[PHP] time/task reporting

2012-03-01 Thread Robert Nilsson
Hi,
 Ok, I admit -I'm lazy!
 Been asked to make a reporting tool, what and how many hours spent on
 Possible with a save option, to enable continuously adding during the week, 
before sending off by mail to manager and one self.

 Surely I'm not the first person looking at a similar tool, been searching a 
bit but not found example code to use for adjustment to suite my group needs.

 Anyone care to share or point me to a site where I can find this?

 Thanks

This wheel has been invented many times already. Save yourself some time and 
money and use an existing service:

Add up what your time will cost to develop a solution, double it because your 
estimate will almost certainly be too low, then double it again to cover 
maintenance for the first year, and compare that figure to what a SaaS solution 
will cost for one year. Unless your requirements are sufficiently different to 
that which already exists, or you want to develop this as a learning 
experience, grab a wheel off the shelf.
