IntoAEC Time Tracking – Where Productivity Meets Precision

In project management, every minute counts. The Time Tracking module in IntoAEC makes sure your team’s efforts are not just recorded but also converted into real project value. Think of it as your time accountant + productivity tracker + cost monitor, all in one.

Here’s how Time Tracking helps your team:

Track Workloads – Monitor how much time users spend on each activity.
Measure Productivity – Spot where resources are used efficiently (and where they’re not).
Bill Smarter – Convert tracked hours into billable expenses.
Align Costs with Timelines – Keep financials in sync with actual work progress.

This ensures accurate logging, smarter planning, and simplified billing across clients and projects.

How to Access Time Tracking

Stepping into the Time Tracking feature feels like unlocking a control deck for your client projects:

From the left-side menu, click Clients.
In the Client Mastergrid, select the client you want to manage.
On the client’s page, tap the Time Tracking card — and you’re in!
Pro move: Think of this as opening the “black box” of your client’s project timeline.

Inside the Time Tracking Section

Once you enter, the interface transforms into a time intelligence hub.

Filters That Work Like Lenses

User Filter – Zoom in on a single user’s timeline.
Date Filter – Adjust your view from a single day to a complete range.

Smart Summary Cards – Your Project’s Pulse

At the top, four sleek cards give you real-time project health:

Total Time – Cumulative hours logged.
Time Converted to Expense – Hours already billed or monetized.
Total Cost – Value of time spent, matched with user rates.
Cost Converted to Expense – Costs already turned into trackable expenses.

These cards aren’t just numbers — they’re decision accelerators.

Managing Timesheets

Hit Create Timesheet to log time manually, as easily as jotting in a digital diary.
No entries yet? A stylish No Data vector awaits, gently nudging:
“Your project’s story hasn’t started yet. Add time to begin writing it.”

Why It’s Innovative:
Instead of being just a logbook, Time Tracking in IntoAEC is a strategic companion:

It visualizes hidden effort.
It translates time into cost.
It connects progress with client billing.

Every tap feels less like filling forms and more like sculpting your project’s timeline.
