Fill it in the way payroll reads it
One row per day worked
Write the date as day, month and year, then the actual start and finish times, not the rostered ones. A timesheet records what happened.
Record the unpaid break as hours and minutes
Write 0:30 for a half-hour meal break and 0:00 when none was taken. A missed break is worth noting: some awards pay extra for it.
Work out the hours
Finish less start less the unpaid break, as decimal hours: 8 hours 30 minutes less a 30 minute break is 8.00. A finish after midnight wraps to the next day.
Sign it and keep it
The employee and the manager sign and date the printed sheet. Employers must keep time and wage records for seven years, so file it where you can find it.
Past timesheets import as a record
We run this file through LoggerIQ’s own import in our tests: every column maps itself and every example day imports.
- Import your people first, so each row finds its person by email.
- An admin opens Settings, Import, chooses Past timesheets and Any spreadsheet (CSV), then the file.
- Date, Employee name, Email, Start time, End time, Break, Total hours, Site and Note match themselves. Set the dates to read as Day, month, year.
- Check the rows and import. Imported timesheets are kept read-only.
Only days before today are imported, because these are history. From then on, hours come from clock entries in LoggerIQ and a manager approves them in Needs you, so nobody types a timesheet again.
