the main alternative is to use the Org scheduling possibilities, and  
to include diary sexp entries directly into Org files.

This mainly referes to the following:

1. You can request that clocking in an entry will switch its TODO  
state, see the variable org-`clock-in-switch-to-state'

2. The clock time tables accept a ":step" parameter that allows to  
split the report into steps like days or weeks.
