Multiple jobs become difficult to review when every session has the same vague label. A little setup makes later exports easier to understand. Use a distinct job for each ongoing client or role, and use session notes for smaller tasks inside that job.
A clean handoff: Stop Client A, confirm the save, select Client B, check the rate, and Start.
Choose a naming convention
Names such as Acme - website and North Studio - support are easier to distinguish than Job 1 and Job 2. Include enough context to recognize the work, but avoid sensitive client details in job names. Those names can appear in history and exported drafts. Decide whether your organizing unit is a client, role, or project and use that choice consistently.
Add jobs before starting the timer
Choose + Add client at the top of the workspace, then enter the client, project, and rate. Multiple active clients are available during the Pro trial and on Pro. Solo tracks one primary client. Check the selected client and rate before starting each session.
Stop before you switch
Stop and save before changing clients. If you select another client while running or paused, ClockFuel asks whether to save and end the current session first. The new client’s timer starts only when you press Start. This keeps each client’s work separate.
Check the job filter before exporting
Select the client at the top, open Invoices, choose Time-based, and set the date range. Invoice exports apply to this client. Review descriptions, amounts, and the start/stop-time checkbox before sharing. Other clients’ history remains available when your plan limits new tracking to one primary client.
