Custom fields can be added to Projects, Clients, Tasks, and Users.

You can use custom fields to keep track of internal notes, codes, departments, locations, purchase orders, important dates, or any other custom information.

For example, you could mark some projects or tasks as Capex or Opex, some clients as internal, or some users as contractors or full time employees.

If you need to capture more data on the Track page instead, you can add numeric custom fields to the Add time log form. Learn more here

Custom fields can be added as columns to the Detailed view and exported in the detailed report:
