What are your best practices and links for time-tracking in Org-Mode, both for $ and for self-knowledge? #emacs #orgmode

Conor Nash @Conornash

@mwfogleman I run a small consultancy and use extensively:
- 1 master file for all client todos. Each client gets a top level heading, tasks underneath. Drawer properties to make the client name show up in the agenda.
- track time and add notes in the master file. Code/deliverables stay in a client specific file to avoid bloat.
- add a clock table under each heading with a time range of the previous month. Re-calc & copy into accounting software on 1st of month.

@Conornash This would be awesome to see in a minimal example file (on GitHub?) plus a bit of description/manual so that others do get a cool starting point. At this moment I don't need this for myself but even more I'd be interested in your solutions to learn from.

@publicvoit github.com/conornash/dot-emacs has my org setup but I should probably make a blog post or two to fully explain. Also, there's plenty of cruft that needs cleaning. As you can see I try everything 😄
