Yes, Hourly supports the scheduling of reports to automate the reporting process. This feature is particularly useful for regular updates like weekly project status reports or monthly client billing. To set up scheduled reports, define the report parameters such as the type, scope, and filter options. Then, choose the frequency at which you would like the report to be generated—daily, weekly, monthly, etc. Finally, specify the recipients who should receive the report via email - this can include clients. Hourly will handle the rest, ensuring timely delivery of up-to-date information to the necessary stakeholders.

Hourly's reporting tools are designed to provide insights into team productivity by tracking and analysing various metrics such as hours worked, tasks completed, and project progress. Managers can use these reports to identify trends, assess workloads, and pinpoint areas where efficiency could be improved. Comparing productivity across different time periods or among team members can also help in recognizing outstanding performances and addressing underperformance. Additionally, these insights can inform training programs, workload adjustments, and resource allocation to better align with the team’s capabilities and project demands.

Hourly's reports can be instrumental in improving project budgeting by providing detailed insights into how time is spent and where resources are allocated. By generating detailed time and expense reports, you can assess the financial performance of projects, identify areas where costs are overrunning, and adjust budgets or operations accordingly. The ability to analyse time spent on different tasks or projects helps in forecasting future expenses and resource needs more accurately, allowing for better financial planning and control.
