Australian managers need one clean weekly view across many contributors: who worked, which Basecamp project they touched, which to-do carried the time, and whether the week is ready for approval. The practical output is a reviewed timesheet instead of a loose list of timer fragments. Each row needs enough context for a manager, bookkeeper, or client lead to understand the work without reopening every conversation.
Basecamp projects hold the project structure, to-do lists, to-dos, assignees, due dates, files, schedules, and messages that explain the work. The time record should stay tied to that structure. Keep hours close to the relevant to-do whenever possible, and use notes only to clarify the entry. A good weekly review catches missing time, vague notes, and work logged to the wrong project before payroll or client billing uses it.
A useful Basecamp timesheet starts with the person, date, hours worked, and a short note when the entry needs explanation. For project work, add the Basecamp project, list, to-do, task ID, and task status so the reviewer sees both the labor and the work item. Use the to-do as the main unit for delivery work because it carries the clearest assignment and completion context.
Team reporting gets messy when people log time against project names alone. A row labeled only by project forces the reviewer to guess whether the time belongs to a to-do, a list, or a follow-up task. A cleaner row names the Basecamp project, list, to-do, task status, and hours. That level of detail supports weekly approval, billing review, and later questions about why the work took place.
Team timesheets become trustworthy when the manager reviews the whole week before approving it. Check daily totals, missing days, entries added after the fact, and work that sits outside the expected Basecamp to-do structure. Color coding, reminders, and activity history help surface unusual totals, missing hours, auto-stopped timers, and later changes when the workflow uses Everhour.
After review, submitted time should lock for ordinary edits. Approved time should stay locked for regular members, while admin corrections stay controlled and traceable. That separation matters for Australian teams because payroll and client billing often happen after the weekly review. Late, untracked changes force a second review and weaken the record that accounting or the project lead already accepted.
A one-off weekly export is enough when the team needs a filtered list of entries for a short project, a quick internal check, or a simple handoff. The export should show the current view by person, project, and date, with enough notes to answer basic review questions. This workflow breaks down when multiple projects, billable rules, approvals, or corrections need the same source of truth week after week.
Everhour turns the Basecamp week into a managed record by collecting submitted time, routing it through approval, locking approved periods for regular members, and allowing admin corrections when a record needs cleanup. The same tracked billable time and expenses can feed invoice generation, with non-billable work excluded from invoice totals and status synced back after export to QuickBooks Online, Xero, or FreshBooks.

The reviewer should confirm every entry has a person, date, hours worked, Basecamp project, and the specific to-do or list that explains the work. Australian teams should also separate project hours from paid time away from project work when that context affects payroll review, billing, or capacity reporting.
Use the to-do as the clearest row-level anchor for delivery work, then keep the list and project as grouping context. A project-only entry hides the actual assignment and makes approval slower. A list-only entry can work for broad recurring support only when the reviewer already knows the exact work category.
Reviewed hours should stop changing through ordinary member edits after submission or approval. Corrections still need a path, especially when a person chose the wrong to-do, entered hours on the wrong date, or missed time before cutoff. The manager should record the correction and keep the revised weekly total visible for the next handoff.
Billable invoice records should exclude tasks the client contract, statement of work, or internal policy treats as non-billable. Common examples include internal administration, rework outside the billing agreement, or coordination time that the client did not authorize for billing. Keep those hours in the record for staffing and profitability review, even when they stay off the invoice.
Activity history, submission timing, daily totals, and changed entries give the manager the fastest trail. Late edits after approval create a payroll review problem because the accepted total no longer matches the exported or summarized record. A clean process routes corrections through an admin and rechecks the affected person, date, and project before payroll uses the number.
Everhour Billing & Invoicing turns tracked billable time and expenses into invoices calculated from rates, time, and billable expenses, while excluding non-billable work. Exports to QuickBooks Online, Xero, or FreshBooks copy invoices as drafts and keep status, number, issue date, and amount visible in Everhour.
Everhour Timesheets lets team members submit weekly project hours or working hours for manager review. Managers can approve, reject, or partially approve submitted time, and approved time stays locked for regular members while admins retain the ability to correct records when cleanup is needed.
Track Basecamp to-do time, approve the week, and send billable hours and expenses into client invoices. Everhour keeps invoice status tied back to the tracked work.
