Timesheets & Pay
Event staff timesheet software that takes the chasing out of payday
After the event, you still have hours to check, expenses to approve and pay to get right. Liveforce turns event staff timesheets into payroll-ready reports, without the manual work.
The Timesheet problem
Payday shouldn't take all week
Timesheets are a part of event work that everyone puts off. The event went well. Now a week of shifts has to become correct pay, on time. Doing that in spreadsheets and generic staff timesheet software is where the admin piles up, and mistakes creep in.
Timesheets you have to chase
Crew forget to submit or jot down hours on paper. You spend the week after an event collecting numbers instead of planning the next one.
Hours that need checking by hand
Check-in, check-out, a break, a shift that ran late. Every timesheet needs a look, and the maths adds up fast.
Expenses on crumpled receipts
A photo here, a receipt in a pocket there. Collecting expense claims after an event is a job no one wants.
Payroll means retyping everything
Hours sit in one system and payroll in another. You copy figures across each month and hope none of them slips.
Disputes with nothing to check
A crew member says they finished later than you logged. With no check-in record, it’s your word against theirs.
Self-employed invoices never match
Freelance crew send invoices that don’t line up with the shifts they worked. You check each one by hand before the accounts see it.
The solution
From shift to pay, without the busywork
Timesheets & approvals
-
Approve timesheets automatically using scheduled hours, or switch to check-in/out times, tracking staff hours across every event down to the nearest 5 or 10 minutes.
-
Set custom overtime rules, so extra hours are calculated the way your business pays them.
-
Review and adjust individual timesheets, or make bulk changes across a whole job in one go.
-
Every check-in, check-out, and edit sits in an audit trail, so disputes are quick to resolve, not a case of he-said-she-said.
Payroll exports
-
With Liveforce as your event staff payroll software, export payroll-ready reports fully customised to match your existing payroll system.
-
Run reports by project, date range, or manager, so you can pay for one job without untangling the rest.
-
Choose from report types built for how you pay: employed, self-employed, expenses, and new starters.
Expenses
-
Crew submit expense claims straight from the app. A photo of the receipt is all it takes.
-
Approve or decline each claim from the same place you review timesheets.
-
Crew can track the status of their claim in the app, so they're not left chasing you for updates.
-
Bulk download all approved receipts in one go, ready for your accounts team.
Invoicing
Crew invoicing without the chasing
Freelance crew add an extra step to payday: requesting invoices, checking they match, then filing them for accounts. Liveforce closes that loop automatically, so invoicing is one less thing on your list.
Requested automatically
Once a payment report is generated, self-employed crew are automatically prompted to submit their invoice, no chasing required.
Generated in the app, already correct
Crew can generate their invoice straight from the Crew App, built from their own signed-off shifts, so it’s automatically approved, no manual checking needed. If they’d rather submit their own, it’s checked side by side against the approved timesheet instead.
One batch download
Once everything’s approved, download every invoice together in one go, ready for your accounts team.
