C&P ASAP User Guide : My Time Card
Everyone can track their daily hours using the built-in time card. It keeps a daily record of the jobs and tasks on which you work. You can enter billable and unbillable time for any client, including agency time (i.e., meetings, vacations, etc.). Time entries are added throughout the day as you work.


Time is entered in numbers (e.g., 2.75 hours) and not in minutes (e.g., 35 minutes). Cost and billing rates are applied automatically when the time card is saved; they can't be seen or changed on the time card.

Billable time, unbillable time, and overtime

Any time entry on a time card can be billable, unbillable, or overtime. Billable time will have a cost rate and a billing rate. Unbillable time will have a cost rate only -- the billing rate will be zero. Billing rates are copied to the time card when it is saved, based on the staff member, the client, and the task. A time entry always gets its cost rate from the Staff record. The billing rate is copied from the task, or client file depending on how the job is set up. Overtime has its own staff-based cost and billing rates. All time, even if it is unbillable, updates jobs and tasks.
