Make time entry easy for your team with Teams

Pre-filled timesheets, every day

Chrono sends pre-filled timesheets to you and your team as interactive Teams messages. The more integrations you have, the more precise they get.

Edit directly in Teams

Modify or add details to your time data directly in Teams. No app switching needed.

High completion rates

Ensure your entire team completes their timesheets consistently, without the usual friction.

Works even better together. Combine with Jira or Azure DevOps to capture both meeting time and development activity.

How Microsoft Teams data supports SR&ED claims

SR&ED claims require contemporaneous records showing how your team's time was spent on qualifying R&D activities. Data from Microsoft Teams — captured and categorized by Chrono — becomes that record. The CRA accepts time logs derived from project management and collaboration tools as supporting documentation, provided they're organized by project, activity, and date. Chrono does that organization automatically, so your Microsoft Teams activity feeds directly into audit-ready SR&ED documentation.

Common questions about the Microsoft Teams integration

Do I need to install anything to connect Microsoft Teams?

Nothing to install. The connection uses OAuth authorization — you grant Chrono read access through Microsoft Teams's own permissions dialog. Your credentials never pass through Chrono's servers.

Does the Microsoft Teams integration change how my team works?

No. Your team keeps using Microsoft Teams exactly as they do now. Chrono reads activity data in the background and builds timesheets from it. No new tools, no new habits required.

How quickly does Chrono start generating timesheets after I connect Microsoft Teams?

Chrono begins capturing data the day you connect. Most teams see their first timesheets within 24 hours. The integration becomes more accurate over the first few days as Chrono builds a pattern of your team's activity.

Is the Microsoft Teams integration included in the free plan?

Yes. All integrations are included in Chrono's free plan. There's no limit on the number of tools you connect, and no integration costs extra.
