I suggest you ...

Show subtotals for each day (or group by day) in report

The Invoice report currently groups by DESCRIPTION (doesn't even show the date at all!), but some clients would prefer an invoice grouped by DAY, showing for each day: total hours worked + a list of all the the things done on that day (the comments for each entry falling on that day, and perhaps the tags).

        every month, at the end of the month, for ALL of my clients, I go through painstakingly & add multiple entries on a single day -- so that the comments get carried over... --- so for sept 1, in task "X", I had comments "yyyyy" from 8-9 & comments "zzzz" from 10-11, & comments "aaabbbb" from 13-14. I make one 'row' that has 3 hours, & "yyyyy, zzzzz, aaabbbb" (meanwhile I did stuff on another task for another client in the hours in between...) -- I'd LOVE it if you all would do the cut & paste for me... it would save me much time -- OR if you have suggestions about how I might use the timer differently so that this becomes more workable?? I know there must be a way!!

        I just posted about this on getsatisfaction, but I think this is a great idea that could be abstracted a little more, allowing people to group (and possibly) subgroup reporting fields. For example, I'd like to be able to group all my data by day (as mentioned) and then subgroup each day by task, and then get a list of the total time I spent on each task per day.

        I have to check my timesheet against the companys attendance recorder where the daily subtotal is noted. So this would be a fine feature. Now I have to do it in pivot, week by week.

        So either change the "Invoice" report to optionally group by day, or change the Timesheet report to show SUBTOTALS for each day...
