Billing for time > Creating activities
The term activity is used to describe a task or service provided by your business for which you can track costs and bill customers using time billing invoices. Activities are primarily defined by their type—hourly or non-hourly—and whether they are chargeable or non-chargeable.
To create an activity
1
Go to the Time Billing command centre and click Activities List. The Activities List window appears.

Click New. The Activity Information window appears.

In the Profile view, enter an ID for the activity in the Activity ID field and press Tab.

In the Activity Name field, type a name for the activity.

The default unit of measurement for hourly activities is Hour. If you specified a special billing unit of time in the System view of the Preferences window, this field will still be displayed as Hour, but time will be billed according to the special billing unit.
