Definition — What is Timesheet? 

Timesheet is a time management tool to record the amount of time a user or member of an organization has spent at work, on a particular task or project or activity. This information could be recorded on paper, a spreadsheet, or in software.  
 

The implementation of timesheets may vary based on business need, both time tracker (timesheet) and attendance tracker may sound similar, it doesn't mean they both are the same in function. An attendance tool simply tracks whether the user is present or not at work. Timesheets can hold useful bits of information for business intelligence, by counting the exact hours spent on tasks or projects, with this data the organization can calculate, user engagement rate and can decide whether additional resources are required or not. Timesheets can show the actual progress of the project.
