What a timesheet module must do

5 things a timesheet module should do. We do all five.

Log project hours, separate billable time, approve by project or cost centre, show live utilisation, and feed payroll. 247HRM does all five from a single record linked to attendance and wages.

Log project hours

Employees record hours against projects and tasks from web or app, so effort is captured where the work actually happens.

Per project and task

Separate billable time

Hours are marked billable or non-billable, so revenue-earning effort is clear and ready to invoice without a manual split.

Billable vs non-billable

Approve by project

Managers review and approve timesheets by project or cost centre, so hours are signed off before they reach billing or payroll.

Project wise sign-off

Show live utilisation

Managers see utilisation by person, team and project from live data, so capacity and over-load are visible at a glance.

Live utilisation view

Feed payroll

Approved hours link to attendance and carry into payroll, so wages and overtime reflect logged time without re-keying.

Log time against projects and tasks

Employees record hours against projects and tasks from web or app, marking each entry billable or non-billable. Because timesheets sit on the same record as attendance, logged effort lines up with presence and is ready for approval without a separate upload.

Approvals by project or cost centre

Managers review and approve timesheets by project or cost centre, so hours are signed off before they reach billing or payroll. Queries go back to the employee in app, corrections are made in place, and only approved time carries forward.

Project and billing views, ready to invoice

View hours and billable time by project and cost centre, so revenue-earning effort is clear and ready to invoice. Because billable hours sit on the same record as payroll, project costing and wages are read from one source instead of two reconciled sheets.

Live utilisation, per person and project

Managers see utilisation by person, team and project from live timesheet data. Capacity, over-load and idle time are visible at a glance, so staffing decisions are made on real hours rather than a report assembled by hand at month end.

The cost of a separate timesheet tool

The hidden cost of time tracked outside payroll.

When timesheets live in a standalone tool and hours are keyed again into attendance and payroll, the same time gets entered twice, billable splits drift and utilisation is a month-end guess. Here is the difference 247HRM makes.

How it works

Time that lives where the attendance and payroll already are.

Three connections do the work: hours in, approvals in, utilisation and wages out.

Re-key hours into payrollOne record

Hours and approvals, logged once.

Logged hours link to attendance and approved time carries into payroll on a single calculation. As part of Complete HRMS, timesheets share one employee record, so time, billing and wages never drift apart.

  • Hours reused across billing, utilisation and payroll
  • Approvals update utilisation and payable hours in real time
  • Wages recompute when approved time changes

Why Indian project teams keep time inside the suite.

Verified themes from teams running project hours, billing and utilisation on 247HRM.

★★★★★

Billable hours used to be split by hand from a separate tool. Flagging them at entry meant we stopped under-invoicing client work.

Questions, answered

Your timesheet questions, answered.

Can employees log hours against projects and tasks?
Yes. Employees record hours against projects and tasks from web or app, marking each entry billable or non-billable. Because timesheets sit on the same record as attendance, logged effort lines up with presence.
How is billable time separated from non-billable?
Each timesheet entry is flagged billable or non-billable at the point of logging, so revenue-earning effort is clear and ready to invoice without a manual split later.
How do timesheet approvals work?
Managers review and approve timesheets by project or cost centre. Queries go back to the employee in app, corrections are made in place, and only approved time carries forward to billing and payroll.
Can managers see utilisation?
Yes. Managers see utilisation by person, team and project from live timesheet data, so capacity and over-load are visible as hours are approved rather than only at month end.
Do timesheets connect to attendance and payroll?
Yes. Logged hours link to attendance and approved time carries into payroll on one employee record, so wages and overtime reflect logged time without re-keying into a separate payroll tool.
Does the timesheet module work on its own?
It is built to work with 247HRM attendance and payroll, where presence and wages already live. That integration is what keeps logged time, billing and pay consistent.
Where these answers come from

Product references used across the timesheet, attendance and payroll modules:

  • 247HRM timesheets: project hours, billable time, approvals and utilisation on one record.
  • 247HRM attendance linkage: logged time aligned with presence for the same employee.
