How is overtime calculated on this timesheet?

Hours up to the weekly threshold you set (commonly 40) are paid at the standard rate. Any hours above that threshold are treated as overtime and paid at the overtime multiplier, typically 1.5×. The tool splits total hours into standard and overtime and prices each separately.

Can I track multiple projects in one week?

Yes. Each row is a project or task with its own code, description, and daily hours. The timesheet totals each row so you can see how the week split across clients or tasks, and it totals each day so daily limits are visible too.

What is the week-ending date for?

Timesheets are usually identified by the date the week ends, most often a Sunday or Friday. Recording the week-ending date makes each submission unique and lets payroll or a client match it to the correct pay period without ambiguity.

Does it handle decimal hours like 7.5?

Yes. Enter hours as decimals — 7.5 means seven and a half hours. The tool sums decimals accurately and multiplies by the rate, so part-hours are billed correctly rather than rounded away.

Is this suitable for contractor invoicing?

It produces the hours-and-rate breakdown a contractor attaches to an invoice. The billable total tells you the line amount to bill. For a full invoice with VAT and parties, pair it with an invoice builder, but the timesheet is the underlying evidence of hours worked.

A clean record of hours worked, billed correctly

A timesheet is the evidence behind every hourly payment — it shows what was worked, on which project, on which day, and what it adds up to. A vague “about 40 hours” invites disputes; a per-day, per-task breakdown does not. This builder produces a weekly timesheet that totals hours by row and by day, splits standard from overtime hours against a threshold you choose, and prices the week at your hourly rate.

How it works

Hours are entered per task across the seven days of the week. The tool sums them, then applies an overtime split:

Row hours    = Mon + Tue + Wed + Thu + Fri + Sat + Sun
Total hours  = Σ row hours

Standard hrs = min(Total hours, threshold)
Overtime hrs = max(0, Total hours − threshold)

Pay = standard hrs × rate
    + overtime hrs × rate × overtime multiplier

The threshold (often 40 hours) and the overtime multiplier (often 1.5×) are both configurable, so the timesheet matches your contract or local labour rules. Each day is also totalled across all tasks, so you can spot a day that ran long. The output is a printable text timesheet ready to submit to a client or payroll.

Tips and example

Enter hours as decimals — 7.5 rather than “7h30”. Use a short project code per row so a client can map your time to their cost centres. If your contract pays a flat rate with no overtime, set the threshold high (say 168) so all hours stay standard. If overtime starts at 40 and pays time-and-a-half, set the threshold to 40 and the multiplier to 1.5. Always set the week-ending date so each submission is uniquely identified, and keep the per-day totals honest — they are the first thing a reviewer checks.
