Feature: timesheets
Mechanic time tracking without the paper timesheet
Technicians clock on for the day and on and off each job from My Work with one tap. BayAutomate builds the timesheet, shows job time against quoted time, and lets the owner approve the week and export it to payroll as CSV. The same time feeds actual job cost at each technician's loaded labour rate.
Early access: BayAutomate is onboarding Australian workshops now. Anything marked Coming soon or Planned isn't available yet. Everything else is included on every plan.
Not included yet
Configurable paid and unpaid breaks and overtime rules for payroll are planned. Today, the export gives you approved hours to apply your own award rules.

Questions
Can technicians edit their own times?
Corrections go to the owner for approval, with the original time kept in the history.
