Projects

Each job for a client with what surrounds it: tasks, hours, budget, invoices, expenses and notes. To know whether it's paying off.

The board#

ColumnWhat for
ActiveWork in progress.
PausedAlready started, on hold.
CompletedDelivered.
QuotedThe client hasn't confirmed yet.

Drag a card to change its status or order. On mobile, press and hold it. To take it to another column, hold it at the edge of the screen for a moment: the board moves to the next one.

  • At the top, what's been paid and what's pending this year on confirmed work. Quotes don't count.
  • On each card, up to three pending tasks, which you can tick from there.
  • Right-click: open, time it, duplicate or delete. The card being timed shows the time.

A project's page#

Details and tasks, hours, invoices and expenses, and notes. Everything is edited in place: click, type and Enter. Figures accept a sum (“2000+500”). ⌘Z undoes.

Not using a module? Right-click it and “Hide”. It comes back from the ⋯ with everything it had.

Identity#

An emoji to recognise it, a colour for its hour bars, the client and the dates.

Budget and rate#

The budget, in any currency, is converted to euros. The hourly rate is the one in Settings → Tax unless you set one for the project.

Tasks#

  • Add: type in “New task” and Enter.
  • Priority: the dot on the right; each click moves it up a level.
  • Reorder: drag; on mobile, press and hold it, then move it. The ✕ on hover deletes it.
  • Keyboard: ↑ ↓, Space ticks it, ⌘↑ ⌘↓ moves it, ↩ renames it, ⌫ deletes it.
  • Right-click: done or not done, priority, time it (the task becomes the note), duplicate or delete.

Hours#

The total in large type, “of N h” in the verdict's colour (green on track, amber at the limit, red over) and one bar per week. You log them in a single bar: date, hours and what on. The real €/h is behind the i. Right-click an entry to repeat it today, time the same thing again or delete it.

Timer#

With the hours empty, the + in that bar is ▶: press it when you start and ■ when you finish. It logs itself.

WhereWhat it does
Project page▶ in the Hours bar; while running, the clock with the note, pause and stop.
Sidebar and mobileA pill with the project and the time so far. Tap it to go to the project.
Browser tabThe time and the project (“0:42 · Web Acme”).
Board and ⌘KRight-click the card, or “Time …” in ⌘K.
Another deviceIt keeps running: start it on the Mac and stop it on your phone.

Stopping logs it on the day it started, to the nearest quarter hour (in Settings, also to the tenth or the minute). Under a minute isn't logged; over ten hours, it asks first. ⌘Z puts it back on pause. One at a time: starting another stops and logs the previous one.

Without an hourly rate there's no profitability to compute: the i takes you to set one.

Linked invoices and expenses#

Each invoice with its status dot and base; each expense with its supplier. The + opens the ones without a project yet; here they're linked, not created. The ✕ unlinks without deleting.

Notes#

A free sheet with formatting: select text and the bar appears, or write in Markdown (“# ”, “- ”, “> ”). Links open with ⌘-click. It saves itself.
