What is the intranet?

The Cloud Exit Intranet is the internal system of record for engineering time, customer projects, SLA allowances, and invoice preparation. It replaces spreadsheets and ad-hoc messages with one traceable workflow.

It is a web application. You sign in with your Cloud Exit account (single sign-on) and see only what your role allows.

What you can do here​

  • Log time against a customer project, day by day, and submit it for review.
  • Review and approve submitted time (reviewers, finance, administrators).
  • Set up customers and projects, assign engineers, and map accounting references (finance, administrators).
  • Define agreements, monthly allowances, and rates so work can be billed.
  • Close monthly billing periods and inspect the billing evidence.
  • Run reports and export a monthly timesheet as CSV.
  • Administer people, roles, API tokens, service clients, and the audit trail.

How this guide is organised​

The guide is role-first. Start with the shared basics, then read the guide that matches your role:

  1. Roles and permissions — what each role can do.
  2. Signing in — SSO and the dev sign-in.
  3. Finding your way around — the layout and common interactions.
  4. Then your role guide: Engineer, Reviewer, Finance, or Administrator.
Not sure which role you are?

Look at the bottom-left of the sidebar — your name and role are shown there.

The core workflow​

Time moves through a fixed lifecycle. Nothing is billable until it has been approved, and every step is attributable to a person and a timestamp.

See Statuses and states for the full list.
