Track billable time where the work happens
A one-click timer on every Deal, Lead, Contact and Account. Log hours, apply per-person rates, and turn time into clean billing reports — without ever leaving Zoho CRM.
Everything you need to bill accurately
Built for services teams who invoice by the hour and are tired of reconstructing timesheets from memory.
A live timer on every record
Open a Deal, hit Start, and just work. Pause for interruptions, resume when you're back, and stop when you're done — the elapsed time is captured to the second.
- Works on Deals, Leads, Contacts and Accounts
- One running timer per person, so hours never double-count
- Add manual entries when you forgot to start the clock
Per-person rates, snapshotted
Give every person — CRM user or external contractor — their own hourly rate. Each entry stores the rate at the moment it was logged, so raising someone's rate tomorrow never rewrites yesterday's billing.
- Bill contractors without buying extra CRM seats
- Mark work billable or non-billable in one click
- Amounts calculate automatically
Reports that drive invoices
The Reports tab rolls every entry into totals, charts and breakdowns by person, task and record. Filter by date range and billable status, then export for invoicing or payroll.
- Total hours & total billable value at a glance
- Filter by person, module, date range and billable / non-billable
- Access control — people see only their own time until an admin grants more

Frequently asked
Which records can I track time on?
Deals, Leads, Contacts and Accounts. Each entry is tied to the specific record so your reports show exactly where the time went.
Can I track time for contractors who don't have a CRM login?
Yes. External people can be added as time loggers with their own hourly rate — no extra CRM seat required.
What happens to past entries if I change someone's rate?
Nothing. Each entry snapshots the rate at the moment it was logged, so historical billing never changes when you update a rate.
Who can see the reports?
By default each person sees only their own time. Org-wide reporting stays locked until an admin explicitly grants report access to specific users.
Does my data leave Zoho CRM?
No. All time-tracking data lives in your own CRM modules. The only thing sent to us is an install/uninstall notification (name and email) for support.
Can I add time I forgot to track live?
Yes — add a manual entry with the duration and date, and it's treated just like a timed entry in reports.
