A tracking system and method automatically tracks time spent by end users
in different applications on the end users' computers while performing
tasks. The time keeping application is integrated with at least some of
the applications on the end user computers. This integration allows the
time keeping application to detect and track events, such as the opening
and closing of files, that signify a change in the task being performed by
the end users by receiving messages directly from the other applications
being used by the end user. The time keeping software may automatically
suggest a categorization for the task based on at least one criteria.
