...

Tempo Teams are used to ensure that the projects' costs or revenue are accurate. Tempo Team Administrators create a team, add the appropriate roles, and add members to the team. When you’ve installed Financial Manager, you can assign cost rates or billing rates to those team members, which is used to track how much money the project is using or can bill.

Learn more in the Timesheets documentation.

Accounts are required to track CAPEX/OPEX accounts. If you want to track billable hours, a Tempo Account Administrator can create accounts that you can then associate with a billing rate.

Learn more about Tempo accounts in the Timesheets documentation.
