Time tracking and timesheetsNEW

See where the team’s time really goes: log hours per task with a timer or manual entry, mark what is billable, send it for approval and compare budget against actuals on each project. Reports show hours by person, customer and project, and CSV export takes it all wherever you need. Because the timesheet lives inside your projects, billing by the hour becomes simple and transparent.

  • One-click timer or manual hour entry, always per task.
  • Mark hours as billable and send the period for approval before closing.
  • Budget against actuals per project, reports and CSV export.

Free in Sellio, you only pay for the machine

Time tracking with billable, approval and budget against actuals, inside your projects. You only pay for the machine.

Benefits

You know where time went

Hours by task, person, customer and project reveal where the team invests the day, with no guesswork.

Billing by the hour gets simple

Billable hours arrive already marked and approved, so generating the invoice for the period is straightforward.

No project overruns unnoticed

Budget against actuals raises the alert when hours pass what was agreed.

Month-end without a spreadsheet

Approval and CSV export replace the manual collection of hours at month-end.

You bill and see the margin

Approved billable hours become an invoice in one click, and real margin compares that value with labor cost so you know what each project actually earns.

Prepaid hours under control

Retainer packages show balance, percent consumed and a depletion alert, so a client’s hour bank never runs out by surprise.

Why Sellio

Timesheet inside your projects: the logged hour already knows which task, customer and project it belongs to.

Native billable and approval: separate what you charge and validate it before generating the bill.

Budget against actuals in real time warns when a project starts to overrun.

Invoice straight from approved billable hours, idempotent so the same hour is never charged twice.

Real margin per period: billable value against versioned, point-in-time labor cost, visible only to those with cost permission.

Logging hours without friction

Start the timer when you begin the task or enter the hours later, whichever you prefer. Each entry is linked from the start to the task, the project and the customer, so the team spends seconds logging and you get a faithful picture of where time went.

From entry to invoice

Mark what is billable, send the period for approval and compare budget with actuals. At close, reports and CSV export deliver hours by person, customer and project, ready to bill by the hour.

Hours become revenue

Turn a period’s approved billable hours into a customer invoice in one click, idempotent so no hour is ever billed twice. Prepaid hour packages (retainers) draw down as the team logs work, with balance, percent consumed and a depletion alert. Utilization tracks billable hours against each person’s capacity, and health alerts flag a billable entry with no description or a day over the limit.

Use cases

An agency that bills by the hour

Each task logs billable hours; at month-end, the per-customer report becomes the basis for the invoice.

A project on a tight budget

The manager tracks budget against actuals and reacts as soon as hours get close to the limit.

Approval before billing

The contributor submits the period, the lead reviews and approves, and only then do the hours enter the customer’s bill.

Frequently asked
Can I log hours without using the timer?

Yes. You can start the timer when you begin the task or enter the hours manually later, whichever you prefer.

How do I separate what I can charge the customer?

Just mark the hours as billable; the rest stays visible but out of the bill.

Do the hours go through any kind of approval?

Yes. The contributor submits the period and the lead reviews and approves it before the hours enter the invoice.

Is time logging linked to projects and tasks?

Yes. The timesheet lives inside your projects, so every hour you log is already linked to the task, the customer and the project.

Can I track if a project is going over budget?

Yes. Budget against actuals shows in real time when hours pass what was agreed.

What reports exist on logged hours?

Reports show hours by person, customer and project, ready for CSV export.

Can I export the hours data to use in another system?

Yes. CSV export takes the hours data wherever you need it.

Is this feature included in the free plan?

Yes. It is free to use, and it stays free only while the month's infrastructure usage always stays below US$20; once you go over, you pay the month's consumption.

How does this help bill customers by the hour?

Hours marked billable and already approved become the direct basis for the period's invoice.

Can I turn logged hours into an invoice?

Yes. Approved billable hours from a board in a period become a customer invoice in one click, and it is idempotent, so the same hour is never charged twice.

Does it show the real margin on billable work?

Yes. It compares billable value with versioned, point-in-time labor cost and shows margin and margin percent for the period, visible only to those with cost permission.
