Time Tracking: Use cases

1. Project Management

• Scenario: A project manager needs to ensure that their team is on track and working efficiently.
• Use Case: The project manager can use the time tracking feature to monitor the hours logged by each team member on a project or project phase. This helps in identifying any bottlenecks or areas where additional resources may be needed. By analyzing the logged hours, the project manager can also make more accurate project timelines and forecasts.

2. Freelancer Billing

• Scenario: A freelancer needs to bill clients accurately based on the time spent on different projects.
• Use Case: The freelancer can log the hours spent on each client project using the time tracking feature. This provides a detailed record of work done, which can be easily converted into invoices. The time tracking system ensures that all billable hours are accounted for and reduces the risk of underbilling or disputes with clients.

3. Remote Work Monitoring

• Scenario: With the rise of remote work, a company wants to monitor and manage the time its remote employees spend on work-related tasks.
• Use Case: Remote employees log their hours in the time tracking system, allowing managers to monitor their activity and ensure they are staying productive. The system can provide insights into the time spent on various projects, helping managers support remote employees and address any productivity issues.

4. Employee Performance Review

• Scenario: An HR manager needs to evaluate the performance and productivity of employees.
• Use Case: The HR manager can review the time logs of employees to assess their efficiency and productivity. By comparing the time spent on tasks against the outputs delivered, the HR manager can identify high performers and those who may need additional support or training. This data can also be used during performance reviews and appraisals.
