Enter a weekly timesheet in QuickBooks Online

by Intuit7 Updated 2 weeks ago

Learn how to enter a weekly timesheet in QuickBooks Online.

With weekly timesheets, you can enter the total number of hours worked by your employee or supplier for the week.

If you need, you can also learn more about entering a single time activity sheet.

Weekly timesheets are non-posting transactions. This means they don't show up on reports like Profit and Loss until you add them to a sale or expense. Tip: Timesheets only allow a single hourly rate. If you have employees and need to track multiple hourly rates, set them up in QuickBooks Payroll.

Note: If you use QuickBooks Time, you'll track time a different way.

  1. Select + New.
  2. Under Team, select Weekly timesheet.
  3. Using the ▼ dropdown icon, select the name of the employee or supplier and the week you want to record.
  4. Complete the rest of the fields.

    Note: To change the days available, select the Settings ⚙ icon below the Total Hours.

    • Customer or project. Select the customer or project you want to bill the activity to, or track expenses.
    • Service. Select the service that represents the activity.
    • Billable (/hr). Select the checkbox and enter the rate, if you want to bill the activity to the customer.
    • Location and Class. Check out how to turn on these features if they're not available.
    • Description. Enter a description of the activity.
    • Enter the number of hours and minutes your employee or supplier worked on this activity.
  5. Select Save or Save and close.
