RTG Timer
HE lets you enter fees and expenses on a Palm organizer. This
information is copied to RTG Timer on your desktop computer,
where you can further edit it before you send it on for billing
in RTG Bills.RTG Timer HE uses Palms HotSync technology to copy your
clients, matters, rates, and codes from the desktop computer
to the Palm computer. At the same time, released fees and
expenses are copied from the Palm computer to the desktop
computer. All you have to do is press the HotSync button.
RTG Timer HE on the Palm computer includes these features:
Switch quickly from one transaction to another using a
list of all your transactions, most recent first.
Choose a client from your client list, then a matter from
the list of matters for that client. Or save time by choosing
a matter from the list of recently-used matters.
Choose the date from a pop-up calendar.
Choose an optional activity code from a list. Activity codes
determine the type of transaction (e.g., hourly rate vs.
expense). They can also supply a text description.
Enter a description using Palms easy-to-learn Graffiti writing
method, or type on the on-screen keyboard by tapping the
keys. You can also create Graffiti ShortCuts, which are
similar to the shorthand codes in RTG Bills and RTG Timer.
Time your work with a stopwatch. The stopwatch keeps running
if you switch to another Palm application, or even if you
turn off your Palm computer. You can also enter time using
either a standard pop-up screen or Graffiti numbers.
The hourly rate for fee transactions is automatically supplied
based on the matter and timekeeper, just as it would be
in RTG Timer on a PC.
When a transaction is ready for billing, you can mark it
released and it will be moved to RTG Timer during the next
HotSync operation. Or you can release all transactions through
a specific date.
RTG Timer HE is licensed in a similar manner to RTG Timer.
When you purchase the initial RTG Timer HE license, you
get all the necessary programs for the Palm computer and
the PC. You also get one RTG Timer HE key, which allows
one timekeeper to use the program. Additional keys can be
purchased to allow additional timekeepers to use the software.
