So I was recently at a Colorado Avalanche game having the best time when in between periods i thought, “Oh crap, i need to get my accounting squared away for the accountant and soon.” And while normally, hourly billing, is a pain to balance out – knowing that my hourly billing software was ready with features to transfer all my invoices to quickbooks, my clients and all the other stuff comes with – i was able to watch the game in peace.
Some of you might say, “Oh big deal.” You are the people who are OCD about organization. I’ve used scrap notebooks with time logs, notepad docuuments and others, but those notes usually get all mixed up with notes on phone calls, new projects, new tasks. Somehow those time log/notes never get into any form of software for billing and sometimes get tossed during clean-up. I’ve forced myself to enter these times into my hourly billing software solution, so that I can truly be a “paperless” office and not miss billing for any time.
