C&P ASAP User Guide: Time Sheets
The need to keep detailed, accurate records of how everyone in the shop spends their time is vital to staffing, billing, productivity, and profitability.


That's why daily time keeping is so important to Clients & Profits ASAP. Unlike other accounting systems, time keeping is a fundamental feature. Tha's why there are so many ways to track time, whether it's billable or unbillable.

A time sheet is a collection of a day's time entries for one person. Each time entry is a separate record of a person's work containing the date, job number, task, the number of hours, and a short description.

Time can be tracked either through time cards or time sheets. There's no real difference between them; in fact, time entered on time cards becomes a time sheet when the time card is saved. But the time card has the advantage of being available to users all day, while they're working.

The time sheet, in comparison, is designed for users who enter their time weekly, not daily, or in agencies that have one person input the time for all staff members.

Time reports can be printed daily, weekly, or for any period of time. Time reports can show time by staff member or for one job number. The time card reports analyze the week's time by department or team, for better accountability. Productivity reports, which are printed from Snapshots, show total hours by staffer, task, client, or job -- and are excellent ways to analyze how people work.

This tutorial video shows how time is added in Clients & Profits ASAP.

Adding a time sheet

Adding time in batches is fast and easy with time sheets. They are the best way to get a lot of time entered quickly. The Add Time Sheets window is more flexible than the Time Card, since it lets you enter hours for an entire week at one time. Click here for step-by-step instructions.
