• [h]:mm vs. Decimal Formats: Each templates contains a separate worksheet tab for entering times using either h:mm or decimal format.
• The h:mm time format is the simple for employee to use because most people think of time in hours and minutes. If you allow employees to enter times rounded to minute or 5 minutes, use the h:mm format.
• The decimal hour format works fine if you are rounding to nearest 15 minutes.
• Update Company Information: After deciding what time format to use, update Company information, and customize the timesheet as needed. If you don’t need the signature lines, you may delete those rows.
• Overtime Hours: You can assign separate pay rate for regular hours and overtime hours. You may want to add custom notes to timesheet to explain policies for overtime, vacation.
• Optional Rate & Pay Information: If you only need to keep track for hours, or if you are using printed blank timesheets, you can delete the rows that contain the rate and pay information.
• Ink-Friendly Design: If you are concerned about using too much colored ink when printing regularly, you can remove the background colors and change font colors to black.
