We're glad to have you again, Prostang. Thank you for ensuring that everything is set up correctly.
I'm here to assist you further with the issue of time not being billed against estimates in QBO. Let's ensure that your tracking preferences are properly configured by allowing time to be billable. Here are the necessary steps.
- Go to Settings ⚙ and select Account and settings.
- Select the Time tab.
- Edit the General and Timesheet sections to set your time tracking preferences:
- Who tracks time: Select team members to choose who tracks time.
- Turn the switch on for any team members who need time tracked.
- To allow 1099 contractors to track time, select Show contractors, and turn the setting on. Select Save.
- First day of work week: This affects how employees and contractors view weekly timesheets.
- Show service field: When on, team members who fill out timesheets can specify if activities should be billed to a customer.
- Allow time to be billable: Adds a checkbox on timesheets to specify whether activities should be billed to the customer. Check Show billing rate to users entering time if you want your team members to see the billable rates.
