QuickBooks Tip: Simplify Payroll with TSheets

Are you spending countless hours each week manually entering employee timesheet information? Deciphering handwritten notes, chasing down unaccounted-for hours, and losing billable time to payroll can be a thing of the past.

Say hello to TSheets, the time-tracking software designed for businesses that want to track, manage and report time with ease. It’s time to take your Fridays back.

Available to download in the Intuit App Center, TSheets integrates seamlessly with QuickBooks, reducing payroll processing time from hours to just minutes. Track each customer, employee, and project’s time in TSheets, sync those hours into your QuickBooks account, and run payroll.

How TSheets Works

TSheets supports your business by automating the time tracking process. Employees can clock in and out on their desktop, laptop, or mobile phone—using iPhone or Android apps, text messaging and dial-in. By using the TSheets Time Tracker app, a manager can group employees into crews and clock in an entire group at once. TSheets also allows employees to track time against specific customers and jobs, populating reports and giving you a real-time look at your business. In addition, TSheets integrates with most payroll service providers, adding further efficiency to the payroll process.

Integrated with QuickBooks

Similarly, QuickBooks is all about saving you time and headaches by organizing each job, customer, and employee paycheck.

TSheets integrates seamlessly, importing that information from your QuickBooks account with a single click of a button when setting up your TSheets account. Once the QuickBooks import is complete, each employee can then clock in, and proceed to track time against any assigned customer or job. Sync those timesheets into QuickBooks, and they will magically appear in your Weekly Timesheets.

What it can do

TSheets features include:

• The “Who’s Working” feature allows administrators and managers to see who is currently on the clock in real-time.
• The TSheets mobile apps for iPhone or Android, with flexible GPS settings, give employees the ability to clock in and out, and track their time from anywhere.
• Managers can log into the company TSheets account from their mobile device to view who is on the clock, as well as manage crews from out in the field.
• Real-time reporting offers a snapshot of total hours allocated to payroll, projects, clients and more. This gives you the power to manage expenses, as they occur, while keeping an eye on overtime and paid time off (PTO).
• Users can receive overtime alerts and manage timesheet notes.
• Seamless integration with QuickBooks.
• Seamless integration with most payroll service providers.

Never have payroll and time tracking gotten along so well. According to the American Payroll Association, companies can save an average of 2% of each employee’s total salary by using automated systems that reduce payroll errors and speed up the overall process.
