Breaks & pause calculation
Pauses are where many timesheet mistakes happen. Recording them correctly keeps overtime and earnings reports consistent.
Track work hours, overtime, multiple jobs, and clean exports in one place instead of splitting them across notes, spreadsheets, and chats.
1) What to track for pauses
- Break start/end (or your pause duration)
- Whether the break is fixed or changes by shift
- Overnight shifts that cross midnight
2) A simple workflow
- Plan your shift window (if your schedule repeats)
- Record the actual hours and pauses
- Review the week/month totals before export
3) Export with confidence
- PDF for sharing and review
- CSV for payroll/accounting workflows
- Keep your projects/clients separated when needed
FAQ
Does a short break really matter?
Yes. Small pause differences can add up—especially when you calculate regular hours vs overtime.
How do I keep exports consistent?
Export from the same week/month view you use for your checks, so the pause logic stays aligned across PDF and CSV.
