Track Your Timesheet with Keeping

With the timesheet app from Keeping, not only does tracking hours become easier, but a manager or employer can also immediately see the status of hours within a specific project. The only action required from you is clicking the start and stop button.

The Old-Fashioned Way

Tracking Timesheets in Excel

Many people use Excel to create a timesheet because it is a simple and accessible solution. However, in the long run, it is certainly not the best choice. Below are the key disadvantages of maintaining your time tracking in Excel.

Disadvantages of a Timesheet in Excel

  • Lack of Overview Viewing and maintaining a timesheet in Excel for one person is often manageable. However, when multiple employees collaborate on different projects, it becomes nearly impossible to track profitability per task or project in Excel. Managing multiple Excel files quickly leads to a loss of overview.
  • Not Flexible An Excel file is not flexible and is not always accessible everywhere. If you travel frequently, an Excel-based timesheet is not always available. Additionally, if something goes wrong and the file is lost, it can cause major problems if there are no backups.
  • Compliance Issues When using an Excel file, you can’t be sure whether your records meet tax authority requirements. This is crucial because the amount of tax you owe depends on your recorded working hours. Therefore, it’s essential to keep your timesheet properly organized.

But what are the advantages of Keeping? Read about them below:

The Timesheet App from Keeping

Errors in timesheets often occur when hours are recorded retroactively. This can be due to procrastination or an inflexible system. Keeping is the solution to cumbersome programs and methods used for timesheets. Keeping enables the following:

  1. Flexible and Accurate The timesheet app from Keeping is available on Google Play and App Store. This makes the app accessible to anyone with a mobile phone. You can easily clock in when starting a task and clock out when it’s completed. Additionally, modified time entries by employees can be reviewed in a single overview. This makes it a reliable and accurate time tracking system.
  2. Versatile A timesheet can be based on a specific task, client, or project, keeping it organized. When multiple employees log time on a particular task or project, you get an instant overview of total hours worked by each team member. This also simplifies invoicing.
  3. Synchronization Since all time entries are stored in a secure cloud environment, the timesheet is accessible anytime and anywhere, as long as you have an internet connection.
  4. Tax Benefits The amount of income tax a self-employed entrepreneur pays depends on the number of hours invested in their business. Additionally, the clear timesheet from Keeping makes applying for the WBSO tax reduction much simpler.
