Account Setup

Configure your Dime.Sheets organization, invite team members, and set up preferences for time tracking.

Account Setup

After creating your Dime.Sheets account, take a few minutes to configure your organization. These settings shape how your team tracks and reports time.

Organization settings

Navigate to Settings from the sidebar (Administrator access required).

General

  • Organization name -- Displayed across the app and in reports.
  • Timezone -- The default timezone for your organization. Individual users can override this.
  • Default work hours -- The standard number of hours in a workday (typically 8). Used for capacity calculations and overtime detection.

Time entry preferences

  • Minimum increment -- Set the smallest time unit: 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, or 30 minutes. Entries are rounded to this increment.
  • Description required -- When enabled, users must provide a description with every time entry.
  • Future entries -- Choose whether users can log time for future dates.

Inviting users

Go to Settings > Users and click Invite User.

Enter the user's email address and assign a role:

  • Regular -- Standard team members who log their own time
  • Manager -- Can approve time entries and view team reports
  • Administrator -- Full access to all settings and data

The invited user receives an email with a link to set up their account.

Setting up projects

Before your team can log time, you need at least one project. See the Projects documentation for details on:

  • Creating projects and tasks
  • Assigning team members with project-specific roles
  • Setting budgets and tracking actuals
  • Configuring billing rates
