Measurement
Track your budget through time or costs
Every report you need — configured your way, always up to date.
Tracked hours flow straight into a polished invoice — no copy-paste, no manual math.
Use this page when you need to follow a client project from assigned tasks to tracked hours, budget status, and billing review. The practical goal is a clean project record: who worked on each task, which hours belong to the client, which hours stay internal, and whether the project is still inside the budget you set.
For a client project in Asana, keep the task list as the work plan and attach time to the task where the work happened. Everhour syncs Asana projects, task titles, custom fields, and tags for reporting, so the client view stays tied to the same structure the team uses to manage delivery.
A useful client project record starts with clear task ownership, task names that match the deliverable, and a consistent rule for time entry. Team members can use embedded Everhour controls inside Asana tasks, then add a description that explains the client-facing work completed during that entry.
Set the project budget according to the commercial model: hourly-rate, fixed-fee, or non-billable. Keep billable and non-billable hours separate before invoice review, because internal coordination, rework, and client-approved delivery work rarely belong in the same billing bucket. Exportable reports then give managers a project, task, and member breakdown for review.
Client project tracking breaks down when the budget number is visible but the cause is unclear. A project that shows 62 tracked hours means little unless the report also shows which tasks consumed those hours, which work was billable, and which team members drove the total.
Use budget alerts as management signals, not after-the-fact explanations. Everhour supports configurable email alert thresholds at any percentage, plus project summaries for total time, budget remaining, and billable versus non-billable hours. That lets a manager act while the project can still be corrected.
A one-off check is enough when you need a quick read on a single project, a short delivery period, or a client update that does not feed payroll or invoicing. In that case, a simple project summary and export can answer the immediate question.
A managed workflow is the better fit when tracked time feeds client billing, manager approval, budget alerts, and accounting handoff. Everhour keeps the work inside Asana while adding embedded timers, synced task context, detailed reports, approvals, and exportable records around the client project.

Set up the project so each task represents work the team can assign, track, and review. Use task names that describe the deliverable or client request, then track time on the task where the work happened. This keeps project reports readable by task, member, billable status, and date.
Include time spent on client-approved delivery work and any internal work you need for cost visibility. Mark billable and non-billable time consistently so reports can show the full effort without sending every hour to the client invoice. That separation protects both billing accuracy and margin analysis.
Review active client budgets at least weekly, and review faster when the project has a short deadline or a tight fixed fee. Budget checks should compare tracked time, billable status, remaining budget, and high-consumption tasks. A weekly review gives managers time to adjust scope, staffing, or approvals before overrun becomes unavoidable.
Vague time entries make reports hard to defend. Entries such as "project work" or "updates" do not explain the client deliverable, the task completed, or the reason the time was billed. Clear descriptions tied to Asana tasks make budget review and invoice review faster.
Keep non-billable client time in the project record when it affects cost, staffing, or margin. Excluding it makes the project look healthier than it is. The key is classification: non-billable time should stay visible in reports while remaining separate from billable totals used for invoicing.
Everhour embeds tracking controls inside Asana and syncs Asana projects, task titles, custom fields, and tags into its reporting layer. Teams can track time from Asana tasks while managers review the same project structure in Everhour reports, budgets, and timesheets.
Everhour supports hourly-rate, fixed-fee, and non-billable project budgets with configurable email alert thresholds. Managers can review total time, remaining budget, and billable versus non-billable hours, then export detailed reports for client, billing, or internal project review.
Keep Asana as the task workspace and use Everhour for embedded timers, synced project context, budget alerts, and exportable client reports that support cleaner billing.
