Timesheet overview | FieldCamp
Understand FieldCamp Verified Timesheets — how the ledger is built from clock events, geofences and visit activity, who can see it, and what each tab does.
Timesheet turns the work your team already records — clock punches, job-site entry and exit, visit status changes and work timers — into a verified hours ledger you can pay from. Instead of asking technicians to fill in a sheet at the end of the week, FieldCamp reconstructs each day from the evidence it already has and flags only the entries it cannot confirm.
The module has four tabs plus a settings page. Managers work in the ledger, exception inbox and payroll review. Technicians only see their own day.
Timesheet is currently labelled BETA in the add-on marketplace.
Before you begin
- A workspace administrator must install the Timesheet add-on from Settings > Apps & Integrations. The sidebar entry does not appear until the add-on is connected.
- Your role decides what you can open. See Who can see what below.
- Team members need a working-days schedule in team management for the Days off panel to show anything. See Adding and managing team members.
- Geofence-based evidence needs client site addresses that resolve to coordinates, and technicians must allow location access on their device.
Open Timesheet
- Select Timesheet in the FieldCamp sidebar.
- Administrators, super admins, workspace owners and dispatchers land on The Ledger at
/timesheet. - Field technicians land on My day at
/timesheet/my-dayinstead.
The tab bar at the top of every Timesheet screen carries Verified Timesheets, Exception inbox, Payroll review and Labor profitability, with the period picker and a Timesheet settings control on the right.
Who can see what
Timesheet resolves your role to one of three tiers. An unrecognised or custom role is treated as a technician, so a new role never inherits manager screens by accident.
| Tier | Roles | What it can do |
|---|---|---|
| Admin | Workspace owner, Super Admin, Admin | Everything: ledger, exceptions, payroll, profit, settings, and edits to anyone's day |
| Dispatcher | Dispatcher | Ledger, exceptions, payroll, profit and edits to a technician's day; not the settings page |
| Technician | Field Technician Pro, Field Technician Lite, and any unmapped role | Their own My day screen and their own flags, read-only |
The Timesheet settings page is admin-tier only. A dispatcher who opens it sees “You don't have access to this page”.
Read the ledger
The Ledger is the default tab. It shows one row per technician for the selected period.
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Tech | Name and role |
| Hours | Regular hours for the period |
| Daily hours | A small bar per weekday, Sunday through Saturday |
| OT | Overtime hours, or a dash when there is none |
| Verified | The confidence score for that technician's reconstructed time |
| Exceptions | A flag count, or clean when nothing needs review |
Select a row to open that technician's day. See Review a technician's day.
Above the table you get four summary tiles — Total hours with the overtime split, Verified as an average percentage, Exceptions needing review, and a Resolve exceptions shortcut into the exception inbox. Run payroll in the header opens payroll review.
Managers also get their own clock on this page, so an admin or dispatcher who works a job can start and end their own day without switching to the technician screen.
Days off
The collapsible Days off panel lists each team member and the weekdays they do not work. It reads the working-days schedule from team management, so it reflects recurring days off only — there is no separate leave request flow.
How the ledger is built
Every minute on the ledger is reconstructed from:
- clock in, clock out and break punches;
- job-site geofence entry and exit;
- visit status changes such as On My Way, Reached Destination, Work in Progress and Work Complete;
- route history; and
- work timers started on individual visits.
Each reconstructed block carries a confidence score, shown as Verified, Partial or Low. The thresholds for those bands, and how much each kind of evidence counts, are configurable in Timesheet settings.
Manager corrections append to the record rather than overwriting it, so the original evidence trail stays intact and every edit is visible on the day view.
Choose the period
The picker in the tab bar controls the range for the ledger and profitability tabs, which accept day, week, month or a custom range. Payroll review accepts a week or a custom range of at most one week. The exception inbox is not date-scoped — it always lists open exceptions.
What each tab is for
The technician screen: start the day, take a break, end the day, and see your own flags.
Only the entries the ledger cannot auto-confirm, with a suggested fix for each.
Approve each technician's hours, then export CSV or prepare a QuickBooks sync.
