Reports

Four reports on logged time. All time lists every entry with totals. Over budget finds open tasks past their estimate. Completed tasks and Client report build PDFs to send a client.

Time logs feed four reports. All time lists every entry, grouped, with totals, on screen. Over budget lists open tasks past their estimate and exports CSV. Completed tasks shows a client's finished work as a PDF. Client report builds a project update for a client as a PDF. The first two need view all time report; the PDFs need view client reports.
