What this sheet is for

Trace the hours on an invoice back to the hours on the floor, and see where the unpaid time in a week actually goes.

Who it is for

Workshop technicians, and the service manager or owner who reads the sheet on a Friday.

How to use it

  1. One sheet per technician per week; fill in the name and the week at the top.
  2. Clock on and off every time you start or stop on a job card, including rework.
  3. Write the allowed time beside the clocked time from your own times guide, if you use one.
  4. Mark idle, training and rework lines by type so they can be added up separately.
  5. Total the week at the bottom before it goes to whoever checks it.

What is on the sheet

One page, top to bottom:

Printed under the title: One technician's week, clocked job by job — what time went on which job card, what was not chargeable and why — so the hours on the invoice can be traced to the hours on the floor.

Your own rate, your own times. Labour rates and the time allowed for each operation are the workshop's own; write them in from your own rate card or times guide if you want them beside the clocked hours. This sheet only records what actually happened.

Questions

Why are there no labour rates or standard times on the sheet?

Because they are yours: your rate card, your times guide or your own estimate. The 'allowed' column is a blank for whatever figure you use, and the sheet only records what actually happened against it.
