My Timesheets

Submit your tracked time once a month for approval. Your timesheet adds up base pay, approved overtime and approved benefit claims, shows exactly what it pays, and lets you download your salary slip once it's paid.

Timesheets overview

Open Time Sheet in the sidebar. The tiles at the top show how many timesheets are waiting for approval, how many months are available to submit, and your total tracked time this month (including any manual time). Two tabs hold your timesheets:

Submitting a month

1
Check your time
Make sure your tracked hours for the month are complete. Any manual time entries for the month are listed below the table.
2
Click Submit request
Choose the month. The dialog shows the hours you tracked against the hours expected for that month.
3
Confirm
Your timesheet is sent to your admin for approval, and they're notified by email. You'll get an email when it's reviewed.

Approved overtime and approved benefit claims for the month are added to the timesheet automatically when you submit it.

When you can submit

Months are always whole calendar months in your time zone, and you can't submit a month that hasn't started.

Monthly-paid staff

  • Your expected hours are your weekly hours spread over the days in the month — for a 40-hour week that's 160h in February, about 171h in a 30-day month and about 177h in a 31-day month.
  • You can submit the current month once it ends, or earlier if you have already reached the expected hours.
  • If the month has ended and you tracked fewer hours than expected, it shows as a Short month. You can still send it by ticking Submit anyway — your admin will see it is short.
  • You can submit each month once. If a timesheet is rejected, you can submit that month again.

Hourly and weekly staff

You're paid for the tracked time you haven't submitted yet, so you can submit any month that has started.

If your pay type hasn't been set, you can't submit yet — ask your admin to set it.

Pay breakdown

Every timesheet shows What this pays, in your pay currency:

What this pays
Base pay

Total£3,145.00
  • Base pay — your fixed monthly amount, or tracked hours × your hourly rate.
  • Overtime — approved overtime for the period.
  • Benefits — one line per approved benefit claim. See the Benefits guide.
  • Additions and deductions — any adjustments an admin makes after approval, each with its reason.

Click the total to see exactly what was approved — base amount, overtime, benefits and hourly rate as they were at approval — plus each benefit claim, any adjustments and a timeline of what happened.

If it's rejected

Your admin must give a reason when rejecting a timesheet. You get it by email, and it shows under the timesheet's title as “Rejected: …”. Your tracked time, overtime and benefit claims for that month are released, so you can fix what's needed and click Fix & resubmit.

For admins

Admins review everyone's timesheets under Company → Timesheet, with tabs for Pending, Approved, Paid and Rejected. The table shows Hours, Amount, Overtime, Benefits (with the number of claims), Total and Status, and flags any Short month.

ActionWhat happens
ApproveLocks in the base pay, overtime and benefits. You can't approve your own timesheet — another admin must.
RejectYou must give a reason. The employee is emailed and their time, overtime and claims are released so they can resubmit.
Record PaymentMarks an approved timesheet as paid, and its benefit claims as paid.
Salary slipClick an approved or paid timesheet to open its salary slip, pre-filled with basic salary, overtime pay, each benefit and any adjustments.

Totals in different currencies are shown separately, and the pending-amount banner can be converted to a reporting currency of your choice.

Salary slip designs

Every company can choose from ten built-in designs. In the salary slip editor, click Change design to open the panel with a preview of each one, then pick a design for that slip. The numbers on the slip don't change, only how it looks.

SettingWhat it doesWho can change it
Design for this slipApplies to the slip you're editing, and is saved with it.Anyone who can edit timesheets
Company defaultThe design new slips start with.People with permission to edit company info
  • Slips already saved or issued keep their design. Changing the default or deleting a template never changes them.
  • Older slips keep the original Classic red design until someone chooses another one for that slip.

Match my salary slip: people who can edit company info and use AI can upload an existing slip (PDF, JPG, PNG or WebP, up to 5 MB). The built-in AI assistant recreates its layout as a template, shown with sample data. Choose Save template to add it to your company's designs, or Try again.

  • The file is read by the built-in AI assistant. We hold it briefly while that happens, then delete it. Upload a sample or a blanked slip if you can.
  • Amounts, names and totals always come from TeamTrackin. Templates hold layout and labels only, and one that seems to contain real names, amounts, IDs or bank details is refused.
  • It uses AI credits, and you see the cost afterwards. An attempt that doesn't work uses none.
  • It runs in the background, one company's file at a time, so it can take a few minutes at busy moments. You can close the panel: a finished template waits for you there for 30 days, from any tab or device, with no new charge, until you save or discard it. If it can't start within 5 minutes it is cancelled and nothing is charged.
  • Each company can keep up to 10 of its own templates. They can only be seen and used by that company.

Salary slip fields

Each company chooses what its salary slips show about the employee. In the salary slip editor click Salary slip fields, or open it from Company details or the custom fields on a person's profile. Until someone saves a list, slips keep the standard fields.

In the panelWhat it does
Add a fieldSearch and add a built-in field, or any custom field your company already has. A slip can show up to 16 fields. File fields can't be shown on a slip.
Add new fieldCreates a custom field on the spot. It appears on everyone's profile like any other custom field, starts as optional, and nobody is made to fill it in.
Rename, reorder, removeGive a field its own label for slips, and move it up or down. Employee name and pay month are always on.
PreviewShows your list in any of your designs, using sample data.
Reset to defaultGoes back to the standard fields for new slips.
  • Everyone who can open slips can see the list. Only people who can edit company info can change it.
  • New slips fill these fields in from the employee's profile. If a custom field is empty, type a value for that slip, and choose Save to profile if it should be kept. A value already on a profile is only replaced if you confirm, and the old one stays in the field's history.
  • People who can't view someone's profile don't get its custom field values in the editor. They can still type a value for the slip.
  • Slips already saved or issued keep the labels and values they were made with, even if a field is renamed or deleted, or a profile changes later. Older slips stay as they are.
  • Anything on a slip can be read by whoever can open that slip, including the employee. Think about that before adding a field such as bank details.
  • Your own templates keep their layout. A field you remove disappears along with its label. A field the template has no place for, or one you renamed, goes into an Additional details block.
