Timesheet & Hourly Invoice Generator
A timesheet invoice is a time-based billing statement linking detailed records of hours worked on specific days with corresponding hourly rates to invoice clients for professional time.
Used by contractors, legal consultants, developers, and agency staff who bill clients on an hourly time-and-materials basis rather than a fixed project cost.

Practical Questions & Guidance
Can I bill partial hours or minutes (e.g. 1.5 hours)?
Yes. Decimal quantities (such as 2.5 or 0.75) are supported, and line totals compute automatically based on your hourly rate.
Why do corporate clients prefer timesheet invoices over lump-sum invoices?
Timesheet invoices provide transparency, allowing accounting departments to audit work performed against internal project timesheets before approving payment.
Can I add multiple workers or team members to a single timesheet invoice?
Yes. You can add separate line items for each team member, their individual roles, their distinct hourly rates, and their logged hours.
