A pricing model where clients are billed for actual labor costs (tracked time × labor rates) plus a markup percentage or fixed fee to cover overhead and profit, requiring accurate time tracking and transparent cost documentation to justify billings and maintain client trust.

Two fundamental project pricing approaches where fixed-fee projects charge a predetermined amount regardless of hours worked (requiring time tracking for profitability analysis only), while time & materials projects bill based on actual hours tracked plus expenses (requiring time tracking for client billing), each with different risk profiles and time tracking needs.

A labor cost control policy mandating that employees obtain supervisor authorization before working overtime hours, typically enforced through time tracking system workflows that flag or block unapproved overtime entries, helping organizations manage labor budgets while ensuring FLSA compliance for legitimate overtime work.

Practice of categorizing work hours into billable (client-facing, revenue-generating) and non-billable (administrative, internal) categories. Critical for professional services firms to maximize revenue capture and understand true project profitability.

Practice of tracking all work hours throughout the day without gaps, ensuring complete accountability and accurate payroll. Every hour is assigned to a project, task, or category, creating comprehensive data for billing and analysis.

Method for calculating appropriate hourly rates for freelance and consulting work, factoring in overhead, taxes, benefits, and desired income.

Manager feature that allows approving multiple employee timesheets simultaneously rather than one at a time. Streamlines approval workflows and reduces administrative time for managers overseeing large teams or during period-end processing.

Key performance metric for professional services firms measuring the percentage of working hours that can be billed to clients. Critical for understanding productivity, profitability, and resource allocation with industry benchmarks typically ranging from 60-85%.

Classification system distinguishing client-billable work from internal activities. Critical for accurate client billing, profitability analysis, and understanding true project costs including overhead in professional services.
