How do I set up clients and projects?

Clients are one of the main ways to categorize tasks and data. Tasks are color coded by client for easy visibility in your week. If you are a single company or don’t perform client work, you can use one client for all your tasks.

Projects are subcategories created underneath a client. This could be different projects or departments for a client. Use what is most important to you to know where time is being spent. These categories will help in reporting.

  1. From the Clients Page click Add.
  2. Add the name.
  3. Optionally you can add start date, end date, and a color.
    1. Start date is helpful to log when you first started working with a client.
    2. End date is helpful to update to track when you ended services with a client.
    3. Color can help visually differentiate between tasks in your week.
  4. Add who should have access to this client. Only users or teams selected will see this client as an option in their dropdown lists for tasks.
  5. Click Submit.
  6. Now you can create projects. Next to Client’s projects, click Add.
  7. Add the project name. All other fields are optional.
    1. If you want everyone who has access to the client to have access to all projects, skip assigning any permissions at the project level.
  8. Click Submit.
  9. After adding all the projects, click Submit.
  10. A pop up will ask if you want all users with access to the Client to have access to the projects. If so, click Yes.
