Two ways people use this timesheet generator

The same PDF works for both — but the workflow around it is different depending on who you’re sending it to.

Use case A

Agency contractor on a long engagement

You’re placed at a client through a recruitment agency. They need a signed timesheet by Monday 10am to process Friday’s payroll. Build it Sunday evening, email it to your manager for sign-off, forward the countersigned copy to the agency.

What matters: consistent layout each week, hours by day, project reference number on every line.

Use case B

Direct freelancer on a retainer

You bill a client direct for time spent. The timesheet is the attachment to the monthly invoice — proof of where the hours went, broken down by project or deliverable. The client wants it; their finance team requires it.

What matters: itemised projects, totals that match the invoice, and a professional finish that holds up next to corporate paperwork.

About the timesheet generator

For hourly contractors, agency staff and freelancers billing by the hour, the timesheet is the document the client signs off on — and the document that decides what gets paid. A clean, well-typeset timesheet with hours by day, project notes and totals is what most clients expect, and it’s often what an agency’s accounts team requires before they’ll process an invoice. AllSquare’s free timesheet generator builds one in your browser. Fill in your details, add the client, list hours per day with project notes and rates, and download a polished PDF. No sign-up, no email, no watermark. Use it for one-off contracts or as part of a regular weekly billing rhythm.

Four steps from blank to PDF

  1. 1

    Add your details

    Your name or company, contact info and (optionally) a logo. These appear at the top of the timesheet.

  2. 2

    Add the client

    Client name and any reference number. Useful for agencies who match timesheets to a job code.

  3. 3

    List hours per day

    Enter hours worked per day with brief notes (project, task, deliverable). Add overtime as a separate line if it’s at a different rate.

  4. 4

    Set the rate and download

    Enter your hourly rate (and overtime rate if different). The PDF totals everything up; download and submit for approval.

    Pair with the AllSquare app

    Use the iOS app to invoice for your tracked time, manage clients, and track which timesheets have been paid.

Timesheet questions

Is the PDF watermarked or branded with AllSquare?

No. Your timesheet PDF carries your details (and your logo, if you upload one) — nothing else. No AllSquare watermark, no “generated with…” footer, no sign-up. Submit it to your client or agency as if you’d typed it up in Word.

Is a timesheet the same as an invoice?

No. A timesheet is a record of hours worked — usually submitted for client approval. An invoice is the formal bill that comes after, often referencing the approved timesheet. Many contractors send both: timesheet first, invoice once approved.

How do I handle overtime hours?

Add a separate line item with the overtime rate (often 1.5x or 2x standard). The PDF totals everything up cleanly so the client and your finance team can see the breakdown.

Can I include multiple projects on one timesheet?

Yes. Each line can reference a different project or task. Group by day or by project — whichever your client expects.

How often should I submit timesheets?

Weekly is most common for contractors and agency work; fortnightly for longer engagements. Some agencies require timesheets by Monday morning for the previous week — check what your client expects.

Can I use this on my phone?

Yes. The web tool works on any device. For ongoing time tracking and invoicing on the go, the AllSquare iOS app pairs timesheets with invoicing in one place.

Timesheets feed invoices. Don’t do both by hand.

The AllSquare iOS app turns tracked time straight into a sent invoice — same line items, same client, no copy-paste. Free to download, free tier to start.
