Only allow invoicing approved timesheet hours
I believe that there should be some option to only allow approved timesheet hours to be added to invoices.
We’re getting into a bit of a pickle, every now and again, because hours get invoiced (an therefore locked) before a timesheet is submitted and approved.
Also, I find that it’s very difficult to fix the problems in hours that have already been invoived:
1) Editing an invoice line item (time entry) does not adjust the time log entry.
2) The time log entry cannot be edited, because it is locked.
3) It is not possible to mark a single time entry as invoiced/uninvoiced (e.g. in the detailed time report), when there are multiple time entries in the day in question (because the mark as invoiced/uninvoiced action is done to all time entries that match the detailed report criteria, which only has date [not time] resolution).
The best way I’ve found to work around the issue is to (a) delete the invoice (if it has not been sent to the customer) and thereby unlock the incorrect time entry, (b) fix the time entry, and © recreate the invoice.
Thanks for listening :)

I didn’t get any response from a harvest team member, so I figured I would bump this topic, again.
This feature (or bug-fix, depending on your perspective) would be extremely useful to our company.
Thanks,
I too need the ability to at least SEE the approved hours on my detailed report (for export to Quickbooks). This ties in with the functionality requested to some degree.
Thanks for the feedback!
@JimKring: Your current workaround is a good one. It’s also worth noting that Admins can edit locked time entries, so both the entry and the corresponding line item on the invoice can be edited if necessary.
@fransdw: As I mentioned on your other post, reporting for approved hours only is a current feature request and I’ve added your vote to the total.
