If a matter includes one or more fixed fees, you may see an option to select a Fixed Fee on the time entry.
What it means
Selecting a Fixed Fee links that time entry to a specific fixed fee on the matter.
Why it matters
Associating time to the correct fixed fee helps LeanLaw report on:
Profitability by fixed fee
Effort by deliverable or phase
Accuracy of pricing for each fixed-fee component
How to assign time to a fixed fee
Create (or edit) a time entry
Set Billing Type to Fixed Fee
In the Fixed Fee dropdown, select the appropriate fixed fee
Save
If the Fixed Fee dropdown is empty
That usually means the matter does not have any fixed fees yet.
You can still:
Save the entry as Fixed Fee time
Associate it later once the fixed fee exists prior to billing the time entry
