QuickBooks for Mac 2014 User’s Guide 126
4 In the Customer:Job field, enter the customer for whom the work was performed. If you are tracking
individual jobs as well, enter the customer name, a colon, and a job name. Press Tab.
o Non-billable time: If you do not intend to invoice your customer, you still may want to enter the
customer or job name. For example, if you spent the time correcting an error on a job, filling in
the Customer:Job field gives you a record of your non-billable time for the job. You can display
non-billable time on time reports.
o Overhead: If the time is truly overhead and has no association with any customer or job, then
leave the Customer:Job field blank.
5 Enter the name of the service item that matches this type of work and press Tab.
6 In the Duration field, enter the number of hours worked on this date and this job, and press Tab.
7 If you are NOT going to invoice your customer for this time, clear the Billable checkbox.
8 (Optional) In the Notes field, enter any additional information you want to record about this activity.
Editing time entries
You can change time entries after you’ve entered them.
To edit a weekly timesheet:
1 Choose Employees > Time Tracking > Use Weekly Timesheet.
2 In the Name field, enter the name of the person who performed the work.
3 If the week you want to see is not the current week, change the date range of the timesheet:
o To change to the previous week, click Prev Week; to change to the next week, click Next week.
o To change to any other week, click Set Date and enter a date in the week you want to display.
4 Change, as needed, the entries for that week.
To edit a single activity entry:
1 Choose Employees > Time Tracking > Enter Single Activity.
2 Press Prev until the entry you want appears.
3 Change, as needed, any of the information shown.
What happens if you change the time?
QuickBooks lets you change the time you originally entered, but it won't update any transactions based on that
time. The same is true for the other parts of a time entry (customer or job name, or service item).
Tracking mileage
Mileage is a common expense for a lot of businesses. You can either charge customers for mileage you drive while
doing business with them, or you can deduct your mileage from your taxes.
