Submission tracking, clear deadlines, and a dead-simple mobile app mean employees have no excuse. Most UK businesses hit 90%+ on-time rates within two weeks. Use our free timesheet software to end the Friday reminder cycle for good.
Every Friday the same nightmare repeats: half the team hasn't submitted, and you're burning time chasing people instead of running the business.
Managers spend hours every week sending reminder emails and manually tracking who has and hasn't submitted.
Late timesheets mean late approvals, which hold up payroll processing and frustrate employees who want to be paid on time.
The same people forget every single week. You become their personal reminder service. Managers and HR burn out chasing the same repeat offenders.
Most late timesheets happen because the process is too complicated or takes too long. TimeTally takes under a minute to fill in on any device. Employees can even submit from the phone in their pocket, whether they're in the office or out on site. You can also reward on-time submissions to boost compliance further — meeting Working Time Regulations obligations in the process.
Fill in a timesheet from any phone in under a minute — no desktop, no training, no confusion.
Employees can clock in and out through the app. Hours are captured automatically — nothing to fill in manually at the end of the week.
Overtime, break deductions, and total hours are all calculated automatically. Employees just submit — no manual maths required.
The submission tracking dashboard shows the status of every employee's timesheet at a glance — who's submitted, who's pending approval, and who still needs a nudge. No more digging through emails or spreadsheets. Managers have complete visibility across the whole team, which is critical for timesheet approval workflows and meeting employer record-keeping obligations.

View integrationsUsually the process is too complicated, takes too long, or employees simply forget. TimeTally addresses all three: the mobile app takes under a minute, the deadline is displayed prominently so no one can claim ignorance, and the submission tracking dashboard means managers can quickly identify and address repeat late submitters with actual data.
Most businesses see a significant improvement within the first two weeks. When employees can see the deadline clearly and submit from their phone in under a minute, the barrier to on-time submission essentially disappears. The majority of late submissions come down to friction in the process — remove the friction and compliance follows.
Yes. The submission tracking dashboard shows historical data so you can identify patterns. If the same person is late every week, you have the data to address it directly rather than just chasing them again.
The dashboard flags them as outstanding so managers can follow up quickly. Employees can still submit after the deadline — the late submission is visible in the audit trail. Managers can approve it or request corrections before it goes to payroll.
Yes — this is exactly where TimeTally shines. The mobile app works on any smartphone and employees can submit from site, in the van, or anywhere else. Clock in and out with one tap. No laptop or desk required.
Yes. Each employee has an assigned manager who only sees that employee's timesheets. You can also have unlimited admin users who have visibility across the whole organisation. Managers can approve on mobile or desktop.
On-time submissions mean managers can approve timesheets earlier in the week, and approved hours export directly to Xero, QuickBooks, or CSV with one click. No manual re-keying, no delays waiting for stragglers, and payroll runs on schedule every time.
Yes. Every submission is timestamped and logged, along with every approval, rejection, and modification. This is essential for HMRC compliance under the Working Time Regulations 1998, which require employers to keep records showing workers are not exceeding the 48-hour weekly average. The audit trail also protects you during payroll disputes.
