About Harvest
Harvest is a time tracking and invoicing tool used by agencies, consultancies, and professional services firms to log billable hours, manage project budgets, and generate invoices. It’s popular with Australian businesses because it handles multi-currency billing and integrates natively with common accounting tools.
Where Harvest falls short on its own is connecting to the broader set of tools a team uses daily. Using n8n, we integrate Harvest with CRM systems, project management tools, Slack, and accounting platforms so time data flows into the right places without manual export and import. This means your project budgets update in real time, invoices are generated from approved timesheets, and managers get notified when projects approach budget limits.
Osher builds Harvest integrations for Australian professional services businesses. If your team tracks time in Harvest but then spends hours each week moving data into spreadsheets or accounting tools, our business automation work can save that time.

How it works
We work hand-in-hand with you to implement Harvest
As Harvest consultants we work with you hand in hand build more efficient and effective operations. Here’s how we will work with you to automate your business and integrate Harvest with integrate and automate 800+ tools.
Step 1
Review Your Time and Billing Process
We examine how your team tracks time, manages project budgets, and generates invoices. This includes understanding your billing rates, client structures, and the manual steps your team currently takes to get from time entry to invoice.
Step 2
Map Integration Requirements
We identify which systems need to connect to Harvest and in which direction data flows. Common connections include accounting software for invoicing, project management tools for project creation, and Slack for budget alerts.
Step 3
Configure the Harvest Connection in n8n
We set up authentication between n8n and your Harvest account using OAuth2. We verify access to the correct Harvest data, including projects, time entries, expenses, and invoices, before building any workflows.
Step 4
Build the Automation Workflows
Using the Harvest n8n node, we create workflows for each integration point. This might include timesheet-to-invoice automation, project budget monitoring, or syncing project structures between Harvest and your PM tool. Each workflow includes error handling and data validation.
Step 5
Test with Real Project Data
We run the workflows using actual time entries and project data from your Harvest account. We verify that invoices are calculated correctly, budget alerts fire at the right thresholds, and synced data matches between systems.
Step 6
Deploy and Train
The workflows are deployed to production. We provide documentation and run a training session with your team covering how the automations work, how to handle exceptions, and how to adjust billing rates or budget thresholds as your projects evolve.
