ProjectsCreating a project with Harvest is easy. You complete the details for all the standard questions; client name, budget, notes etc and the tool will auto populate the information you need. You can also fill in a Project Code, which is a useful tool for larger teams and organizations. Harvest will also allow you to fill in a budget, measured in total project hours, fees, hours per task, or hours per person. Budget reports can then be share with everyone on the project (employees and contractors), or you can decide to keep them private.
