For electrical contractors

Electrician time tracking that explains the invoice

Get clean hours from your crew. Get invoices your customers don't fight. Your electricians clock in from their phone and leave one line about what got done. You hand the customer a record they can follow.

No credit card required. 14-day free trial. Cancel anytime.

Hours alone lose the argument

A T&M invoice asks the customer to take your word for it. When they can't reconstruct the charge, they don't decide they're wrong. They decide they're being padded.

Compare two lines for the same day of work:

8.77 hrs

Thu 7:02a to 3:48p. Pulled and terminated circuits 12 to 18, second-floor east wing.

The first survives payroll. The second ends the conversation. The charge was fair; the explanation was missing. Getting the crew to write that second line is the real job of electrician time tracking, and it only works if it takes them seconds.

How it works on an electrical crew

  1. 01

    Set up the job with a bill rate

    Add the job and what you charge for it. The bill rate is kept separate from what you pay your electricians, so a document you hand the customer can never show your labor cost or margin.

  2. 02

    The crew clocks in from their phone

    Pick the job, tap clock in. GPS is recorded with the clock-in and clock-out punches, never in between.

  3. 03

    One line about what got done

    Before clocking out, the app asks what they worked on. Recent notes come back with one tap, so a repeat task costs the electrician seconds. That line is what turns 8.77 hours into an answer.

  4. 04

    Print the packet, then bill

    Print a billing packet for the job: date, clock times, who worked, what was done, hours, bill rate, amount. Export a CSV, or push the hours to QuickBooks Online with the Sync button.

A good fit if

  • You run a small electrical crew and bill some or all of your work T&M.
  • Customers question the hours on your invoices, and you end up discounting work you did.
  • Your crew fills out paper timesheets at the end of the week, from memory.
  • You use QuickBooks Online, or you just need clean hours in a spreadsheet.

What it does not do

  • Geofencing. There is no automatic clock-in when someone arrives on site.
  • Approval workflows. There is no supervisor sign-off step on time entries.
  • Invoicing. FieldTimesheet produces the backup; QuickBooks or your own system issues the invoice.
  • Offline punches. Clocking in or out needs a signal; with none, the punch fails with an error and any work note stays on the phone until they tap again.
  • Scheduled QuickBooks pushes. Hours go to QuickBooks Online when an admin clicks Sync, one way, and are not attached to a QuickBooks customer yet.

If you need any of those today, compare options first: FieldTimesheet vs QuickBooks Time, vs Clockify.

One price for the whole crew

$99 per month covers your company and up to 10 workers, then $8 per month for each additional worker. Mobile clock-in, GPS stamps, job costing, the billing packet, and QuickBooks Online sync are all included.

Frequently Asked Questions

A record of the work, not just the hours. Electrical T&M invoices get questioned line by line, and a timesheet that only says 8.77 hours gives the customer nothing to agree with. FieldTimesheet asks each electrician for one line about what got done before clocking out, and that line prints on the billing packet next to the hours.

No. GPS is recorded with the clock-in and clock-out punches, never in between. The billing packet notes that a location was recorded with the punch. There is no movement trail.

Punches need a connection. With no signal, the punch fails with an error, any work note they typed stays on the phone, and they tap again once they have bars. Offline punch queuing is not built yet.

No. Hours, reports, the billing packet, and CSV export all work without QuickBooks. If you use QuickBooks Online, an admin can push time entries to it with the Sync button. The sync is one way and does not run on a schedule.

No. The billing packet resolves the bill rate only. Pay rates, labor cost, and margin stay on the internal job cost report, which is labeled internal.

$99 per month covers your company and up to 10 workers, then $8 per month for each additional worker. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial with no credit card. Full details are on the pricing page.
