App::TimeTracker::Command::Billing - Add a billing point as a tag to tasks
version 1.001
Add a billing point to each task. Could be based on the current date (eg '2019/Q4' or '2019/11') or on some project name.
Add Billing to the list of plugins.
add a hash named billing, containing the following keys:
Set to a true value if 'billing' should be a required command line option
If set, add this prefix to the billing point when storing it as tag. Useful to discern regular tags from billing point pseudo tags.
Set to the method to calculate the default billing point. Currently there is only one method implemented, strftime
When using default = strftime, specify the DateTime::strftime format. Some examples:
%Y/%m-> 2019/12%Y/Q%{quarter}-> 2019/Q4
no new commands
~/perl/Your-Project$ tracker start --billing offer-42
Add a tag 'offer-42', which you can later use to filter all tasks belonging to an offer / sub-project etc
If you set up a default using strftime you can automatically add
a billing tag for eg the current month or quarter. This is very
helpful for mapping tasks to maintainance contracts.
cat .tracker.json
"billing":{
"required":false,
"default": "strftime",
"strftime": "%Y/Q%{quarter}"
}
~/perl/Your-Project$ tracker start
