Time tracking settings
Time tracking settings define the workspace-wide preferences that apply to time entries and timers. These settings cover rounding, categories, and whether multiple timers can run simultaneously.
Billing and cost rates
Billing and cost rates are set per user on each team member's profile, with optional category-specific overrides. Projects can also have their own billing rate. When a time entry is created, the rate is resolved from these levels automatically: project rate first, then user rate (with category override if applicable). Changing a rate affects new entries only, and existing entries keep the rate they were logged with.
Rounding configuration
The rounding increment (1, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30, or 60 minutes) and rounding direction (up, down, or nearest) are configured here. Rounding applies when time entries are converted into invoice line items, not to the raw entries themselves. Adjusting these settings changes how future invoices calculate billed time from tracked hours.
Timer behaviour
Timers that have been running continuously for more than 24 hours are automatically stopped. This prevents timers from running overnight or over weekends by accident. When a timer is auto-stopped, the user who started it receives a notification with the recorded duration.
Time entry categories
Categories are created and managed from settings. Each category has a name that appears in the category selector when logging time. Categories apply workspace-wide and can be added, renamed, or removed at any time.
Enabling or disabling time tracking
Time tracking can be toggled on or off globally. When disabled, timers, the timesheet, and time-related fields on tasks are hidden across the workspace. These settings establish the baseline for rounding and timer behaviour, so individual projects and users only need to configure their own rates.
