- Track both in MinuteDock to see the full working week, from paid client work to admin, proposals, and training.
- Does time tracking still help with fixed-fee projects?
- The hours show how much work went into the fee, helping you check the margin and make a better estimate next time.
- Can MinuteDock turn tracked time into invoices?
- Build invoices from your tracked time and billing rates, with the detail your client needs. Send them from MinuteDock or through your connected accounting software.
- Is MinuteDock an employee time clock?
- MinuteDock organises time by client and project, so your team tracks the work they’ve done and you get useful budgets, reports, and billing detail. Shift schedules, payroll clock-ins, and job-site monitoring call for a workforce time-and-attendance tool.
