Understanding the Dashboard

Check today's time, open your projects, and see billable hours from your home screen

Applies to: Workforce · Premium · LawBillity

The Dashboard is the first screen you see after signing in. Use it to check what you've logged today before you leave, open a project you're working on, or see how much of your team's time is billable.

What Each Widget Shows

Widget
Use it to
Timesheets
Submit your own time from the Submit tab. Approvers can approve their team's time from the Approve tab.
Show My Time Today
See what you've logged today on the Today’s Time tab, and your notes on the Notes tab. If you haven't logged anything yet, it gives you a link to create a time entry. A quick check before you leave for the day.
My Projects
See the projects you're assigned to and their status. Click a project to open it.
Time Entry Status
See where your time entries stand in the approval process.
Billable vs. Non-Billable Hours
See how your time splits between billable and non-billable work. Admins and managers can filter by user group, user, and date to see the whole team.
Set Up Wizard
Admins only, on new accounts. See First-Time Setup Wizard (Admin Guide).

Close a widget you don't need with its X. There's also a gear icon at the top right of the Dashboard.

Getting to Other Pages

The tabs across the top take you to the Dashboard, Calendar, On the Clock (who's working right now), Reports, Contacts, and Documents. Use + Create to add a time entry, expense, client, project, or invoice from any page. See Navigating Time Tracker: The Sidebar & Quick Create Menu.

Why Your Dashboard Looks Different

Admins and managers see every widget, team-wide data, billing summaries, and, on new accounts, the Set Up Wizard. Employees see their own time and the projects they're assigned to, with no billing data, no other people's information, and no admin controls. See What Employees See vs. What Admins See.

Common Problems

  • A project is missing from My Projects. The widget shows only projects you're assigned to. See Managing Project Access and Team Members.
  • Nothing happens when you click Time Entry or Expense Entry in + Create. They open in a separate browser window, and your browser blocked it. Allow pop-ups for secure.ebillity.com and try again.
  • A widget is missing. It may have been closed with its X, or it's one only admins and managers see. See What Employees See vs. What Admins See.
