The Time Reports dashboard helps you review tracked hours across projects, clients, and team members. You can use it to analyze how time is spent, correct incorrectly tracked entries, and export reports for billing or internal analysis.

When to use the Time Reports dashboard

The Time Reports dashboard is useful when you need to:

  • Review how much time was tracked on projects

  • Check uninvoiced hours before billing clients (available as a workspace setting, contact [email protected] for more info)

  • Analyze team workload and productivity

  • Correct incorrectly tracked time entries

  • Export time reports for internal analysis or client reporting

Where to find the Time Reports dashboard

To open the Time Reports dashboard:

  1. In the left sidebar in Allfred, click Reports.

  2. Select Time report.

The dashboard will open and display tracked time entries for the currently selected time period.

Overview of the dashboard

The Time Reports page contains several tools that help you analyze and manage tracked time:

  • Date picker – choose the time period you want to analyze

  • Group By – organize time entries by different attributes

  • Filters – narrow the report to specific projects, users, or teams

  • Time entries table – review detailed tracked time data

  • Bulk actions toolbar – update multiple entries at once

  • Export button – download reports

  • Total tracked hours – summary of time tracked for the selected period

Together, these tools help you understand where time is being spent and make corrections when necessary.

Selecting the time period

Use the date picker at the top of the page to define the time range for the report. You can:

  • Select a specific month

  • Choose a custom date range

  • Use quick presets such as:

    • Next 7 days

    • Next 14 days

    • Next 30 days

    • This month

    • Last month

    • This year

    • Last year

When you change the date range, the report automatically updates to show time entries for the selected period.

Grouping time entries

The Group By option lets you organize time entries by different attributes. Available grouping options include:

  • Date

  • Brand

  • Project

  • Budget item

  • Task

  • User

  • Position

Grouping helps you analyze tracked time from different perspectives.

Examples:

  • Group by Date to review daily tracked hours

  • Group by User to see how much time each team member tracked

  • Group by Project to analyze time spent on specific projects

Grouped rows can be expanded to display the individual time entries within each group.

Filtering the report

Use the Filters menu to narrow down the results and focus on specific data. You can filter time entries by:

  • Clients

  • Brands

  • Projects

  • Project categories

  • Budget items

  • Tasks

  • Subtasks

  • Positions

  • Teams

  • Billing category

  • Billing status

  • Users

  • Status

You can apply multiple filters at the same time. Examples:

  • View time tracked for a specific client or project

  • Display only billable hours

  • Review work performed by a specific team or user

Understanding the time entries table

The main table displays detailed information about each tracked time entry. Use this table to review where time was spent across projects, tasks, and team members. Common columns include:

Bulk actions for selected time entries

After selecting time entries, a bulk action toolbar appears at the bottom of the page. Open the bulk actions menu (three dots) to perform actions on all selected entries. Bulk actions allow you to quickly update multiple time entries without editing them one by one. Available actions include:

  • Move selected time entries to another project: Transfer selected entries to a different project. More info here.

  • Move selected time entries to another position: Change the role assigned to the selected entries. More info here.

  • Change billing category: Update the billing category assigned to selected entries.

You can export time data using the Export button in the top-right corner of the page. Available export options include:

  • User effectiveness

  • Time-offs

  • Summary Time report (PDF)

  • Detailed Time report (PDF)

Exports are often used for client reporting, billing preparation, or internal analysis.

Total tracked hours

In the top-right corner of the page you will see Total Tracked Hours. This number shows the total time tracked based on the selected:

  • date range

  • filters

  • grouping

As you adjust filters or the date range, the total tracked hours update automatically.

Customizing table columns in Time report

You can customize which columns appear in the report. To change the visible columns:

  1. Click the column settings icon in the table header.

  2. Select or deselect the columns you want to display.

Customizing columns helps you focus on the information most relevant to your workflow.
