Frequently Asked Questions

What is time and expense tracking software?

Time and expense tracking software helps businesses record the hours employees spend on projects together with the costs and expenses associated with that work. By combining time, project costs, budgets, billing, and reporting, businesses can understand what projects cost, manage spending, improve invoicing, and make better decisions about profitability.

What is the difference between time tracking and time and expense tracking?

Basic time tracking tells you how many hours people worked. Time and expense tracking adds the financial context around that work. It connects employee hours with project expenses, labor costs, budgets, billable work, and client billing so you can understand not just how long a project took, but what it cost.

How does Apploye track time and expenses?

Employees can record working hours and organize them by project and task. Project expenses and financial information can then be kept alongside that work so managers have a clearer view of total project activity and cost.

Can I track billable and non-billable hours?

Yes. Apploye lets you distinguish billable from non-billable work so you can understand which hours contribute to client revenue and which activities consume internal team capacity.

Can Apploye track project budgets and actual costs?

Yes. Apploye supports project budgets and gives managers visibility into tracked work, spending, and remaining budget. This makes it easier to identify projects that are using more time or money than originally planned.

Can managers approve employee timesheets?

Yes. Managers can review employee timesheets so recorded work can be checked before it affects payroll, reporting, or client billing.

Can tracked time be used for payroll?

Yes. Apploye combines tracked employee hours with pay-related information to help businesses calculate payroll from recorded work data.

Can I create client invoices from tracked work?

Yes. Apploye supports clients, projects, rates, and invoicing so tracked work can stay connected to the people and organizations you bill.

Can employees track time from desktop and mobile?

Yes. Apploye supports desktop, web, and mobile workflows so team members can record their time in the way that best fits how they work.

What reports can I generate?

Does Apploye integrate with other tools?

Yes. Apploye integrates with popular work tools as well as API access for businesses that need to connect time-tracking data with the rest of their workflow.

Is Apploye a PSA platform?

Apploye includes many of the time, project-cost, budget, billing, and reporting capabilities project teams need, but it is designed to be simpler to adopt than a heavyweight professional-services automation platform. It is a strong fit for businesses that want better project financial visibility without implementing a full enterprise PSA system.

Apploye has a free plan for teams of up to 10 users. Paid plans start from $4.50 per user per month when billed annually. Visit the pricing page for current plan details and included features.
