Review SR&ED hours with linked supporting evidence
Reconstructing labour at year-end can leave gaps.
Engineering record
Reviewed time connected to project evidence.
Allocation basis
Each approved entry keeps its source context.
Claim review
Time and project changes remain in one record.
SREDlog brings recorded hours, proposed allocations, source evidence and approvals into the review process while the project context is still available.
A proposal is never treated as a claimed hour. Only allocations approved by a person flow into the calculation.
Use the time record you actually have
Enter time directly, upload completed timesheets, or let SREDlog read documents containing time records and propose allocations. However the hours arrive, they appear as reviewable entries rather than unreviewed totals.
Make approval the calculation boundary
- Every allocation starts unreviewed; nothing flows into a form until a person approves it.
- Each entry ties back to the evidence that supports it.
- Claimed hours reconcile against approved hours, so the totals on the T661 are the ones you signed off.
Worked example: review a mixed week of activity
Consider a fictional engineer whose weekly record includes experiment analysis and routine release support. Import the dated time entries, confirm the person and project, and compare the descriptions with the test notes and tickets. The preparer reviews which activities and hours belong in the claim; a commit count alone cannot establish that decision.
Correct duplicates, explain any allocation assumptions and keep the supporting evidence attached. Approve the supported entries before using the labour totals in the claim calculation. The time-entry and spreadsheet-import guide walks through entry, validation and review.
Show where the time record is incomplete
When contemporaneous timesheets are incomplete, SREDlog can use commit history and ticket activity to propose a time allocation for review. Periods with limited support are flagged so your team can add records or revise the allocation before filing.
