high hours and low billable hours is not idle; they are doing work nobody is charging for. Some of that is work your business has chosen to absorb, so understand it before changing it.

Common questions

What is Former member? Hours logged by somebody who has since left the business.

Hours are lower than I expect for someone. Time is counted when it is logged, so check they have logged it. Timesheet compliance shows who has time not yet submitted.

Is this money or hours? Both, but value covers only hours with a rate. For unbilled money, use Work in progress.
