Is there a way to pay contractors from the time they record in QBTime? Several QBO 'experts' have said I have to manually do it, despite it's advertised to be able to do so.

I have to manually multiply their total hours by their rate. The problem is their time that's allocated and recorded to specific projects in QBO creates a double entry when that actual expense comes through the bank feed. That means I have to go through and not only manually split every check to each project appropriately, I have to delete every time entry because it's a duplicate. I've attached a snippet of a billable time entry for the same work prior to deleting the time entry to show how it creates a duplicate for the time and actual expense.
It doesn't matter whether or not it's billable, that's irrelevant because that's only for creating an invoice to the customer - every QBO expert was adamant this was the way until we walked through it. Everything is exported correctly from QBTime and since this issue only has to do with paying contractors it's only QBO, nothing to do with QBTime - something else QBO experts were adamant about. There's also an average of 3-5% more likelihood of human errors when something has to be done manually vs automated. So is there a way or why is it advertised as such?
