Create time tracking report

Everhour turns tracked project hours into reviewable timesheets and reports, so a weekly time report does not start from memory.

Time records that become usable reports

Start with the report purpose

Create the report around the decision it supports. A payroll report needs each person's daily hours worked and total hours worked each workweek. A client billing report needs billable time by project, task, rate, and invoice status. A project management report needs actual hours against estimates, budget, or remaining work. Mixing every field into one export slows review and hides the numbers that matter.

For U.S. wage-and-hour records, covered employers must keep accurate records for non-exempt workers, but the FLSA does not require one specific timekeeping form or system. Employer records for employees covered by the FLSA minimum wage or overtime provisions must include hours worked each workday and total hours worked each workweek. The report format can vary, but the underlying records must stay complete and accurate.

Include the right time fields

A usable time tracking report starts with person, date, project, task, client, time entered, billable status, and notes when notes explain the work. Payroll review also needs the workweek total because federal overtime for covered non-exempt employees is based on hours worked over 40 in a fixed 168-hour workweek. Hours cannot be averaged across two or more workweeks for FLSA overtime purposes.

Billing reports need a different lens. Include billable and non-billable time separately, the rate used for each billable entry, and the currency shown on client-facing amounts. For U.S. users, time-based billing and payroll fields normally use U.S. dollars. A clean report separates internal time from invoiceable time so a client sees approved work lines instead of every operational note.

Avoid report gaps and duplicates

End-of-week reconstruction creates weak reports because people forget short calls, context switching, and work split across projects. The report should show time as close to the work as practical, with entries tied to the project or task that caused the time. A report that says 8 hours of "client work" gives less support than four entries tied to specific deliverables, meetings, or tickets.

Duplicate tracking also causes review problems. A timer entry and a manual entry for the same work can inflate project cost, billable totals, and payroll review totals. A strong report makes corrections visible before approval, especially when a person edited a past date, forgot to stop a timer, or moved time from one client to another. The goal is a defensible record, not a prettier spreadsheet.

Move from one report to review

A one-off report is enough when you need a weekly total, a quick client summary, or a backup file for a small job. Keep the report narrow, export only the fields the reviewer needs, and retain the supporting time records. Employers must preserve payroll records for at least three years and basic time and earnings records, such as daily start and stop time cards or sheets, for at least two years.

A managed workflow fits recurring payroll, client billing, or team approvals. Everhour Timesheets collect weekly project hours and working hours by person, then let users submit time for approval. Managers can approve, reject, partially approve, and lock submitted time before payroll or billing uses it. That workflow turns the report from a static export into a review trail.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which fields belong in a time tracking report?

A practical report includes employee or contractor name, date, project, task, client, hours, billable status, rate when billing applies, and reviewer status when approval is required. Payroll reports for employees covered by the FLSA minimum wage or overtime provisions also need daily hours worked and total hours worked each workweek.

Can one report support both payroll and client billing?

One source of time entries can support both, but the report views should differ. Payroll review focuses on workweek totals, covered non-exempt status, approvals, and pay-related records. Client billing focuses on approved billable time, project or task descriptions, rates, and invoice status. Separate views reduce accidental disclosure and review noise.

Should a time report show start and stop times or total hours?

Total hours work for many billing and project reports, but start and stop records can support time and earnings records when employers need detailed backup. The FLSA allows any complete and accurate method for covered non-exempt worker records, so the decisive issue is whether the records support daily and weekly hours worked.

Does a weekend entry need a special overtime line?

A Saturday, Sunday, holiday, or regular rest-day entry does not create federal overtime premium pay by itself under the FLSA. Covered non-exempt employees must receive overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a workweek at not less than one and one-half times the regular rate, unless another law or agreement adds a different rule.

Which mistake makes a time report unreliable?

The biggest mistake is building the report from memory after the workweek closes. Reconstructed entries miss short work blocks, duplicate time across projects, and blur billable status. A reliable report uses current entries, clear project or task labels, and an approval step before totals move into payroll, billing, or client records.

How does Everhour handle timesheet approval for reports?

Everhour Timesheets collect weekly project hours and working hours by person so managers can review time before payroll, billing, or reporting. Users submit time for approval, and managers can approve, reject, partially approve, or lock entries when corrections or final review are needed.
