Back in school, I worked part-time for a group that used limited time tracking; you input when you worked and how many hours per project, but didn't have to match hours to tasks. The one minor flaw in this program was that it didn't let you pick your hours worked - it simply asked for a single start and end time each day. Working two hours in the morning and two in the afternoon was impossible to input. Blessedly, it was an internal tool rather than a way to track client billing; the standing instructions were to just choose some random block of hours corresponding to your total time worked, so that you could get to the project-hours fields that actually mattered. But internal usage also raised the question of why they were voluntarily keeping a tool slightly less effective than a century-old punchclock.
