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.
If your team plans Asana work with story points or similar effort signals, you need time records tied to the same tasks. The practical goal is not to force every point into a fixed hour value. The goal is to keep estimated effort, actual logged time, task context, and approval status visible enough for managers to review the work.
A clean workflow separates the planning signal from the time record. Store the estimate where your team expects it, then log actual time against the Asana task as work happens. Each entry needs the task, project, date, duration, person, and work description, because those details make the hours useful after the sprint ends.
Story points work best as a planning field, while time entries work as operational records. Treating a point total as a billable hour total creates a weak invoice and a weak payroll review. A task with 5 points still needs actual time logged by the person who worked on it, with the date and project attached.
A useful review compares the point estimate with the actual time after work is complete. One task can carry a point value for planning, an estimated time value for scheduling, and logged time for reporting. That structure lets a manager see whether the estimate was useful without replacing recorded hours with planning shorthand.
The task record should make the work traceable. Use the Asana task as the anchor, then keep project, task title, assignee, tags, custom fields, and comments consistent enough for reporting. Everhour syncs Asana project names, task titles, custom fields, and tags, so the time report can follow the same structure the team already uses for delivery.
The common mistake is logging time outside the task context and trying to reconcile it later. A line that says "development, 6 hours" creates extra cleanup. A better entry ties 6 hours to the specific Asana task, project, person, date, and description, so review, billing, and delivery reporting all point to the same work item.
A one-off setup is enough when one manager needs to compare a few estimated tasks with actual hours for a single sprint. Keep the point field, log actual time on the task, and review the difference at the end of the period. That lightweight process works when no invoice, payroll review, or approval trail depends on the record.
A managed workflow fits when weekly submissions, approvals, locked periods, or client billing matter. Everhour Timesheets collect project hours and working hours by person, then let users submit time for review. Admins can approve, reject, partially approve, and lock entries, so Asana task work becomes a controlled record before billing or payroll review.

Story points should stay separate from logged hours unless your team has a written internal conversion rule. Points describe estimated effort for planning, while time entries record actual work. Use the point value to judge estimating accuracy, then use the logged hours for timesheets, reports, budget review, and billing.
Track the task, project, person, date, duration, and work description. Keep the point value or estimate on the task, then log actual time against that same task as work happens. This gives managers one place to compare planned effort with actual hours without rebuilding the record manually.
Story points can support planning notes, but billable records need actual time, rates, billable status, and enough task detail to explain the work. A client invoice should use approved billable time and the commercial terms attached to the project, not a point total that only represents estimated effort.
The biggest mistake is separating logged time from the Asana task that carried the estimate. Once time sits in a separate spreadsheet or generic weekly note, the manager loses task-level context. Keep the actual time on the task so reports can compare estimate, work performed, and project totals.
Review points against actual time at the end of the sprint, billing period, or reporting cycle your team already uses. A weekly review works for active delivery teams because missing entries are still fresh. Longer gaps make corrections harder and weaken the approval trail.
Everhour Timesheets collect weekly project hours and working hours by person, then route submitted time through approval. Managers can approve, reject, partially approve, and lock entries, which gives Asana task work a controlled review step before payroll, billing, or reporting uses the hours.
Everhour syncs Asana projects, task titles, custom fields, and tags into its reporting layer. That lets teams review logged time with the same task structure they use in Asana, including estimate-related fields that help compare planned effort with actual work.
Track Asana task hours, review weekly submissions, and lock approved records before billing or payroll. Everhour turns estimated effort into approved timesheets.
