Q & A: Online Project Management

As you can see from the menu image below, Standard Time® offers a wide range of features in Online Project Management.  It lets you manage projects, employees, clients, tasks, billing rates, and other project management details.  This series of questions and answers will help you understand the product better.  We also offer live product demos and a free 30- trial.

Q: Can I view a list of my projects and tasks?
A: Yes, the program displays all project, and all tasks (actually, in two separate views).  You can assign users to projects and tasks, set starting and due dates, and mark projects as inactive when you are finished with them.  And with our online project management product, you can do this with both Windows and Web clients.  You can even access online projects with the web browser on handheld devices.

Q: Do you integrate with MS Project?
A: Yes, you can bring your MPP files directly into the database.  You will see the full project hierarchy, with all summary tasks and normal tasks.  Resource assignments from MSP will be carried over into the Project Task view and shown on the timesheet.

Q: What do you offer in client billing features?
A: Each project is assigned to a client.  That means you can have multiple projects per client.  And, each task is assigned to a client.  So, when employees track time to online projects, they are automatically tracking time to a client at the same time.  All client hours may be viewed in reports or billed with invoices.  So, this tool is more than online project management; it is also client billing and client management.

Q: Is there an employee timesheet?
A: Yes, all employees can fill out an employee timesheet, which consists of project tasks.  Time off, such as vacation, sick, personal, ect, is also displayed in the timesheet.  This helps employees focus on a 40-hour work week.
