Timesheets that are right before they reach payroll
TimeTap works out clocked and paid hours with one set of rules, flags anything odd — missed clock-outs, long shifts, extra time — and lets team leaders and managers approve it daily or weekly before it is exported to payroll.
What you get
Clocked vs paid hours
See exactly what was clocked and what will be paid, with the reason for every difference.
Timesheet review
Daily and weekly views with exceptions first; approve in bulk, or send a question to the manager.
Overtime your way
Count overtime per day or per week, with weekly or monthly thresholds you set.
Approve extra time in one click
Early starts and late finishes are only paid once someone approves them — if that is how you want it.
Time-off balance
Extra hours can be banked as time off instead of overtime pay.
Payroll export
Paid hours in the format of Xero, Sage Pastel, Sage VIP, QuickBooks or a generic CSV.
Questions
Does TimeTap replace my payroll?+
You can export approved hours to the payroll you already use. In South Africa there is also a Payroll add-on that runs PAYE, UIF and SDL payslips.
What happens when someone forgets to clock out?+
It shows as an exception on the timesheet; a manager corrects or approves it before payroll.
Features as of 7 November 2026.
