Billing clients · Web dashboard
Client invoices: billing clients for tracked time
Set up clients and hourly rates once, then turn a period's billable time into an invoice: what is billed, how a draft is reviewed, what is checked before issuing, numbering, paid and void, and the PDF your client receives.
Time Tracking · Web dashboard
Overlapping time entries: when two tasks report the same minutes
Why overlaps happen, how Colabio counts each minute once, the Overlap mark and Review overlaps, what members, reviewers and managers do to resolve one, and how manual time and exports handle it.
Privacy and monitoring · Web dashboard and desktop app
What is captured while you track time: the per-member switches
Screenshots, apps and websites, screen recording and AI analysis are switches a manager sets per member. What each one collects, what is always collected, where members see their own rules, and how they are told when a switch changes.
Project Management · Web dashboard
Planned hours and budget variance: reading a project against its budget
Set it up in three steps, then read the Budget card: budget after scope changes, used, remaining estimate, forecast and status. How scope changes and the budget history work, who can change the plan, and the alert that warns before a budget runs out.
Time Tracking · Web dashboard
Time entry corrections and history: what is kept when time is edited
Every edit, split, delete, move and manual-time change keeps the original with the reason and the person; corrected entries are marked Adjusted and the History action shows before and after.
Time Tracking · Web dashboard
Billable time and work categories: how tracked time is classified
Billable, non-billable with a kind of work, or not set: what the three states mean, how each tracked hour is counted, where the split shows in utilization, timesheets and exports, and who can change it.
Time Tracking · Web dashboard
Capacity, holidays and leave: how utilization is calculated
Expected weekly hours, organization holidays and recorded leave become available time; how utilization, the leaderboard and alerts read against it, where each setting lives, and who can change it.
Teams & Organizations · Web dashboard
Roles and permissions: who can see and do what
What organization managers, product managers, team leaders and employees can each see and do, how owners and Team Lead+ work, and how to set up roles for a new company.
