			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Background</h3>
<p>The company needed to track time logged to particular jobs/projects.  The initial idea was to use a site like <a href="http://www.clicktime.com/" target="_blank">ClickTime</a>.  However, for an employee to log time against a job, you would need to tell ClickTime all of your jobs (which would be tedious) or configure an integration app to automatically populate the available jobs/projects.</p>
<h3>Solution</h3>
<p>I created a web application that would allow employees to log time against jobs/projects.  It would search instantly against their project management software for a list of available jobs.  The type of work was categorized for reporting.  Since we would have the employee&#8217;s hours, it would be used for payroll.  I implemented an export feature for preparing the payroll information for ADP and EDH.  Work time for each project was then entered into the project management software to be calculated as job cost.  As a bonus, you could use the gathered data to calculate each employees &#8220;utilization&#8221;.</p>
