Time Entry Best Practices for Consulting Professionals
Review this document for clarity expectations related to entering billable and non-billable time as well as an overview of commonly used non-billable codes with descriptions of their purposes. All attorneys and consulting professionals are expected to track and enter all time, both billable and non-billable (including holiday and PTO time), and this document will assist with determining the appropriate codes and descriptions to use. For a comprehensive listing of NOBILL codes, please refer to the relevant KnowZone posting by clicking here. If you have any questions about the time entry expectations and/or which code is appropriate for a specific activity, please feel free to reach out to Hope Wolf.
FOR ANALYSTS/SENIOR ANALYSTS: As detailed in your offer letter, your regularly scheduled hours are Monday-Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. This includes a required hour lunch period. Given that the firm’s requirement is that you submit a minimum of 8 hours/day, you are not expected to submit the hour lunch period in Carpe Diem. Please submit the remaining 8 hours/day according to the appropriate client billable, NOBILL, A-Matter or PERS codes. To the extent that you have approval to work more than 8 hours any given day due to client demands, you should submit that time to the appropriate client billable code as well. Please let your Group Manager, Carol, or Hope know if you have any questions about tracking or submitting your time in Carpe Diem.
