Each entry (task) you create in Timely belongs to a project.Β 

A project is a simple way to organize the work you do for your clients (or even your internal non-billable time).Β 

There are two types of projects in Timely -

Active projects πŸƒ: These projects will show up in your project list when you are creating your time entries. Active projects are project you are currently and actively working on.Β 

Archived projects πŸ“: Projects you are no longer working on and are finished with but want to retain the entries associated with the project.Β 

We recommend archiving your completed projects to keep your account from getting cluttered!

What does '50 active projects' under the Starter plan mean?

This means you can only have, well, 50 active projects on your account. If you need to work on a 51st project, you'll need to archive one of the active projects to stay within the that active project limit. You can always reactivate archived projects.Β 

If you're constantly having to archive and reactivate projects, you might need to upgrade to the Premium plan! 🌠
