Set Your QuickBooks Class For Each Timesheet Entry

ClickTime supports importing time data into QuickBooks and associating that time with QuickBooks Classes. Through the use of a custom field in ClickTime, you can define the QuickBooks Class for people, clients, jobs, tasks or divisions. Last week we extended these capabilities to enable selecting the Class as each timesheet entry is created. This creates greater flexibility for ClickTime customers who utilize class tracking in QuickBooks.

QB_Class_Custom_FieldCreate the QuickBooks Class custom field in your ClickTime account by following these steps:

  1. Sign in as a ClickTime administrator, go to your Company Preferences and click the Custom Fields option.
  2. Click the "Add Custom Field" button.
  3. Enter "QB_Export_Class" as the custom field name.
  4. Enter a display name that describes your class values (e.g. profit center, location, etc.).
  5. Select "Timesheet Entry" as the association.
  6. Enter your class values in the field provided with each value on its own line.
  7. Click the "Save" button.

That's it! Now when you enter time on your timesheet, the Class value can be selected. The Class information will be transferred automatically to QuickBooks the next time you use the ClickTime QuickBooks Connector.

The ClickTime Connector for use with QuickBooks® seamlessly transfers time and expense sheet data to QuickBooks Pro, QuickBooks Premier, and QuickBooks Enterprise (2006-2012). The QuickBooks Connector communicates directly with QuickBooks, making it more efficient than traditional IIF export/import methods.

ClickTime 6.87

With the release of ClickTime version 6.87, we added the ability to duplicate clients and introduced other enhancements as follows:

  1. Duplicate a Client – You can now easily create a new client by duplicating an existing client. When duplicating the client, you will have the option to duplicate the billing rates, custom field values, and jobs associated with the client. When you duplicate the client's jobs, you may also duplicate each job's structure (e.g. phases and sub-phases) and restriction settings.

  2. Desktop Application – We improved tabbing between fields for people who prefer using keyboard-based field-to-field navigation.
