Time Tracking & Price Book
Accountant time tracking & Price Book software
Whether a client calls with a 15-minute S-Corp question or your staff spends three hours reconciling payroll, logging time takes seconds from the Dashboard or inside the project.
Supports 6-minute (0.1 hr) and 15-minute (0.25 hr) billing increments
Price Book & rounding
Raise your firm's hourly rates next year without scrambling unbilled work
Set up your firm's reusable hourly rates (like Partner Rate, Senior Rate, or Bookkeeping Rate) in Settings → Price Book. The moment someone logs an entry, that rate is copied onto the entry—so changing a rate later in your Price Book never rewrites time you already logged.
- Tenths (6 min) or Quarter hours (15 min): Choose your firm's billing increment in Settings. A 20-minute call logs as
0:20and bills automatically as0.4 hr(tenths) or0.5 hr(quarters). - Billable & non-billable tracking: Untick Billable to record internal prep time at no charge without losing visibility into hours spent.
- Log from the Dashboard or the Project: Use the Log time pill on your home Dashboard between calls, or log directly on a project's Time Entries tab.
Audit-clean billing
No manual "Billed" checkboxes—and billed entries are locked
In spreadsheet trackers and basic timers, staff forget to mark hours as billed—leading to awkward double-billing or forgotten revenue. In CPA Relay, adding unbilled time to an invoice marks it billed automatically and freezes the entry so nobody can accidentally alter historical work.
- One-click "Unbilled time" invoicing: Pull all open billable entries on a project onto a new draft invoice at once.
- Billed time is frozen: Once an entry is on an invoice, its hours, rate, date, and project are locked unless removed from the draft invoice first.
- My Time personal sheet: Every team member can open My Time from the bottom bar to review and edit their own unbilled entries across the firm.
