Quickbooks – billing for Time

Question:
I want to bill for attorney time, legal assistant time and create invoices with the attorney and/or legal assistant time on the invoice. I cannot find an invoice template that offers this or add a column/create new field. Anyone have a template?

Response:
First verify that you have time tracking turned on by edit/preferences/time & expenses/company preferences/do you track time –> yes and selecting your first day of the week. It will ask to close all windows and then when you click on the ‘home’ icon, you will see an ‘employee’ section there with the option to enter time. When you enter time using the weekly time sheet, notice the last column. It has a check box to indicate whether the time is billable or not.

Alternatively, you can also enter time as a single activity. Now, when you create an invoice, at the bottom, there is an option/box for ‘add time/costs’ which when selected shows a tab with time activities previously entered in your timesheets. Select the appropriate ones to include on the invoice.
