About the Timers Window

The Timers window shows all active timed slips, whether they are linked to a project or not, and lets you start and pause the timer for any of those slips. You can open the Timers window by choosing Window > Timers.

When you create a new timed or fixed slip, the slip is automatically added to the list of active slips in the Timers window. You can start the timer for a working slip by right-clicking the slip and choosing Start Timer or from the Timers window. If you have created different timer entries for a slip, then you can add a comment for each timer entry. For example, these comments can be used to describe the work you are doing. To add a comment for a timer entry, select a slip in the Timers window and click the bubble shaped button.

Billings enables you to add a new timed slip by clicking the + button in the Timers window. This creates a new timed slip that is not linked to any project. When you are done timing the slip, you can click the Checkmark button to mark it as complete, link it to a project, and make it ready to be invoiced.

In case you are working with another application and wish to show/hide the Timers window or start a new timed slip right away, you can set up hot keys in Billings > Preferences. For more information, see About Hot Keys.
