Online timesheet features
Everything between a logged hour and a paid invoice
time2cost covers the full project-services loop, so teams stop stitching together spreadsheets, approval emails and billing tools.

Assign approvers and sub-approvers per project. They approve or reject time entries and expenses, and approved records are locked.

Expense tracking
Capture expenses by type, submit them for approval, and bill approved expenses to the client on an invoice.
Resource allocation
Allocate people to projects from either side — by user or by project — and manage members and approvers in one place.
GST invoices from timesheets
Draft invoices from approved billable time and expenses, add manual lines, apply HSN/SAC and CGST, SGST/UTGST or IGST, issue them and record payments.
Organisation masters
Maintain client groups, clients, departments, designations, branches, roles, leave types, activities, sub-activities and expense types.

FAQ
Common questions
What is online timesheet software?
Online timesheet software lets employees record the hours they work against projects and activities in a web browser, so managers can approve them and finance can bill clients accurately. time2cost adds leave, expenses and GST-ready invoicing on top.
Is time2cost suitable for Indian businesses?

How is time entered?
You can enter a single entry with a duration or from–to times, fill a weekly timesheet grid, and review entries in a list or monthly calendar.
Who approves timesheets and expenses?
Approvers and sub-approvers assigned to each project approve or reject time and expenses. Leave approval is handled by administrators.
