Verified labor data finance can rely on

Most labor data isn't defensible in an audit. Estimates, retroactive edits, and disconnected tools make it impossible for finance and auditors to trust what they’re seeing.

ClickTime turns raw work hours into finance ready data: every entry is categorized at the source, reviewed through predefined approvals, and preserved with a complete audit trail. The result is a single source of clean, defensible labor cost data finance can use for reporting, audits, and decision-making, without reconciliation or guesswork.

‍

Coded at entry

Hours carry their project, phase, cost center, and classification from the moment they’re logged.

Approved and traceable

Approvals, timestamps, and change history sit behind every figure, with reasons recorded.

Defensible on exam

The same record substantiates SOX, DCAA, and R&D claims.

We went through our first Single Audit, resulting in zero findings and no suggestions for improvement. You just can’t achieve that without a great time-tracking system that your Finance team can rely on.

Stop reconstructing last year’s hours when someone asks

  • Capture hours where the work happens. ClickTime reads connected work systems—Jira, GitHub, Zoom, Google and Outlook calendars, Google Workspace and Microsoft 365—never screens, keystrokes, or messages.
  • Let AI map the activity to your cost codes. Optional AI mapping turns raw activity into coded hours and matches internal project names to the categories finance reports on, with people reviewing before anything posts.
  • Replace estimates with actuals. Over half of organizations still allocate labor from leadership guesses; ClickTime replaces that with hours people actually recorded.

Defend R&D credits and software capitalization from the same record

  • Tie qualified hours to the work that produced them. Every hour carries the project and phase it came from, so substantiation doesn’t rest on engineers recalling a year they’ve stopped thinking about.
  • Separate development-stage work at entry. Preliminary, development, and post-implementation hours are coded as they’re logged, giving you the detail behind every capitalized number.
  • Show the method, not just the total. Approval history and change logs document how each figure was reached and who signed off.

Answer grant auditors and DCAA without a separate process

  • Charge every hour to its award when it’s entered. Cost objective, funding source, and contract line are applied at entry rather than allocated after the period closes.
  • Meet the timekeeping practices examiners look for. Daily entry, employee-entered time, supervisor approval, and a documented reason for every change.
  • Catch miscoding before it becomes a correcting entry. Time charged to the wrong award surfaces in review, not in the audit.

Feature FAQs

Does ClickTime support DCAA or R&D tax credit compliance?

Yes—ClickTime's approval workflow and change history create the verifiable records these requirements demand. See DCAA features and R&D tax credit tracking.

Does ClickTime AI monitor employee activity?

No. ClickTime AI reads calendar events and connected work—not keystrokes, screens, or device activity.

Can ClickTime support R&D tax credit documentation?

Yes. Custom fields let you tag time entries by activity type, project phase, or any classification your tax advisor requires. Approval workflows and audit trails provide the defensible documentation auditors need.

How does time tracking help with software capitalization and R&D tax credits?

Software capitalization under ASC 350-40 and R&D tax credits under Section 41 both require documented proof of how development hours were spent. ClickTime categorizes time entries against CapEx, OpEx, and R&D designations at the point of entry—creating audit-ready records that don't require retroactive reconstruction. The built-in approval workflow adds the verification trail auditors expect.
