What This Template Offers

A complete, ready-to-use data model to run projects, assign work, and track time with confidence.

  • End-to-end schema for Projects, Tasks, Users, Roles, TimeEntries, Tags, and Comments
  • Clear keys, FKs, and cardinalities for reliable joins and reporting
  • Billing-ready timesheets with duration_minutes and audit timestamps
  • Many-to-many task tagging via TaskTags for flexible reporting
  • Scalable, role-based access model mapped directly in the ERD

Perfect Use Cases

PMO rollout or tool migration

Move from spreadsheets to a robust relational model. The ERD clarifies ownership, dependencies, and reporting fields for a smooth implementation.

Software sprint tracking

Model backlog, assignees, priorities, and logged time. Keep velocity, estimates, and completion status consistent across teams.

Agencies and consultancies billing

Track billable work with precise TimeEntries linked to tasks and users. Reduce invoicing errors and surface utilization insights.

Compliance and audit readiness

Leverage timestamps, user ownership, and comment history to satisfy audit trails and stakeholder reviews.

How to Customize

1

Add or rename fields

Tailor entities to your workflow (e.g., billable_rate on Users, sprint_id on Tasks, client_id on Projects).

2

Adjust relationships and rules

Set optional vs. required FKs, composite keys, and cascade behavior. Map who can own, assign, or log time.

3

Style and export

Choose colors, layout direction (LR/TD), and spacing. Then download, share, or embed your ER diagram.
