If by this you are thinking of restrocting certain users from seeing certain 
time
entries, and doing this by project/job Can I suggest this gets done by
Company/Individual. This would leave an administrator to be able to say user x 
and
see company/individual abc and user y company/individual cde and user z only
company c. This way is xyz are collaborating on c they can while x and y work on
other things. I think allowing users to have control is scary.

Always happy.. think the apps great.. my small IT Support company uses this now 
for
all of sheet tracking (used to be manual). I really want to help but I am 
finding
myself a bit snowed under right now, maybe over Xmas...
