Projects
What is a Project? KB id: 19
A project is a way to group hours for a client or for internal hours. It gives you a more defined way to classify your hours, and helps your client organize the time you work in terms of budgets, etc. A Project can be Time/Hourly or Fixed Rate. Importantly, Projects inherit the hour type profile from their client. For example, if a client has a billable hour type, hours entered and allocated to a project will be billable as well. Fixed Rate projects behave a little differently.
Projects
What is a Fixed Rate Project? KB id: 20
Many times, clients require a project be completed for a fixed amount or total. With Breeasy Money you can create a Fixed Rate Project with a set currency and amount. Hours for Fixed Rate Projects are considered billable, but do not contain a daily amount. Fixed Rate projects can be invoiced by percentage or by a specific amount. It's good practice to invoice a percentage of the project upfront.
Projects

When work is performed without a client or agency account, these hours are classified as Internal Hours. As with client accounts, you can create internal projects to better identify and track you internal time. This gives you greater insight into your day, week, and month.
