I clock my time in org-mode. Because projects in my line of work can last for several years, I'd like clock reports that extend over a long period of time.

The problem is that it's annoying to keep completed subtasks in my todo files. I'd like to be able to put those in the archive. However, this destroys the clocktable structure. Anything in the archive is listed separately (it's a different file), and there's no longer any hierarchical structure to it.

What I would like is to be able to automagically merge information from the archive and the main file when the clocktable is compiled.

org-clocktable-defaults can be configured to have :scope set to agenda-with-archives and then archived entries should also be included in clock-table.

The documentation mentions possible values for the :scope field: https://orgmode.org/manual/The-clock-table.html

  • Do you mean archived in place, or archived in a separate archive file. The former is really messy. But the latter destroys the subtask structure. – hartshoj Mar 26 at 22:14
