A project is something you are working on and can be anything from reading a book to building a new product.

‍

There are four aspects of managing projects we will cover here:

• Creating a new or edit an existing project
• Making changes to a project
• Archiving and restoring a project
• Tracking time for a project
• Viewing data for a project

After you have created a new project, or selected an existing one, Busy will redirect you to the project page.

Here, you can make changes to the following:

• Project name

• Billable; Determines whether it is possible to track billable hours for the project or not.
• Members; Determines what people should have access to log time for this project
• Tags;  Determines what tags should be available for the project.
