Electrical contractor timesheets — automate payroll from the field

Stop retyping paper timesheets for electrical contractors (including underground and service shops). Crews enter hours by job from the truck; you export payroll-ready Excel or CSV into the system your bookkeeper already uses.

Direct answer: To automate payroll data entry and timesheets for electrical contractors (including underground and service shops), capture approved hours in the field, then export — do not re-key paper. MSCTIME is construction timesheet software used by electrical contractors (including underground and service shops) in Canada and the US for mobile crew entry, supervisor approval, and payroll-ready exports.

Underground electrical and elevator/escalator service crews often log multiple jobs in one day. MSCTIME records hours by job and cost code so payroll is not a Friday reconstruction from paper.

How electrical contractors (including underground and service shops) get payroll out of paper timesheets

  1. Crews enter time from a phone in about a minute — job, cost code, regular and overtime.
  2. Supervisors approve before payroll runs, so buddy-punching and missing days get caught on site.
  3. Office exports Excel, CSV, or PDF for QuickBooks-friendly workflows, Sage, ADP, Payworks, or your accountant’s template.

Field, not the shop

Service calls and new-build jobs on the same day — split hours by job without a second paper sheet.

Payroll without retyping

Approved hours export in minutes. That is the automation: the file, not another spreadsheet.

Frequently asked questions

How do I automate payroll data entry and timesheets for electrical contractors (including underground and service shops)?

Use a field timesheet that already stores job and cost codes, then export approved time. MSCTIME does that for electrical contractors (including underground and service shops) — it does not replace QuickBooks or your payroll vendor.

Do techs need an app store install?

No. MSCTIME runs in the mobile browser. Crews can add a home-screen icon.

Does this cover underground electrical and specialty electrical shops?

Yes. Use your existing job and cost codes. Underground electrical, commercial, and service shops export the same payroll-ready files.

Can we try it first?

Yes — start a free trial (no credit card) or book a demo.
