Timesheets to Payroll for a Trades Business

Site timesheets collected as photos and spreadsheets, re-typed into the payroll export every week.

Illustrative example. Figures are calculated from typical timings, not a measured customer result. Measured case studies, published with permission, will replace these over time.

Before

Timesheets arrive as photos, spreadsheets and messages. The office re-types hours into a spreadsheet, checks them against jobs, then keys them into payroll. About three hours every Monday, and mistakes surface on payday.

After

Timesheet files are collected from a monitored folder, hours are validated against job records and agreed limits, and a payroll import file is produced. Unusual hours are flagged for approval before anything is submitted. A person approves the final file.
