Best Practices for Time & Expenses
To maintain the accuracy of time and expense data in Beeye, it's crucial to follow certain best practices that ensure not only precision but also the efficiency of time and cost management within your organization. Here are some recommendations:
- Weekly Entry: Encourage your team members to enter their times directly from their schedule, which they review at least once a week. This helps to keep a regular and accurate track of worked hours and minimizes forgetting or errors.
- Manager Approval: Implement a process where each resource submits their time sheets to their manager for approval. This adds a layer of verification to ensure that the entered times are accurate and reflect the actual work performed.
- Monthly Project Review: Encourage project managers to review the time spent on projects at least once a month. This review allows identifying deviations from the initial budget and taking corrective actions if necessary.
- Training and Awareness: Ensure that all Beeye users are well-trained and aware of the importance of the accuracy of time and expense data. Regular training sessions and reminders about best practices can help maintain a high level of discipline in time entry.
- Advanced Features Usage: Take advantage of Beeye's advanced features, like automated scheduling and views that show projects close to their time budget or exceeding it. These tools can help to anticipate and proactively manage expenses.
- Audits and Control: Conduct periodic audits of time and expense data to verify their accuracy. This can be done internally or with the help of the Beeye team if needed.
