Sounds like you need some software to keep track of tasks that lets you
tag different tasks with fee, priorities, timestamps, and output to a
timesheet..  Most help desk software out there lets you define types of
tasks and priorities and assign them to a "fee" of some kind, things of
that nature.  
 
I use Track-It!, which isn't specifically setup for what they are
asking, but it could easily configure it to meet the demand, and write a
custom crystal report to make the timesheet.

Basically I'm in a position where my company wants me (And all other
staff)  to submit a daily timesheet that breaks down into EVERY
different task I do (Chargeable and non chargeable)  I can see the point
of doing this for chargeable work but it wastes a lot of time for the
internal non-chargeable stuff.  It also doesn't give a true reflection
of how time is spent. 
 
So (As this is the friendliest list I'm subscribed to :)  ) I thought I
would ask how other companies ask there employees to recorded time.
 
Ideally I would like them to adopt a system of recording time spend
working on a day with no breakdown, with a list of tasks with priorities
assigned to them so they can see what is going on.  An then just a
breakdown recorded of chargeable work (Which is about 5% of my time)
 
Thanks for any replies!
 
Dave

        We are using ADP Etime, not sure what you are looking for
exactly but I seem to remember that the free Liberum help desk had some
time tracking features also...  http://www.liberum.org/features.html
There is also one called Journxy that allows up to 10 users completely
free.. http://journyx.com/products/timesheet/

        Right......I know this is completely off topic but I have a
question about timesheets and recording time. 

        Basically with the company you work at how do you record your
time???  Do you do a daily timesheet? Do you give estimates? Do you just
work on priority lists?? Anything else!

        Any help would be much appreciated! 

        Regards 
        Dave
