Stop building timesheets by hand.

Manual timesheets are slow, error-prone, and easily manipulated. Copying hours from paper sign-in sheets into spreadsheets wastes management time and introduces errors that inflate payroll. When clock-in data is captured automatically by GPS and fed into structured timesheet records, every hour is accounted for accurately — before it reaches payroll.

How timesheets work in Staffapp.ai

Automatic Generation

Clock events create timesheet entries instantly — no manual input required.

  • Clock-in, clock-out, and break events logged automatically
  • Hours worked calculated from timestamps
  • Break minutes deducted automatically
  • Source tracked: clock, manual, import, or schedule

One-Click Approval

Managers review and approve timesheets in seconds, not hours.

  • Pending → Approved → Payroll pipeline
  • Reject entries with notes for correction
  • Approver and timestamp logged for audit
  • Review by day, week, or pay period

Manual Entry When Needed

Add or adjust entries for edge cases — missed punches, schedule changes, corrections.

  • Manual entry for missed clock-ins or outs
  • Manager notes on every adjustment
  • Full edit history preserved
  • Flagged separately from automatic entries

Direct Payroll Feed

Approved hours connect directly to payroll records — no re-entry, no export.

  • Gross pay calculated from approved hours
  • Hourly and salaried compensation supported
  • Deductions tracked, net pay computed
  • Payroll records linked to specific pay period

From clock-in to payroll — zero manual steps.

Payroll used to eat half my Friday. Now I approve hours in 10 minutes and we're done. I don't know how we survived before this.

Frequently asked questions

How are timesheets generated?+

Every GPS clock-in and clock-out event automatically creates a timesheet entry. Hours worked, break time, and overtime are calculated without manual input. Managers review and approve before hours feed into payroll.

Can managers edit timesheet entries?+

Yes. Managers can add manual entries, adjust hours, and add notes when needed. All edits are tracked with a source field (clock, manual, import, or schedule) for full audit visibility.

How does timesheet approval work?+

Timesheets have three statuses: pending, approved, and rejected. Managers review each entry and approve with one click. Only approved hours feed into payroll records. The approver and timestamp are logged automatically.

Do timesheets connect to payroll?+

Yes. Approved timesheet hours flow directly into payroll records. Gross pay is calculated automatically based on the employee compensation record — hourly rate or monthly salary. Deductions are tracked and net pay is computed.

What if an employee forgets to clock out?+

Staffapp sends a missed clock-out alert automatically. Managers can then add a manual entry or adjust the timesheet. The system flags the entry so it gets reviewed before payroll.
