TimeConsultant is a web based time,
expense and billing software for professional services organizations.
TimeConsultant also includes the ability to track projects, skills, schedules,
candidates and resumes and run over 100 reports and charts. Below is a quick
recap of each categories capabilities. Project Management Project status can be
accessed from remote locations as management rollup reports will give you
up-to-the-minute estimates of project completion. Automatic emails go out when
project budgets are exceeded or reach a pre-defined threshold. Budgets may be
used to restrict time entered against a project. Adding projects and assigning
employees can be accomplished in a matter of minutes. Employee utilization
reporting and charts can be easily viewed, showing non-billable activity detail.
Information Management Managers can receive reminder emails to approve time and
expense submittals. Managers can view and approve timesheet and expenses from
one screen. Employees are automatically notified by e-mail of entries that have
been rejected or need revising. Managers can access employee schedules by
individual, group or project. Billing Invoices can be generated based on time
and expenses that have been submitted by employees by project. Invoices include
bill rate changes for an employee, support for daily bill rates and can be sent
via email straight from TimeConsultant. Groups of invoices can be batched for
printing, emailing or exporting to an accounting system. Time Tracking Users can
enter in time easily and quickly from anywhere using an Internet browser.
Several different timesheet formats are available and notes can also be entered
on timesheets (daily/weekly/optional/required). Approval is also easy as a
manager can view all timesheets to approve on one page. Automatic reminders can
be set up to remind employees to submit their time. Expense Reporting Expense
entry is also easy, as expenses can be billed specifically to a project and can
be given a specific description. Per Diem amounts can be entered and assigned by
project or client if needed. Users can define currency and how expenses were
paid by default or by entry. Managers can view all expenses to be approved on
one page. Reporting TimeConsultant has over 100 standard reports that allow you
