Every report you need — configured your way, always up to date.
Tracked hours flow straight into a polished invoice — no copy-paste, no manual math.
A time tracking widget is for turning scattered work sessions into a clean weekly record. You need daily hours, project or client labels, task notes, and a billable status when the time feeds an invoice. For U.S. teams, records for employees covered by FLSA minimum wage or overtime provisions must include hours worked each workday and total hours worked each workweek.
The practical goal is a record you can review without rebuilding the week from memory. A freelancer can separate client work from admin time. A manager can compare submitted hours against project assignments. A bookkeeper can see which hours belong on an invoice and which belong only in internal payroll or cost reports.
A complete entry starts with the work date, person, project, task, and time amount. Add start and stop times when you need a stronger audit trail, especially for nonexempt employee records. Billable work also needs a rate, currency, and client label. For U.S. billing examples, rate fields normally use U.S. dollars.
Manual entries work when the user records time right after the task. Timers work better for fragmented days because they capture short sessions as they happen. Teams should also separate billable and non-billable time, since project profitability, utilization, and invoice totals depend on that split.
A widget should collect the fields that change the final record, then keep the rest out of the way. Date, project, task, person, hours, and billable status belong in the first screen. Optional notes help explain unclear entries, but long descriptions slow down quick logging and create inconsistent records across the team.
The common mistake is treating a compact tracker as a full policy system. A widget can total the week, but it does not replace pay rules, approval steps, or privacy controls. Covered nonexempt employees must receive overtime pay for hours worked over 40 in a fixed 168-hour workweek at not less than 1.5 times the regular rate of pay, unless an exemption applies.
A one-off weekly total is enough when you need a fast personal record, a simple client summary, or a draft timesheet before review. It works best for low-risk work where the same person enters, checks, and uses the hours. The record should still preserve the date, project, task, and billable status.
A managed workflow becomes necessary when tracked time affects payroll, client billing, project budgets, or team reporting. 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 entries before payroll or billing uses them.

A practical widget should include the work date, person, project or client, task, time amount, billable status, and notes. U.S. employers with employees covered by FLSA minimum wage or overtime provisions also need records showing hours worked each workday and total hours worked each workweek.
A compact tracker is enough only when it captures complete and accurate records required for the worker category and jurisdiction. Under the FLSA, covered employers may choose any complete and accurate timekeeping method for nonexempt workers, but the records must still support daily hours, weekly totals, and payroll review.
Timers capture work as it happens, which reduces end-of-week reconstruction. Manual entries are useful for correcting missed sessions or adding time after a meeting. Teams should define when manual edits are acceptable, since late changes can weaken the record used for billing, payroll, or project reporting.
Weekend or holiday work does not create a federal overtime premium by itself under the FLSA. Covered nonexempt employees receive federal overtime when hours worked exceed 40 in a workweek, unless another law, policy, contract, or agreement gives a different premium.
Federal rules require employers to 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. State rules, contracts, and business policies can require longer retention.
Everhour Timesheets collect weekly project hours and working hours by person, then route submitted time to managers for review. Managers can approve, reject, partially approve, and lock entries, which gives payroll and billing teams a controlled record before hours move forward.
Everhour can run as a standalone tracker or inside tools such as Asana, ClickUp, GitHub, Linear, Jira, Monday, Notion, Trello, and Basecamp. Teams can track time where tasks already live while keeping submitted hours available for review and reporting.
Track weekly project hours, submit timesheets for review, and lock approved entries before billing or payroll. Everhour gives teams a controlled time record that supports payroll and billing review.
