Timesheet template Instructions
In the top left there is a grey box that contains the key information about you and your client. Add your name and/ or company, the week or month the timesheet relates to, as well as who the work was done for (company and/ or contact person).
For the weekly timesheet add the time you started and when you finished, both in the HH:MM format. If needed, you can include any breaks, all of which go under the “lunch” section). Enter this as a number eg. one and a half hours would be 1.5 in the timesheet.
Based on this information the timesheet will automatically calculate the number of hours you worked that day. It will also provide a total for the week. When completed give it to your customer to sign and date it.
You’re now ready to invoice!

The second tab allows you log work for an entire month, on a week by week basis. It works exactly the same as above, only it contains a little more information:
Need to Print?
When your timesheet is filled in, print it out and give it to your client. Conveniently, both versions fit perfectly onto one side of A4. It’s also easy to save as an attachment to an email.
