I wasn't able to replicate the date range issue you mentioned, but if you could send our support team an email we would be happy to look into it. As for importing the task name for Basecamp time entries, I agree that this would be a great feature, but I'm not sure if it's possible to automatically tie your time entries to a specific to-do. Basecamp does have to-do lists, which are somewhat like tasks in FreshBooks, but these are not associated with the actual time entries entered into Basecamp. Great feedback though, and if you have any thoughts on how we could adress the task issue please do contact support and let us know. Thanks, Peter Hi Jennifer,

For example even though I select a certain time frame for importing the tasks it ignores that and imports all of them. Additionally if I don't put the task description in the time tracking description box- it won't show up in Freshbooks which means I have to enter the task in basecamp twice??? Sort of repetitive. It also doesn't add the task list name- well it does sort of but in a separate section of the invoice which just creates more work because I have to delete all those line entries...hoping this will get better.

I still don't completely understand the two options. I've tried to get it for over an year now... my basecamp projects still show as a complete mess inside fresh books... I wish this integration was intuitive, but it' not. not for me at least I’m glad you guys are improving this, as I consider this to be your weakest point.
