A quick client call belongs on the invoice
Start the timer or add time afterwards. Each entry keeps the client, project, and your notes together, so you’re not piecing the week together on Friday.
Those hours can be your next invoice
Choose a client’s unbilled hours and group the invoice lines. MinuteDock marks that time as invoiced and creates a draft in Xero or QuickBooks. Approve and send without retyping.
