Time tracking
Time in tobbli lives on a project, not as a free-floating timesheet. Start the timer there, stop it, then pull unbilled hours onto an invoice.
- 1
Open the project you are working on
Create or open a project under the client. The timer belongs here so hours, expenses, and documents stay on the same engagement instead of a global dump of time.
- 2
Start the timer, then stop it
Start when you sit down, stop when you stand up. If you forgot to stop, edit the duration on the entry. The record is the hours you will bill, not a surveillance log.

Find hours that are not on an invoice yet
Unbilled entries stay on the project until you pull them. Filter or scan for work that has not become a line item yet so a week does not disappear into a notebook.

Turn those hours into invoice lines
From the project, add unbilled time to an invoice. Descriptions and quantities come from the entries — you should not retype the week in the document editor.
Why the timer is not on the invoice first
Invoicing from memory is how hours go missing. Tracking on the project first means the invoice is a rollup, not a reconstruction. If you only ever send one-off invoices with typed lines, you can skip the timer — it is there when the week is too messy to remember.
Fixing an entry after the fact
Adjust duration or notes on the time entry before you bill it. After hours are on a sent invoice, treat that like any other sent line: the document is locked, so a correction is a credit note, not a quiet edit of history.
