Repeat client billing · manual review
Per-entry versus total time rounding
Several short jobs can produce a larger invoice when each is rounded up separately. Compare rounding every entry with rounding the combined time once, using an explicitly entered billing increment.

Check one specific result
Three fictional eight-minute tasks total 24 minutes. Rounding each to 15 minutes produces 45 minutes and AUD90.00 at AUD120/hour. Rounding the combined time once produces 30 minutes and AUD60.00. The AUD30.00 difference is a method difference.
Method and boundaries
For a positive duration, round up by multiplying the entered increment by the ceiling of minutes divided by that increment. Apply this once to each row and separately to the overall duration. Money is rounded only after the duration calculation.
This is round-up only, not nearest rounding or a universal invoicing rule. Keep entries from different clients or agreements separate. Do not round payroll using this tool, and do not infer permission to round from the calculated result.
From a reviewed number to an invoice
- Confirm the actual customer, scope, period and approved charging basis.
- Match each row to source job records; fictional examples are not customer data.
- Download a manual review record if useful; it does not replace original invoices or accounting records.
- Manually enter appropriate AUD line items in the tool, check the preview, then export the PDF or image yourself.

Questions before invoicing
Does this result create or change an invoice?
No. This page calculates a manual review only. Nothing is sent to an account, saved to an invoice draft or automatically copied into ABN Invoice. Review the agreement and enter an approved customer document yourself.
