Manually entering work time

Hello, 

In Business Manager Lite, is it possible to manually enter work time on a completed project, regardless of it being a Studio synced project or not. It looks like adding work time is only possible through time tracker logs, so it is impossible to add time data to a custom project (for projects outside Studio for example). 

In short, I would like to be able to see how much time I spent translating a given amount of words in a project, then see how many EUR/hour I made as a result. Is it possible?

Moreover, having charts using time data could be useful to see how many hours we spent translating for a given client/subject area/language pair, and to filter projects/clients based on the previously calculated EUR/hour ratio.

Thanks!
