Track multiple jobs: separate hours, pay, and exports
The problem is rarely the calculator. It is usually mixing jobs, pay rates, breaks, and pay periods into one messy log.
Track work hours, overtime, multiple jobs, and clean exports in one place instead of splitting them across notes, spreadsheets, and chats.
1) Create one tracking lane per job or client
- Use a separate job, project, or client entry whenever rate, overtime logic, or invoice/export rules change.
- Keep names specific enough to filter later: “Cafe morning shift” is better than “job 1”.
- If one employer pays different rates for different work types, split those too instead of averaging later.
2) Keep shifts, breaks, and notes attached to the right job
- Save start/end time, unpaid break, and shift notes inside the same entry.
- When two jobs happen on the same day, log them as separate shifts instead of one long block.
- Review weekly totals per job before you look at the combined month, otherwise small break errors spread everywhere.
3) Export for the person who will read it
- PDF works best for client review, signatures, and simple proof of hours.
- CSV is better for payroll, accounting, or importing into another system.
- If you need one global overview, combine reports only after each job already has clean totals.
FAQ
Should I keep one timesheet for all jobs?
Usually no. A shared dashboard is fine, but each job or client should keep its own rate, shift logic, and export history.
What if two jobs use the same hourly rate?
You should still separate them if the client, manager, invoice, or payroll destination is different.
Is PDF or CSV better when I work multiple jobs?
Use PDF when a human needs to read or approve the report; use CSV when another tool or accountant needs structured data.
App & site
If you want one workflow for shifts, earnings, reports, and exports, use the app for daily tracking and the main site for the broader overview.
