Creating Timesheet Entries
Timesheet entries record what your team worked on each day. Each entry has a type, duration, and optional job link.
Entry Types
Every entry must have one of these types:
| Type | Use For |
|---|---|
| Job Time | Hours spent working on a specific job |
| Travel | Drive time between jobs or to/from job sites |
| Admin / Office | Office work, paperwork, phone calls, scheduling |
| Training | Training sessions, certifications, safety meetings |
| Shop / Yard | Equipment maintenance, loading trucks, yard cleanup |
| Other | Anything that doesn’t fit the categories above |
How to Add an Entry
- Go to Timesheets and open the timesheet for the target date.
- Click Add Entry.
- Select the entry type from the dropdown.
- Enter the duration (hours and minutes).
- Optionally link to a job — this connects the hours to that job for profitability tracking.
- Add notes if needed (e.g., “Mowed front and back yard”).
- Click Save.
Linking Entries to Jobs
When you select a job for an entry, those hours count toward the job’s labor cost in Job Profitability reports. Only Job Time entries are typically linked to jobs, but you can link any entry type.
Importing from Job Timers
If your team uses the live timer to track time on jobs, you can import those timer entries into a timesheet. Go to the timesheet and click Import from Timers to pull in unimported entries for that date.
Tips
- Create entries at the end of each workday while details are fresh.
- Use specific notes to help owners understand what was done.
- Link Job Time entries to jobs so labor costs appear in profitability reports.
