    Mac Applications for Contractors?

    Anybody got any good time management applications for Mac?

    I've tried logging my weeks in iCal but it's really not suited to logging things like amount of hours worked in a day, expense calculating/recording etc.

      Code:
      Date | Proj | Hours | Rate | Mileage | Train/Taxi | Total |
      How hard can it be?

          Typical techie.... always looking for a pretty solution to a simple problem.



          Fine, you can write your own database front end to do exactly the same thing and spend all weekend working out if it works.

          Mine does.

            Pretty >> Simple.. works well for my choice in females, why can't it work in work lol.

            Someone just recommended an app called Billings, going to try it out now.

              SJD have a spreadsheet that will calculate it all for you, including CT, VAT etc. Free download from their website.

                  Tried Billings, it's not up to much for UK contractors IMO. +1 for the spreadsheet suggestions.

                    I use Fanurio: Fanurio - Time tracking software for freelancers

                    Runs on both Mac and PC so I moved its DB to my NAS so can access it from multiple machines.
