Time & Attendance Software

Best Time & Attendance Software for QuickBooks

Time tracking for QuickBooks matters to small and midsize employers who keep their books, and often their payroll, in QuickBooks. The point is to move approved hours into QuickBooks without retyping them, coded so that job costs and payroll come out right, and to know whether your edition, Online or Desktop, is supported.

How the score works

What matters for QuickBooks

  1. Native hours sync

    A direct sync of approved timesheets removes re-keying, the most common source of payroll errors in small teams.

  2. QuickBooks edition support

    Some tools connect only to QuickBooks Online; if you run QuickBooks Desktop, confirm it is listed before you buy.

  3. Customer, job and class mapping

    Job costing and client billing depend on hours arriving with the same codes your books use.

  4. Payroll compatibility

    Check whether hours flow into QuickBooks Payroll directly or only into the accounting file, and who fixes a failed sync.

  5. Mobile clock-in with location

    Field and hourly crews clock in from phones, and GPS or geofencing keeps the hours you send to QuickBooks accurate.
