The design looks top notch and beyond that, it looks like you've really identified a specific part of the time tracking/invoicing workflow that has not yet been solved well and you have come up with a solution that completely nails that pain point.

Great work guys! : )

I worked at Intuit in the bay area for about three years. During that time, I knew many people that would work from home regularly 1-2 times a week. I really preferred working on my multi-monitor setup in the office (I lived easily bikeable three miles away from campus), so I never took advantage of the liberal WFH policy while I lived out there (except for when waiting for cable man visits and the like).

After three years working in Mountain View, my girlfriend got into a PHD program at the University Wisconsin and Intuit was A-OK with me working remote. So I packed up all my office gear, got issued a Desktop VPN VOIP phone, and moved to Madison, WI. I did that for about two years before I left to cofound a company with several longtime CS friends here in Madison.

So, yeah, Intuit is pretty liberal with telecommuting when it fits the situation (as long as you don't abuse it). : )
