Weekly Timesheet Software That Closes Every Friday On Time

Run a clean weekly timesheet cycle — employees log hours each day and submit on Friday, managers approve over the weekend or Monday morning, and payroll is ready without delay. The timesheets screen shows who has not submitted, so you only chase the people who need it. Replace weekly timesheet templates and spreadsheets with a system that runs itself. Backed by one-click approval and payroll export.

A Repeatable Weekly Timesheet Cycle

TimeTally is built around the weekly submission cycle that most UK businesses already use. Every step from Monday to Friday is automated.

Mon–Thu

Daily Logging

Employees log hours each day as they work. Or clock in/out and have the timesheet filled automatically.

Friday

Weekly Submission

Employees review their week's hours and submit the timesheet. Anyone who forgets shows as not submitted.

Fri–Mon

Manager Approval

Managers receive a notification and approve in bulk or individually. Query any entries that need clarification.

Payroll

Export & Pay

Approved weekly timesheets export to Xero, QuickBooks, or CSV. Payroll processes with accurate hours.

The Weekly Timesheet Template That Updates Itself

Forget downloading and emailing weekly timesheet templates. TimeTally creates a fresh digital weekly timesheet for every employee automatically. Each week resets cleanly, with the previous week's hours preserved in the audit trail. Employees see their week at a glance — each day's hours, running total, and weekly summary. All within the same system used for leave management and payroll.

Weekly Timesheet Status Across Your Whole Team

The employer calendar shows each employee's weekly timesheet status at a glance — submitted and pending approval, approved and complete, or missing entirely. Identify who still has to submit and who is on leave for the week. Managers see the full picture in one view and process approvals efficiently without cross-referencing multiple systems.

Employees Track Their Weekly Hours In Real Time

The employee weekly timesheet shows every day of the week with hours logged and submission status. Employees see their running weekly total and whether each day has been completed. Once they submit the week, approved data flows straight to payroll — no re-keying, no manual calculations, no delays. Export directly to Xero, QuickBooks, or download as CSV.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about weekly timesheets in TimeTally.

What is a weekly timesheet?
A weekly timesheet is a record of all hours worked during a single calendar week, typically Monday to Sunday. Employees record their start time, end time, and break for each day. The weekly total is used to calculate pay for that period. TimeTally creates a digital weekly timesheet automatically for each employee every Monday, collects daily entries, and presents a clean weekly summary for manager approval.
How is digital weekly timesheet software better than a free template?
Free weekly timesheet templates (Word, Excel, PDF) have several hidden costs: someone has to distribute them, collect them, check for errors, manually enter the data into payroll, and file the physical or digital copies. TimeTally automates all of this. Employees fill in their timesheet digitally, managers see who has not submitted and approve online, and data exports to payroll without re-entry. The admin time saved typically pays for TimeTally many times over.
Can employees fill in their weekly timesheet from their phone?
Yes. TimeTally has iPhone and Android apps and a mobile-responsive web app. Employees can log each day's hours from their phone as they work, or fill in the full week at the end. The weekly timesheet looks the same on mobile as on desktop, making it easy to submit from anywhere without needing to be at a computer.
What if an employee submits their weekly timesheet late?
TimeTally does not send reminders for you. If a weekly timesheet hasn't been submitted, the manager sees it marked "Not submitted" on the timesheets screen, so they can see exactly which employees haven't submitted for the week at a glance and follow up with just those people.
Can the weekly timesheet cycle be customised?
Yes. Most businesses use Monday to Sunday as their week, but you can configure TimeTally to use a different week start day to match your payroll period. You can also choose how long a timesheet period is, so it lines up with how often you run payroll.
How does the weekly timesheet handle bank holidays?
Bank holidays booked for an employee are shown on the weekly timesheet view automatically, and they can still log hours if they worked one. TimeTally tracks bank holidays for England & Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland separately, so the correct dates show for each employee based on their region. This feeds into annual leave balance calculations automatically.
Is there a limit to how many weeks of timesheet history is stored?
No. TimeTally stores every approved weekly timesheet permanently. You can retrieve any previous week's records instantly — useful for payroll queries, employment tribunal disputes, or HMRC audits. Records are searchable by employee, date range, or manager. There's no archive fee or data limit.
