Billing Time Entry Reminders
Time leakage grows when lawyers wait until the end of the week to reconstruct what they did from memory. This automation prompts daily time entry, suggests likely billables from the calendar and matter activity, and flags unposted work before billing gets delayed.
How It Works
Read the day's activity
The workflow looks at calendar events, calls, emails, and matter edits associated with each timekeeper.
Suggest likely time entries
It drafts short entry suggestions tied to the correct matter and task code for the attorney or paralegal to review.
Send reminders at cutoff
Anyone missing time gets a reminder near the end of the day or next morning with a summary of unlogged activity.
Escalate repeated misses
Persistent missing time can be reported to the billing manager or practice lead before month-end closes.
Tools & Platforms
Key Benefits
Recovers billable time that would otherwise be forgotten Improves billing accuracy with same-day entry prompts Reduces month-end scramble for attorneys and billing staff Creates better utilization data for management reporting
In Practice
A small business law firm sees associates leaving hours unentered until Friday. The automation emails each lawyer a same-day summary of client calls, contract markups, and meetings, which pushes most of the missing time into the billing system before the next morning.
