Total your weekly timecard hours, overtime, and pay in decimal format for payroll.
A time card is a card with time clock stamps used to record the start and end times of an employee's work day. Employees enter their start time, end time, total hours worked, and overtime for that day into a time card template. Sometimes, time card templates include lunch breaks too. Each line of data is one time entry. Employees usually have 5 time entries per week, unless they work on weekends. In that case, their weekly time cards usually consist of 7 time entries. Employees can enter this data manually (in a Word document, Excel spreadsheet, or a printed time card template). Download time card / timesheet templates
Time card calculators give you a sum of your daily and weekly work hours. You could make your own time card calculator in Excel from a template, but you'd have to define your own formulas which could be time-consuming and might bring less accurate results. So, a better choice is to use an automatic time card calculator to speed up and streamline the process. This time card calculator works as an employee time clock app that helps you keep employee attendance records. In a way, it also works as an elapsed time calculator — it helps you calculate hours and minutes worked between two different points in time. Essentially, it's also a timesheet calculator with lunch break time included (usually 30 minutes). This lunch break time is automatically deducted from the work hours in the total calculation.
With a time card calculator, you get the option to set the records straight on your work hours. But, if you've never used a time card calculator before, you might not be aware of all the options that come with it. Let's go over a step-by-step process of using a time card calculator so that you can make the most out of it.
To total your weekly hours, enter start/end time (or select the time from the dropdown menu), enter the time you've spent on a break, and the calculator will automatically calculate the result. You can enter time in AM/PM format, or switch to a 24h format in Options. Quickly navigate from one field to another using the Tab button and move around with your Up and Down arrow keys.
You can enter how much time you've spent on a break, which will be deducted from your total hours. Alternatively, you can specify the exact time when your break started and ended.
Time card calculator can calculate your payroll based on your hourly rate. 
Simply enable the "Show pay" option, enter your hourly rate (and currency), and the calculator will calculate and show the payment info next to the total hours. 
The calculator can show you the number of overtime hours once you enable “Show overtime”. You can manually select the point when the calculator begins counting your work hours as overtime — after 8h/day, 40h/week, or custom. The calculator can even use a different hourly rate for overtime hours when calculating pay once you've enabled "Use overtime rate".
Once you're finished entering the data, you can print your time card and give it to your manager. You can also download your time card in CSV format (which can be opened in Excel) for your personal archive. To save the time card as PDF in Chrome: click Print, under "Destination" instead of your printer select "Save as PDF", and click Save.
You can enter your name in the top left corner of the calculator, select a different date, and — if you select the "Add note when printing" option — you'll be able to insert a custom note which will appear on paper/PDF. If you don't work over the weekend, you can switch to the 5-day workweek — and Saturday and Sunday won't be displayed.
If you want to access your time cards later, you can enter time in the Clockify timesheet. Learn more about: How to calculate payroll | Average hourly rates
