You came here to record work time quickly, then leave with a clean weekly total. A simple tracker should let you enter hours by day, assign them to a project or task, separate billable from non-billable time, and review the week before you use the data for billing, payroll, budgets, or utilization.
For U.S. employers covered by the FLSA, the recordkeeping baseline matters when the time belongs to covered nonexempt workers. Employer records must include hours worked each workday and total hours worked each workweek. The FLSA requires complete and accurate records, but it does not require a specific form, app, clock, or spreadsheet.
An easy workflow starts with the few fields that decide the outcome: person, date, project or client, task, time amount, billable status, and notes when the entry needs context. A timer works well while the task is active. Manual entry works when you record known hours after the work is done and can still identify the correct day and workweek.
The biggest mistake is rebuilding the week from memory after the work has moved on. Reconstructed entries usually lose task detail first, then billable status, then the exact workday. That creates cleanup for invoices and payroll review. A quick daily habit keeps the record usable without turning time tracking into a second job.
U.S. overtime review under the FLSA uses a fixed workweek, a regularly recurring period of seven consecutive 24-hour periods. Unless exempt, covered employees must receive overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in that workweek at not less than one and one-half times the regular rate of pay. Hours may not be averaged across two or more workweeks for FLSA overtime purposes.
Billing uses the same raw hours in a different way. Client invoices usually need project, task, rate, billable status, and notes that explain the work. Payroll review needs daily and weekly hours, employee category, and any policy or jurisdiction rules that apply. A tracker becomes easier to trust when it preserves both views instead of forcing one total to serve every purpose.
A one-off tracker is enough when you need a clean weekly total, a quick project summary, or a short-term record for one person. It also works for a freelancer who bills a few projects and reviews entries before sending an invoice. The key is exporting or saving the record before the context disappears.
A managed workflow fits better when several people submit time, managers approve entries, and the same records feed billing or payroll review. Everhour Timesheets collect weekly project hours and working hours, let users submit time for approval, and let admins approve, reject, partially approve, or lock submitted entries before they become reporting or billing inputs.

Start with the fields that change the result: date, person, project or client, task, time amount, and billable status. For FLSA-covered nonexempt workers, employer records must include hours worked each workday and total hours worked each workweek, so daily and weekly structure matters as much as the total.
A timer captures work as it happens, which reduces end-of-week reconstruction. Manual entry works when the person records known time promptly and assigns it to the right day, project, and task. Teams often use both, with timers for active work and manual entries for corrections or work captured away from the main device.
A simple tracker can support overtime review when it keeps daily hours and totals each fixed workweek. Under the FLSA, unless exempt, covered employees receive overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a workweek at not less than one and one-half times the regular rate. State law, policy, or contract rules can add requirements.
Weekend work needs a separate label only when your payroll, billing, policy, contract, or local rule requires it. The FLSA does not require overtime premium pay solely for Saturday, Sunday, holiday, or regular rest-day work unless the weekly overtime rule is triggered or another law or agreement applies.
U.S. employers must preserve payroll records for at least three years and basic time and earnings records, including daily start and stop time cards or sheets, for at least two years. A simple tracker should leave you with a durable export or saved record, especially when the data supports payroll or billing review.
Everhour Timesheets collect weekly project hours and working hours by person, then let users submit time for review. Managers can approve, reject, partially approve, and lock submitted entries, so payroll or billing review starts from approved records instead of loose notes or unfinished weekly totals.
Everhour embeds tracking controls inside tools such as Asana, ClickUp, GitHub, Linear, Jira, Monday, Notion, Trello, and Basecamp. Teams can start timers or add manual entries where tasks already live, then use the tracked time for reports, budgets, invoices, and payroll review.
Move beyond loose weekly totals with Everhour Timesheets. Collect project and working hours, review submissions, lock approved time, and give billing or payroll a cleaner record.
