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 useful Basecamp time report explains where project hours went, who logged them, and which work changed the cost picture. The useful output is a clear summary by project, to-do, list, member, client, and date range, not a raw pile of time entries.
A stakeholder update usually needs three views: total time by project, detail by to-do, and member totals for the same reporting period. Add billable and non-billable time when the report supports client billing, budget review, or internal cost analysis. Keep the date range visible so weekly and monthly numbers do not get mixed.
A project breakdown answers whether one Basecamp project is on track. A to-do breakdown shows which pieces of work consumed the time. A member breakdown explains staffing load. A client view helps separate account-level reporting when client data is part of the workflow. A date-range view separates this week, this month, and the full engagement.
The common mistake is sending one total for every audience. A client usually needs billable time, non-billable context, and invoice backup. A manager usually needs member totals, list-level work patterns, and cost. A delivery lead usually needs open to-dos, completed to-dos, and status by Basecamp project area.
A usable Basecamp time report needs project name, to-do name, list or section, task ID, task status, member, date range, hours, comments, billable time, non-billable time, billable amount, and cost when financial access allows it. These fields connect the reported hours back to the Basecamp work people recognize.
Billable and non-billable time belong in the same review when the report supports pricing, scope control, or client communication. Internal meetings, QA, rework, and admin follow-up can explain why labor cost changed even when the invoice total stays lower. Hidden non-billable time makes utilization and margin look cleaner than the project actually was.
A one-off export is enough for a quick status email, a monthly client backup file, or a simple review of one Basecamp project. Build the report, filter the date range, export the view, and archive the result with the client or project records.
A managed workflow fits recurring reporting. Everhour embeds tracking controls into Basecamp through the browser extension, syncs Basecamp projects, lists, and to-dos into reports, and lets teams build standing views over approved time. Reports can be exported as CSV, Excel/XLSX, or PDF for people who review the numbers outside the tool.

Use project totals for a high-level status update, to-do detail for delivery review, member totals for staffing, and client grouping when the report uses client data. Add the date range to every view. A weekly status report should not blend current work with old discovery, cleanup, or support time.
Yes. Billable time explains the client-facing amount, and non-billable time explains internal cost, scope pressure, and team load. Keep the categories separate in the same report instead of removing non-billable work. Deleted or hidden internal time weakens margin review and makes future estimates less reliable.
Include Basecamp project, to-do, list or section, task ID, task status, member, date, hours, comments, billable status, billable amount, and cost when the reviewer has permission to see money data. These fields let a manager trace a total back to the exact Basecamp work item.
Review active delivery work weekly and client or finance summaries monthly. Weekly review catches missing hours, unusual member totals, and time logged against the wrong to-do while the work is still fresh. Monthly review supports billing backup, cost review, and trend comparison across projects.
Yes, a cross-project report works when the question spans a team, member, or date range. Keep the grouping deliberate. A staffing report should group by member and project. A delivery report should group by project and to-do. Mixing both goals in one table makes the numbers harder to read.
Everhour Overtimes supports daily and weekly overtime limits, regular time, 1.5x overtime, and 2x double overtime. After time is tracked, admins can review overtime in Team Hours and configurable reports, with payroll calculations based on employee hourly cost and tracked time.
Everhour reports can be downloaded as CSV, Excel/XLSX, or PDF. A manager can build a Basecamp report with project, to-do, member, client, date range, billable time, non-billable time, cost, and billable amount columns, then share the export with finance, clients, or stakeholders.
Track Basecamp work in Everhour, review overtime and cost from approved time, and export reports that keep billing, payroll review, and project updates aligned.
