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.
A clear view of time and cost across Basecamp projects helps you show who worked, where the time went, which to-dos consumed the most hours, and which work belongs in billing or internal cost review.
Basecamp keeps the project structure: projects, to-do lists, to-dos, assignees, and due dates. Everhour adds the time layer through its browser extension, with tracked hours attached to Basecamp projects, lists, and to-dos. That structure lets the dashboard stay close to the actual work instead of relying on copied notes.
A project breakdown answers budget and client questions: which Basecamp project used the most time, how much cost accumulated, and whether current work matches the expected scope. A to-do breakdown answers delivery questions: which work item took the longest, which list is slowing the project, and which completed items need review.
A member breakdown answers staffing questions. It shows who logged time during the selected date range and where that time landed. A client or date-range view supports weekly and monthly review, especially when you need billable time, non-billable time, labor cost, and project totals in one place.
A dashboard loses value when billable work and internal cost live in separate reports. Keep billable and non-billable time visible in the same review view, then filter or group the report based on the decision in front of you. Billing review needs billable time and amount. Project review needs cost, non-billable effort, and total hours.
The common mistake is treating the dashboard as a display-only summary. A good Basecamp time dashboard needs source-level detail: project name, to-do name, list, task ID, task status, member, date range, billable status, and cost fields where the reviewer has permission to see financial data.
A one-off export is enough when you need a quick status update, a client backup file, or a snapshot for a meeting. Export the filtered view, share the numbers, and keep the report narrow so the reader can trace totals back to Basecamp projects and to-dos.
A managed workflow fits recurring reviews. Everhour can turn approved time into standing reports, budget views, billable and non-billable analysis, and exports in CSV, Excel/XLSX, or PDF. That matters when weekly or monthly reporting feeds client billing, payroll review, project profitability, or budget alerts.

Start with project, date range, total tracked time, billable time, non-billable time, and member totals. Add to-do, list, task status, cost, and billable amount when the dashboard supports billing or budget review. The first view should answer the recurring management question before exposing every available column.
Use a project summary for stakeholders who need status, cost, and trend context. Use a to-do or list breakdown when the update needs delivery detail. Use a member breakdown only when the reader is reviewing staffing, utilization, or approval issues, because people-focused reports can distract from project progress.
Review active project dashboards weekly and close financial dashboards monthly. Weekly review catches missing time, misclassified work, and budget drift while the work is still current. Monthly review gives accounting, billing, and leadership a cleaner period close with fewer late corrections.
Yes, when someone outside the reporting workflow needs the numbers. CSV and Excel/XLSX exports work for spreadsheet review, while PDF works for a stable client or management snapshot. Keep the export filtered to the same date range and grouping used in the dashboard.
Mixed date ranges, hidden non-billable work, unapproved time, and vague grouping create misleading totals. A dashboard should separate review-ready time from time still waiting for correction. It should also keep the Basecamp work structure visible so totals can be traced back to projects, lists, and to-dos.
Everhour Time Tracking lets teams record task and project hours with timers or manual entries, including inside Basecamp through the browser extension. Those entries feed timesheets, reports, budgets, invoices, and payroll review, while admins can use approvals, locked periods, reminders, and timer rules to keep review data controlled.
Everhour reports can be downloaded as CSV, Excel/XLSX, or PDF for spreadsheet work, client sharing, or archive needs. Saved reports can also be scheduled for email delivery with recipients, subject text, and delivery timing.
Track approved Basecamp hours with Everhour Time Tracking, then use the same data for dashboards, billing review, budgets, and payroll checks without rebuilding the report.
