Best Practices
Checking if the Billables Extension is installed
-
We recommend Pinning the Billables extension to the top of your browser so you can always see it’s there and working. It will show up as a regular icon when it’s working.

If, for some reason, it stops working, you’ll see a red alert badge show up. Click on the Billables icon to sign in to your account again and the alert should disappear. This should happen rarely.
