Export timesheets for payroll

Export a pay period's approved hours as a CSV file, ready for payroll.

Sound is off

The timesheet export gives payroll one CSV row per approved timesheet (or per rate segment of a split shift) for the pay period you're looking at: the date, employee and their code, client and facility, start and end, breaks, hours, and each rate's title, factor and external code.

The file is built in the background, so you can carry on while it's prepared.

  1. Step 1

    Open Timesheets

    In the side menu, click Timesheets. It opens on Pending — the hours still waiting for review.

  2. Step 2

    Switch to Approved

    Click Approved. The export from this view includes approved hours only; anything still pending is left out, so approve it first if it should be paid.

  3. Step 3

    Pick the pay period

    Use the arrows beside the dates to move to the pay period you're paying. The export covers the dates shown.

  4. Step 4

    Narrow it if you need to

    The Staff, Client and Facility filters narrow the list, and the export follows them. Reset clears them.

  5. Step 5

    Export

    Check the rows and the total, then click Export. A message confirms the export has been requested and that it will appear in Downloads when it's ready.

  6. Step 6

    Download the file

    When it's ready, click Downloads in the top bar and download Timesheets_<date and time>.csv. Downloads expire 24 hours after the request, so save a copy.
