logger, Spherical Timesheet fills out most of your timesheet for you!
Suitable for businesses with one or more users,
Spherical Timesheet includes all of the features that
you need to help you imrpove your time management, project management, and client billing processes.
Spherical Timesheet's patent-pending logger
accurately tracks when you work on programs and
files on your computer, helping you to fill in your timesheet quickly and
accurately. Spherical Timesheet Logger runs unobtrusively in the background while
you work.
Spherical Timesheet Logger detects time that the computer is on but not being used,
automatically starting the Spherical Timesheet Stopwatch from the time you stopped using your computer.
This ensures that you capture all of your work time while it is still fresh in your mind, helping you to create
accurate timesheets with very little effort.
Spherical Timesheet Logger works with nearly all programs and requires no user configuration.
It detects time spent working on files, reading and writing emails, and visiting websites, amongst other activity.
Automatically imports appointments from Microsoft Outlook Calendar, so you don't have to use your precious time to transfer
them manually (compatible with Microsoft Outlook 2000/XP).
Use your PDA or handheld device (via synchronization with Microsft Outlook) to enter in timesheet information,
allowing you to make
timesheet entries while you're on the move .
Spherical Timesheets Advanced Cleanup System removes any unwanted data from your timesheets automatically.
As an example, files you work on for a short period (user configurable) are automatically absorbed into work you were doing at
around the same time. This helps to make timesheet creation fast and easy!
Easy interface for manual entry of timesheet data - just click the add work button to add new entries or
overwrite existing data.
Spherical Timesheet Stopwatch (shown with a single click even when other
applications are running) can be used for timing tasks performed away from the
computer, such as phone calls and meetings.
Intuitive user interface incorporating both Gantt chart and table
timesheet views provides means for rapid graphical editing of timesheet data.
Hierarchical project and entity database allows you to tailor the software to
suit your organization's specific work categorization needs. As an example, you
can create a project for each client, a sub-project for each job you are
working on for that client, then a sub-project for each billable task. You can
also create projects to monitor your non-billable activities.
Flexible timesheet billing system allows you to set bill rates for each
staff member and for each project (client or job).
Timesheet costing system allows you to specify hourly
cost rates for each employee and displays itemized profit/loss.

import customers/jobs into Spherical Timesheet,
and export invoices back to QuickBooks.

import tasks as Spherical Timesheet projects,
and export actual work back to Microsoft Project.
Text and XML file import/export, allows you to export your
time tracking data to other applications (such as Microsoft Excel).
Powerful configurable hierarchical viewing and reporting system provides detailed project and
resource analysis from your timesheet data. An example of a report is a hierarchy by project,
then person, then work tool and then work item.
A large number of custom views are possible, and all can be printed as a
report. Some examples include:
Incorporates a Timesheet Workgroup Wizard, allowing you to setup a
single database store for all project information and submitted timesheets.
This allows managers to view company-wide reports from one location,
and ensures all staff categorize their work using a common project/client hierarchy.
Staff can operate offsite by
submitting timesheets and receiving project information via email.
Spherical Timesheet includes the
Microsoft Jet database engine, the perfect choice for
central databases in small organizations (up to 20 staff).
Spherical Timesheet is also compatible with Microsoft SQL Server (MSDE) and MySQL database
servers, making Spherical Timesheet scalable to virtually any number of users.
User access permissions can be controlled from your database software (not supplied),
allowing you to lock out staff from sensitive company information such as billable amounts.
Timesheet data can be password protected for staff privacy.
Spherical Timesheet's advanced configuration system allows multiple levels of submission.
As an example, staff can submit timesheets to a department level timesheet database, then each department head can submit
to the central company database. Please contact Spherical Technology if you require more information about this feature.
