Use this page to organize a weekly time record for people working on Linear issues, projects, and cycles. The practical goal is a manager-ready timesheet that shows who worked, which issue or project the time belongs to, and whether the week is ready for payroll, billing, or cost reporting.
A useful team timesheet does more than total hours. It separates project hours from working hours, keeps entries tied to issue context, and gives managers a review point before numbers leave the team. That review matters when several contributors touch the same project and a late correction changes payroll, client billing, or project cost.
Start with one review window, usually a week. Each contributor logs time against the Linear issue or project they worked on, adds comments where the entry needs context, and submits the week for review. The manager checks missing days, unusual totals, project assignment, and entries that do not match the expected issue work.
Approval turns a loose collection of entries into an operating record. Submitted time should stay protected while review is pending, and approved time should stay locked for regular members after payroll or billing uses it. Admin corrections still need to be possible, but they should leave a visible trail so the final record explains who changed what.
A team timesheet fails when it mixes issue progress with clock time. Estimates on Linear issues help teams size work and discuss delivery, but a payroll or cost record needs hours actually worked. Treat every time entry as a separate record with a person, date, issue or project, duration, and review status.
Managers should also watch for manual catch-up entries that arrive after the week closes. Late time is sometimes valid, but it needs a correction process instead of quiet edits. Ask for the missing context, update the record through an admin correction when needed, and keep the approved period locked once the corrected totals are accepted.
A free one-off timesheet is enough when you need a small weekly summary for a short project and no downstream system relies on the numbers. That approach breaks down when team hours feed client invoices, payroll review, project cost reports, recurring budget checks, or several Linear projects with many contributors.
Everhour adds the managed layer for that workflow. Teams track time from Linear through embedded controls, submit weekly timesheets, and use approvals, locked periods, corrections, rates, and reports before hours become invoices or exports. That turns collected time into a reviewed record instead of a spreadsheet that changes after decisions have already been made.

A weekly timesheet should group time by person, date, Linear issue or project, and review status. That structure lets a manager see each contributor's work without losing the issue context. Comments belong on entries that explain exceptions, handoffs, rework, or time logged after the original workday.
Managers should check missing days, unusually high or low daily totals, entries without issue context, and time logged after the review period closed. The approval decision should cover the whole record that will feed payroll, billing, or reporting, not just the total hours at the bottom of the sheet.
Approved time should be locked because payroll, billing, and cost reports rely on the reviewed version of the record. Regular members should not change approved entries after those numbers have been used. Admin corrections can still handle valid fixes, but the correction needs to be visible instead of replacing the original record silently.
Estimates on Linear issues should not be treated as worked hours. They describe expected effort or size for planning and progress discussions. A timesheet needs time actually spent by a named person on a specific date, tied to the issue or project where the work happened.
Late edits create the most risk when they change an approved week, move time between billable and non-billable work, or shift hours from one Linear project to another. Those changes can alter payroll review, invoice totals, and project cost reports. Use an admin correction process and keep the reason with the record.
Everhour Billing & Invoicing converts tracked billable time and expenses into invoices after the time has been reviewed. It calculates invoice amounts from rates, excludes non-billable tasks, supports client settings and invoice customization, and can export invoices to QuickBooks Online, Xero, or FreshBooks with status sync back to Everhour.
Everhour Timesheets let users submit weekly project hours or working hours for review. Managers can approve, reject, or partially approve submitted time when corrections are needed. Submitted time is locked unless withdrawn or rejected, and approved time stays locked for regular members while admins can correct time entries.
Track approved hours from Linear issues, lock reviewed periods, and keep invoice-ready time connected to rates, billable status, and accounting exports through Everhour Billing & Invoicing.
