Field crews earn piece rate. Office staff still need an hours record.
A solar company usually runs two pay models at once: field crews paid by the job, and office or other hourly staff paid by the hour. Trying to force both through the same timesheet is where things get messy.
SolarProjeX keeps them separate. Office and hourly staff clock in and clock out, their hours roll up by week, and a manager reviews and locks the week into an office pay sheet — which lives right alongside the piece-rate tech sheets under Pay Sheet Tracking, but is never confused with them.
What it does, point by point
- A simple clock-in/clock-out for office and other hourly staff
- Hours roll up automatically by week, per person
- A manager reviews and locks the week before it becomes final
- Turns directly into an office pay sheet — no manual re-entry
- Kept separate from piece-rate field crew pay, never mixed together
- Turn it on per person — only the roles you actually pay hourly
