Tracked hours flow straight into a polished invoice — no copy-paste, no manual math.
Create a clear record of time spent on Basecamp work when a client, manager, or finance reviewer needs proof. The practical output is a report you can review by project, to-do, member, client, and date range. That view helps a manager explain where time went, which work is ready to bill, and which totals need checking before a client update or internal review.
Basecamp work is usually organized around projects, to-do lists, to-dos, assignees, due dates, and status. A time report should preserve that structure instead of reducing everything to one total. A weekly delivery review may need member and to-do detail. A client status report may need project, date range, billable time, non-billable time, and cost or amount fields.
A project breakdown shows whether the whole engagement is staying within expectations. A to-do breakdown shows which work item consumed time. A member breakdown shows who worked on each part of the project. A date range shows whether the issue belongs to this week, this month, or a prior billing period.
Billable and non-billable time belong in the same review before the invoice view gets narrowed. Internal review, rework, or administrative follow-up can explain why a project used hours without creating billable amount. That separation also protects billing accuracy because non-billable Basecamp to-dos should remain visible for management reporting while staying out of invoice totals.
A report becomes useful when it has a cadence. Weekly review catches missing entries while the work is fresh. Monthly review fits client billing, budget checks, and finance handoffs. The reviewer should check date range, project, to-do, member, billable status, notes, and any cost or amount fields before sharing the report outside the team.
Exports matter when the reader does not work in the same system. Everhour reports can be downloaded in CSV, Excel/XLSX, or PDF. Pick the format by audience: CSV for spreadsheet work, Excel/XLSX for analysis, and PDF for a stable client or stakeholder attachment.
A one-off spreadsheet is enough when you need a quick status pull, a single project recap, or a filtered list of entries for a meeting. It works best when the date range is narrow, the team is small, and no one needs recurring delivery, budget alerts, or invoice preparation from the same data.
A managed workflow fits recurring billing and ongoing delivery control. Everhour can report Basecamp time by project, to-do, list, task ID, and task status, then use billable rules and rates to prepare invoices. Exports keep finance, clients, and stakeholders supplied without rebuilding the same spreadsheet each week.

Start with the question the report must answer. Use project for total engagement progress, to-do for work-item detail, member for workload or accountability, client for account-level review, and date range for weekly or monthly reporting. Add billable and non-billable fields before sharing totals tied to billing.
Yes, the review view should show both. Billable time supports invoices, while non-billable time explains internal work, rework, coordination, or client support that affects project cost. Hiding non-billable time too early makes a project look cleaner than it is and weakens cost review.
Use weekly review for delivery teams and monthly review for billing or stakeholder summaries. Weekly checks catch missing entries, unclear notes, and work logged to the wrong to-do. Monthly checks confirm the full billing period, client totals, and export package before invoices or management reports go out.
A status report should include the date range, project, completed or active to-dos, tracked time, billable status, and the person responsible for each entry. For financial review, add billable amount, labor cost, or profit fields only for viewers allowed to see money-related information.
The common mistake is exporting one total without enough context. A total-hour figure does not show whether time belongs to a specific to-do, list, member, client, or billing category. Keep the Basecamp work structure in the report so the reviewer can trace each total back to the work performed.
Everhour Billing & Invoicing converts tracked billable time and expenses into invoices, calculates amounts from rates while excluding non-billable tasks, and supports client defaults such as taxes, discounts, and payment terms. Invoices can be exported to QuickBooks Online, Xero, or FreshBooks with status synced back to Everhour.
Everhour Reporting lets teams build reports with columns, grouping, filters, date ranges, and exports in CSV, Excel/XLSX, or PDF. Saved reports can also be sent by email once or on a recurring schedule with selected recipients and delivery timing.
