Advantages of time management in Google Sheets
See below the main advantages of managing time in Google Sheets using the Day.io integration.
Track project costs in detail
With the Day.io integration you track your project costs in real time. Track the time and value invested in each work activity in Google Sheets, and get the data for sound decisions. Day.io also works with other Google tools and with project tools such as Asana and Trello.
Measure time worked in Google Sheets
Right inside Google Sheets, you can measure the time worked on each spreadsheet. You don't need to switch screens or build the habit of using a new tool. With just one click, you start or stop the timer and information is automatically saved to Day.io.
Approve work time on Google Sheets tasks
Once the time is logged, the employee sends it to the manager for approval. This simple step lets the manager check the data and keep time and cost on track through the project.
Real-time reports
You can generate different types and views of reports to make your analysis easier. Organise data by project, client, employee, location or task. In each report, filter by date, approved tasks, and more.
