Employee Timesheet
Hours in, accurate paychecks out, overtime included.
For small employers doing payroll math by hand, where a mis-calculated overtime week costs money or trust.
Employee Timesheet is a 6-tab Excel and Google Sheets workbook. 2 you type into, 2 calculated from those and 2 you set once. No macros, so it opens without a security warning.
- Dashboard Total hours and gross pay this period, overtime hours and what they cost, and who went over 40 in a week.
- Timesheet Employee, date, start, finish and a note. Hours, and whether they counted, work themselves out.
- Employees Employee, role, whether they are exempt, and notes.

Questions, answered
Do I need a paid Excel version?
Any desktop Excel from 2016 onward works, including Microsoft 365. If you don’t have Excel at all, use the included Google Sheets version. It’s free.
Does it fully work in Google Sheets?
Yes. The Google Sheets version is made from the same file as the Excel one and checked in Google Sheets before release. Every formula uses functions that work the same in both.
Is this a one-time purchase?
Yes. One payment, no subscription. You keep the files forever and get free updates to this template.
What does it not do?
It stops at gross pay: no tax, no deductions, no take-home. Hand the gross figures to your payroll provider or accountant. It is not payroll software or employment advice.
What’s the refund policy?
Refunds follow Etsy’s rules for digital downloads. If a template doesn’t work as described, email support@elecart.us and we will fix it.
What if I get stuck?
Email support@elecart.us and the person who built the template answers, usually within one business day. Etsy Messages works too.
How much data can it handle?
Input tabs are sized generously and tested with full sample data: enough for years of typical use. Need more room? Duplicate the file per year, or email support for an extended version.
Hours in, accurate paychecks out, overtime included.
