Use this page to collect weekly team hours against Basecamp projects and to-dos, then turn those entries into a reviewable record for billing, payroll review, workload planning, or project reporting. The practical output is a week-by-week view by person, project, to-do, date, hours worked, and notes, with enough context for a manager or approver to understand where time went.
Team tracking needs a review cycle around individual entries. Members log time close to the work, managers review submitted weeks, and approved periods stay protected from ordinary edits. Late corrections still happen, so the process needs a named admin correction path and an activity history that explains who changed the record and why.
Start with the Basecamp structure the team already uses: project, to-do list, to-do, assignee, and due date. Team hour records should attach to the smallest useful work item, usually the to-do. A list-level total works for coarse review, but a to-do-level entry lets a manager compare hours with assignment, status, and the notes attached to that work.
Use a consistent weekly cadence: open week, daily entries, submission, manager review, approval, and lock. A reviewable team record should show a date, person, hours worked, and the relevant project or to-do context. Notes stay optional; add a short note when the task name alone does not explain the work. A note such as `client revisions on onboarding copy` gives more review value than `updates`.
A team timesheet fails when every person chooses a different level of detail. One member logs to a project, another logs to a broad list, and a third logs one weekly total with no notes. The manager then reviews totals without knowing which Basecamp to-dos absorbed the time or whether completed work, open work, and rework belong in separate entries.
Set entry rules before the week starts. Use to-do entries for assigned work, separate internal admin time from client work, and require a correction note for edits after submission. Message, schedule, or file-driven work needs a related to-do or a clear project-level category, since a reviewer needs one consistent place to reconcile the hours.
A one-week free record is enough for a small cleanup, a contractor recap, or a single project review. A managed workflow becomes necessary when the same Basecamp hours feed payroll review, client billing, budget checks, and workload planning. At that point, the record needs approvals, locked periods, admin corrections, and exports instead of loose spreadsheets.
Everhour adds that operating layer to Basecamp work through the browser extension, with tracking controls inside supported Basecamp pages and reports that include project, to-do, list, task ID, and task status. Submitted and approved timesheets can be locked for regular members, admins can correct entries, and exported team timesheets or reports carry reviewed hours into billing or payroll review.

The clearest record uses the Basecamp project for the client or initiative, the to-do list for the workstream, and the to-do for the assigned task. A project-only entry hides the actual work behind a large total. A to-do entry keeps hours close to the assignee, due date, status, and notes that a reviewer checks.
A weekly submission cycle gives managers a complete period to approve while the work is still fresh. Daily entry inside the week keeps the totals accurate, and the weekly review keeps payroll or billing from using half-entered time. The submitter should clear missing notes and obvious duplicate entries before approval.
Useful notes name the work result or decision instead of the tool the person opened. `Fixed checkout validation on signup form` tells a reviewer more than `coding`. Meeting notes need the meeting purpose, such as planning, client review, or internal handoff. Short notes work as long as they explain the time without requiring a chat search.
Late edits need a narrow path because approved hours already affect invoices, payroll review, and reports. A regular member should not reopen an approved week casually. Route the change through an admin or approver, record the reason, and preserve the earlier approval context so the final record explains the correction.
The fastest damage comes from mixing work categories in one total: client work, internal admin, rework, and time off all lose meaning when they share one vague line. Reviewers need separated entries by project, to-do or category, person, date, and notes. A clean split keeps billable review and payroll review from relying on guesses.
Everhour Resource Planning puts planned workload and tracked time on visual timelines, with member and project views for Basecamp-connected work. Managers compare weekly capacity, scheduled time off, availability gaps, and planned-vs-actual hours before assigning more work or approving a week that already shows overload.
Everhour Timesheets lets team members submit weekly project hours or working hours, then managers approve, reject, or partially approve the submission. Submitted time is locked unless withdrawn or rejected, and approved time stays locked for regular members, giving admins a controlled correction path before billing or payroll review.
Use Everhour Resource Planning to compare Basecamp workload plans with tracked time, capacity, scheduled time off, and availability gaps, then keep approved hours ready for billing or payroll review.
