Use this page to structure client billing around Asana projects used for matters, cases, or client workstreams. The practical goal is a clean set of time records that a partner, billing manager, or administrator can review before charges reach the client. Each entry should answer four questions: who did the work, which matter it belongs to, how long it took, and whether the time is billable.
Law firms should keep billing review separate from task completion. A task can be done while its time entry still needs approval, correction, or exclusion from the invoice. Treat the Asana task as the work context, then use the billing workflow to confirm rates, billable status, descriptions, and any non-billable internal activity before invoice preparation.
Client billing breaks down when every hour on a matter looks invoice-ready. Attorneys and staff need a consistent way to mark client-chargeable work apart from administration, training, write-offs, internal meetings, or business development. A useful record keeps non-billable time visible for workload and profitability review while keeping it out of the amount sent to the client.
Descriptions matter more in law firm billing than in generic project reporting. A vague entry such as "research" creates review friction. A stronger entry names the matter task and the work performed, such as "Reviewed discovery responses for Smith deposition prep." The description does not need privileged detail, but it should give the reviewer enough context to approve or adjust the charge.
A reliable law firm workflow gives each week a review point. Timekeepers submit project or working hours, the reviewer checks totals and descriptions, and corrections happen before the billing file moves forward. This prevents late edits from appearing after invoices are drafted and reduces disputes over missing, duplicated, or misclassified entries.
Approval status should carry real meaning. Submitted time is ready for review, approved time is usable for billing, rejected time needs correction, and partially approved time records the accepted portion without losing the original context. A locked period protects completed billing cycles from casual edits, which is essential when client invoices, payroll review, or management reports rely on the same time data.
A one-off billing check is enough when a firm needs to review a single matter, a short project, or a small batch of entries before invoicing. The reviewer can confirm the matter, person, date, duration, description, and billable status, then export or hand off the approved set for invoice preparation.
A managed workflow becomes necessary when multiple timekeepers, recurring matters, partner approvals, and client billing cycles overlap. Everhour can sit on top of Asana work with submitted timesheets, approval decisions, locked time, billable and non-billable reporting, and exportable records. That gives law firms a durable path from task work to billing review without rebuilding the same evidence each month.

Use Asana projects as the matter or client work context, then keep time entries tied to the relevant task, person, date, and billing status. The cleanest structure lets reviewers filter by matter, timekeeper, and billable status before invoice preparation. Avoid mixing unrelated client work in one project if the billing review needs matter-level separation.
Review the timekeeper, matter, task, logged date, duration, description, billable status, and approval status. A billing reviewer should also check whether internal work stayed non-billable and whether vague descriptions need correction. Approved time should be the source for the invoice handoff, not an informal list rebuilt from memory.
Keep write-offs and internal work visible as non-billable time instead of deleting the entries. Deleted entries hide workload and profitability signals. Non-billable records let the firm see the full effort behind a matter while keeping excluded work out of the client-facing billing amount.
Late edits after billing review create the most cleanup because the invoice, payroll review, and management report can stop matching. Lock completed periods after approval so regular members cannot change approved entries casually. Corrections should move through the reviewer instead of changing the billing record silently.
Daily entry gives better descriptions because the work is still fresh. Weekly review gives partners and administrators a manageable approval cycle. The strongest workflow uses daily logging by timekeepers and weekly approval by the reviewer, so the firm captures detail without turning every day into a billing meeting.
Everhour Timesheets collect weekly project hours and working hours so users can submit time for review. Admins can approve, reject, partially approve, and lock submitted entries before the same records support billing review, payroll checks, or reporting.
Everhour embeds tracking controls inside Asana tasks and syncs Asana project names, task titles, custom fields, and tags for reporting. Law firms can review billable and non-billable time by matter context, then export reports when billing or accounting needs a structured handoff.
Use Everhour Timesheets to submit, approve, partially approve, and lock matter time before billing review. Everhour keeps Asana work connected to cleaner client billing records.
