|
|
|
|
|
|
• Who you are.
• Which client you are working on.
• What type of task you are working on.
• What billing rate to use based on who's logged in, who the client is and which

|
|
|
|
|
|

dockets and move them around for each staff member in your office. Once you have the dockets entered the way
you like, you can 'lock' the dockets so that they can't be changed, except by an administrator. |
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|

and organize all your time docket entries made in your office. |
|
|
|
|
|
• The Advanced Search feature allows you to
perform queries on your dockets so you can see exactly what you want to see. For example, you can list all dockets
allocated to a client since the last invoice, or, you can list all dockets made by a staff member

and final dollar amounts for any of the entries. You can also adjust the final 'total time' and the final 'dollar

where on your local computer or network drive they may be stored. |

that Document Vault category will automatically display all the files in that folder. |

open the original file in the default program. |
|

Merge Client Into Documents |

Pad and save the resulting merged document, Client Track will automatically save all the client's merge
result into their respective Document Vault category. This means you have a record
