Harvest's sidebar gives you quick access to every area of the application. Below is an overview of each tab and what you can accomplish there.

For accounts created prior to April 8th 2026 the option will be available to temporarily revert to the old Harvest navigation via a toggle above the Integrations tab.

Timesheet

Your home for time tracking. Access all three logging views — Day, Week, and Calendar — to record hours in the format that works best for you. You can also submit timesheets and expenses for approval directly from this tab.

Expenses

Track and manage your expenses. Log individual expense entries, attach receipts, and submit expenses for approval.

Team

Manage your organisation's people. Admins and managers with the appropriate permissions can edit teammate profiles, and create and manage roles — including updating role definitions and adjusting which teammates are assigned to each one.

Clients

Maintain your client directory. Create new clients, update company details, and manage individual contacts within each client organisation — including names, email addresses, and other key information.

Projects

Set up and manage your projects. Create new projects, edit existing ones, configure budgets and assignments, and access project-specific reports to monitor progress and profitability.

Tasks

Define the work your team tracks time against. Create and edit tasks, set display names, and configure billable rates.

Expense Categories

Control which categories are available for expense tracking across your team. If you have the QuickBooks integration enabled, you can also map each expense category to the corresponding QuickBooks account.

Invoices

Create and manage invoices and retainers. Draft new invoices, send them to clients, update statuses, and track payment. The Configure page within this section lets you set default values to streamline and personalise your invoicing workflow.

Estimates

Create, configure, and manage estimates to share projected costs with clients before work begins.

Approvals

Review and approve submitted timesheets and expenses. Admins and managers with the relevant permissions use this tab to sign off on entries and keep records accurate.

Reports

Your analysis hub. Run reports across the full breadth of your Harvest data — covering time, budgets, expenses, team capacity, invoices and more — to surface the insights that matter to your business.

Integrations

Choose from over 70 tools to connect and supercharge how you leverage Harvest data. Available integrations include Stripe, QuickBooks, Xero, Asana, Slack and more.

Settings

Configure your Harvest account. Manage billing, preferences, integrations, feature modules, security settings, and import or export time and project data.

My Profile

View and update your personal account details, including your information, bill and cost rates, project and team assignments, permissions, notification preferences, and security settings.
