Note: When entering time on time billing, depending on how many times you click, certain things will be selected in the date field.
If you click once on the date field, it will insert a cursor into where you click.
If you double click, it will select either the 'day' section or the 'month' section etc. depending on where your cursor is pointing.
If you triple click the date field, it will select all of the date so that you can write over it all.
The matter number will search the matters that have been created so far as you type either a number or name into it. The task gives you options of what kind of work it was e.g. billable, not billable etc. The fee earner is the initials of the person who completed worked the time being entered.

To stop the matter auto filling, delete the matter typed in the Pinned Matter field.

The rate will be their rate per hour. This may fill automatically if the fee earner has their rates set up. The notes are the description that will appear on the invoice sent to the client so ensure that they have been checked for typos and spelling before submitting your entry.

Before submitting time you must ensure that each time entry line has been approved, i.e. no missing fields or incorrect data. In order to do this ensure you tab through the fields until a green tick appears at the end of the line. If a line is entered and changes are made, remember to tab off that line. If a line has not been tabbed off the submit button will appear 'grayed' out.
...
Time entries can be edited after saving by selecting the time entry > opening it > selecting edit. 
...
Once the entries are completed (i.e. you have the green tick) and you want to bill them, select the blue ‘submit records’ button on the bottom left. This will make them available for invoicing.
...
For any time entries that are over 1 day old and still in the draft status, there will be an information message pop up on the Time Register page to remind you to submit this time.

As with all Wise Owl pick lists, hit the down arrow on the item box.
Fixed fees can be edited though tools and settings icon > settings > appliance settings > time > manage list definitions > time billing fixed fees
The fixed fees list can also be sorted to have your favourite / most used items appearing at the top of the pick lists by numbering the items in the sort column. The default is that the fixed fees will appear in alphabetical order.
To enter fixed fees, it is a very similar process to entering time records. You can access it through the Time Billing icon or the Accounting and Finance Module by clicking on the blue ‘Enter Fixed Fees’ button.
...
Once you have completed the fixed fee entry and wish to bill it, select the ‘submit records’ button.
