Use this page when Asana tasks hold the work and you need usable time records around them. The practical goal is a clear view of who spent time on which task, which project absorbed the hours, and whether the work belongs in billing, budget review, or internal capacity planning.
A useful resource management time record connects the person, task, project, date, duration, and work description. For client work, add billable status and the rate rule that applies. For internal planning, keep non-billable work visible so project totals show the full effort, not only client-facing hours.
Start with the task as the smallest unit. A time entry should show the date worked, the person who logged it, the duration, the Asana project, the task title, and a short description that explains the work. Categories, approval status, and billable status make the same record useful for review later.
Rates and budgets turn hours into management signals. Time budgets track hours against a target. Cost budgets compare planned or actual work against a money target. Actual cost comes from logged time and resource rates, so inconsistent rate setup produces unreliable cost reporting even when the hour totals look clean.
A common mistake is treating resource management time as only billable time. Staffing decisions need the whole picture: client delivery, internal coordination, revisions, project management, and non-billable cleanup. Excluding non-billable work makes the schedule look healthier than it is and hides pressure on the people doing the work.
Keep billable status as a classification, not a filter for whether time matters. A designer's 3 hours on a client task, a manager's 1 hour of review, and 30 minutes of internal rework answer different questions. Together, they show cost, utilization, budget burn, and whether future estimates need adjustment.
A one-off time review works for a single project, a short sprint, or a quick staffing question. Export the entries, compare planned work with logged time, and resolve obvious gaps before discussing budget, billing, or capacity. This approach breaks down when multiple projects share the same people and rates.
A managed workflow keeps task time connected to approvals, locked periods, billable and non-billable status, budget alerts, and billing handoff. Everhour adds embedded controls inside Asana, syncs project and task details, supports hourly-rate, fixed-fee, or non-billable budgets, and gives admins reports for billable time, non-billable time, billable amount, and cost.

Useful records tie each time entry to a person, date, duration, project, task, and work description. Approval status and billable status add review context. Categories help when teams need to separate delivery, meetings, QA, revisions, or internal work without creating separate projects for every activity type.
Yes. Non-billable work belongs in resource management time because it affects capacity, cost, and delivery planning. Keep it separate from billable work through billing status or task classification, then review both totals together when checking utilization, project profitability, and future staffing needs.
Rates translate logged time into cost, billable amount, or both. A report that mixes people, tasks, and projects without consistent rate rules produces misleading cost totals. Set the rate source before the reporting period starts, then review exceptions when a project uses task rates, member rates, or fixed-fee handling.
The most common mistake is reviewing raw hour totals without approval status, billable status, or project context. Ten logged hours can mean approved client delivery, unapproved cleanup, internal coordination, or time assigned to the wrong project. Resource decisions need classified records, not only totals.
Review active project time at least weekly. Weekly review catches missing entries, over-budget tasks, approval delays, and staffing pressure before the next planning cycle. High-volume client work needs shorter review windows because late corrections affect invoices, cost reports, and the next week's assignments.
Everhour supports billable and non-billable handling through project billing status, task-level non-billable controls, custom task rates, and member-rate exceptions. Admin reports can show billable time, non-billable time, billable amount, and cost, so Asana project work stays visible without mixing billing categories.
Everhour embeds time tracking controls inside Asana and syncs Asana projects, tasks, names, custom fields, and tags for reporting. Project budgets can use hourly-rate, fixed-fee, or non-billable setup, with configurable email alert thresholds and summaries for total time, budget remaining, and billable versus non-billable hours.
Track Asana task time with billable status, rate rules, approvals, and budget reports in Everhour so resource planning connects directly to client billing and project cost control.
