DCAA-aligned timekeeping for QuickBooks government contractors

DCAA-aligned timekeeping starts before payroll.

For a QuickBooks government contractor, the weak point is often not accounting, it is the labor record created before accounting receives anything. CabuzTime puts that record in a controlled daily workflow with allowed charge codes, employee entry, employee certification, manager review, and correction history.

That gives managers and finance a cleaner source of truth before payroll, reporting, or QuickBooks handoff. The goal is to make timekeeping evidence part of everyday work, not a cleanup project after the pay period closes.

QuickBooks should receive reviewed labor, not raw cleanup.

QuickBooks remains the accounting system. CabuzTime sits upstream so teams can review labor charges, approvals, returns, and corrections before approved time is used downstream.

That separation helps reduce reliance on emails, spreadsheets, or undocumented after-the-fact edits when someone needs to explain how the final labor record was created.

Keep the evidence reviewers ask finance to explain.

A useful timekeeping workflow should show who entered time, what work was charged, when the record was submitted, who approved it, and why any correction changed the original entry. CabuzTime keeps those details close to the approved labor record so the team can review the story behind the numbers.
