WHY DO TEAMS USE TIME
REPORTS AND INSIGHTS?
Teams rely on time reports when they need a clear, shared view of worked hours without digging into individual entries. Time reports act as a reference layer between raw time tracking and downstream processes like payroll, accounting, and internal reviews.
They help teams answer routine time and cost questions quickly, with confidence that the data has already been reviewed and finalized.

Confirming hours before payroll & billing
Teams review time reports to confirm that total hours for a period are complete and accurate before they move into payroll or billing. This helps catch issues early and avoids last-minute questions when numbers are already in motion.
Reconciling labor costs by period
Time reports are used to understand how worked hours translate into labor costs for a specific pay period. They provide a straightforward way to reconcile time and cost without rechecking individual timesheets.
Answering questions about how time was logged
When questions come up about where time went, teams turn to time reports for a high-level explanation. Reports help clarify how hours were distributed across work, without needing to audit every entry.
Supporting internal reviews and accountability
Managers and operations teams use time reports during reviews to discuss workload, coverage, and patterns over time. Having a consistent reference makes these conversations easier and less subjective.
Keeping a reliable record over time
Time reports provide a historical record of worked hours and costs across periods. This makes it easier to look back, compare periods, and maintain continuity as teams and schedules change.
Payroll-aligned reporting
Reports are built from approved time and aligned with payroll periods. This keeps hours, overtime, and labor costs consistent as data moves into payroll and finance workflows, reducing discrepancies between reports and pay runs.
WHAT REPORTING FEATURES HELP
TEAMS UNDERSTAND TIME DATA?
Ready-made reports
Insights provide ready-to-use reports built from tracked and approved time. Teams can generate clear views of work hours without building reports from scratch or exporting raw data.
Flexible filters and grouping
Reports can be filtered and grouped by team members, projects, clients, tasks, or time periods. This allows teams to view the same data from different angles depending on the question they need to answer.
Time distribution breakdowns
Insights show how time is distributed across work types, teams, and periods. Clear breakdowns help teams understand where time is going and how workload is spread.
Customizable reporting views
Insights adapt to different reporting needs. Teams can adjust report views to match internal reviews, client reporting, or financial analysis without duplicating work.
Export and sharing
Reports can be exported in common formats or shared with stakeholders. This makes it easy to use insights for payroll checks, client updates, budgeting, or internal discussions.
Trusted records
Reports are based on reviewed and finalized time data rather than raw entries. This gives teams confidence that records remain reliable for audits, internal reviews, and long-term reference as teams, schedules, and pay periods change.
