Overview

Since 1985 Timeslips has been established not only as the leader in time billing software, but also as the standard by which other time billing products are measured. A powerful feature set is presented in a user-friendly interface, making Timeslips an incredibly capable product. You could say that Timeslips is the perfect solution for anyone whose time is their money and who can’t afford to waste either.

From its informative reports to easy-to-use menus, to innovative features found in no other product, Timeslips’ ultimate purpose is to make your business more profitable. One of the ways this is accomplished is by automating many of the processes that you now do manually. When those processes are given to Timeslips, your business becomes more efficient, your billings become more accurate, and more of your time becomes billable. Timeslips will quickly become one of the most important, and certainly one of the most underpaid, members of your firm.

Billing

When it comes time to bill your clients, generating bills is no longer an all-day process. Simply click “Generate Bills” from the Navigator menu and select the clients you want to bill, date ranges, specific activities, or any of dozens of filters. To make it even easier, you can save all of these settings as a template to make billing a one-click process. You may also track time separately for each client project, and then bill them individually, or on one consolidated statement. Your bills are generated to your exact specifications with every detail you need, in the order you select, and in the format you’ve designed.

When you approve those bills, every time and expense record is closed and marked with the invoice number and date. You always have the ability to “undo” a bill in order to make a change, or even reprint an old bill whenever it’s needed.
