Hi JackMark, I like that. This may be what I've been looking for. Will do some more research.

Time management term has more to do with work time allocation. Possibly "Zeitbilanzierung" refers to "time accounting" as here:

Hello there :) I still believe it's (work) time management, e. g. (weekly work time, part-time portion, overtime, ...). Maybe this will all clarify itself as I continue on in the text. Thanks so much for helping!!!!

Context needed Just off the top of my head this looks more like "charging" of something to that effect, i.e., recording time spent on something by workers and charging it to something, an account, a project, customer, whatever.

Definitely not "time management" which is more the efficient use/scheduling of time.
