Projects, tasks and timesheets

Mera Work includes project and task management with reporting. You create projects, add tasks to them, allocate tasks to people, and then review the hours logged against projects and tasks in reports. Project and task time logs can also support billing conversations with clients.

Yes. People can associate their work time with the projects and tasks assigned to them. Because Mera Work already records tracked time from the desktop app, the project and task hours sit alongside the activity data, which reduces missing or vague time entries.

Time Entry is a page in the sidebar where you manage and view time entries for a date range. Access is controlled by role, with separate View Time Entry and Manage Time Entry permissions.

Yes. Tasks carry Estimated Hours and Logged Hours, and the project reports show them side by side. This helps you see which work is taking longer than planned.

It lists, by date, the Project Name, Task Name, Estimated Hours, Logged Hours, Start Time, End Time and Final Hours. Use it to see how time was spent on projects and tasks day by day.

1. Open Reports and choose Daily Time Entry.
2. Choose the date range and apply it.
3. Select Export if you need a copy of the data.

The Project Report summarises your projects with its Project Name, Project Owner, Estimated Hours, Logged Hours and Final Hours. It is the quickest way to compare estimated and logged hours across your projects.

The User Task report shows time for a person across projects and tasks. Pick a member, and the report lists the Member, Project, Logged Hours and Final Hours.

Yes. The Project Report gives the project level view and the User Task and Daily Time Entry reports give the task and person level views. Together they give separate views of effort.
