We realized that you may want to take advantage of the invoicing features in WeWorked for more than timesheet data. You may want to draft an invoice for something totally independent of time. Well now you can. Before today you had to pull timesheet data to generate an invoice. You can now create blank invoices. In the invoice section, click New Invoice. You will then have the option to create either a blank invoice or an invoice from timesheet data.

For our customers that need to print timesheets regularly for the purpose of sharing with a client, we now give you the option of what to show them. Your clients may not need or want to see any leave information on your timesheets. And you may not want them to see your teams’ comments. Starting today, you can decide to hide comments, leave tasks, or both from a timesheet printout. It is really easy to do.
While viewing a timesheet, click Print then check which items you wish to hide from the printer-friendly version of the timesheet.
Today we made it easier for you to administer your WeWorked account. No more having to log into PayPal to see what plan you signed up for. We added a central area we call the Account Center that is only accessible to administrators. In the Account Center you will find information about your plan, including the name, price, next billing date, and number of users.
Administrators will notice two new links in the upper right corner of the screen:
- Account – takes you to the Account Center
- Upgrades – takes you to an overview of our plan upgrades. And, yes, we now offer plans up to 500 users.
Changing your plan
New customers will no longer be able to upgrade using a PayPal account. Existing subscriptions are not impacted and do not require a change. Everything will just keep on working as before. However, future changes to accounts will be processed securely within WeWorked. No need to maintain a PayPal account. Upgrading and downgrading is all done with a few clicks. You can even change your monthly subscription to an annual subscription with a few clicks.
There is also no need to email us should you wish to cancel your account. Administrators can cancel an account from within the Account Center. Canceling is just as easy as upgrading.

Payroll Report: Paychex, ADP, etc.
We just made it really simple to use the hours in WeWorked to process payroll. If you outsource payroll to Paychex, ADP, or any other popular payroll company, you can now create a report that speeds up the entire process. Today we are introducing the “Payroll Hours” report. The “Payroll Hours” report summarizes the total hours worked and leave hours used during a specific period. Most payroll companies will except the results of the report by email and fax.
We also added a new field called “Internal ID” to each users profile. “Internal ID” is used to capture a unique identifier that you may use internally or with your payroll processor to identify people. If you do not have your own employee numbering system, feel free to use the unique ID that WeWorked generates for each user. The WeWorked identifier can be found under each users profile and is labeled “User ID”.
Payroll only wants the total hours worked and the amount of leave used. The “Payroll Hours” report enables you to generate that information with a few mouse clicks. You can then fax or email the report to your payroll specialist for processing.

Advanced Report Permissions
You now have more control over reports and who can access reports. Now you can grant users and groups access to individual reports. You can also control the data that individual users see when viewing reports. Let’s take a deeper look at these new features.
How did it work?
Previously administrators could control only whether or not groups and users could access reports. If you granted them access then the users and groups would have access to all reports and all data.
What changed?
Now you can control which reports users and groups can access. Every company has access to at least two reports. Some have access to more because we created custom reports for them. None of your permissions have changed. If you granted a user or group access to reports, they still have access to the same reports.
We added another layer of permissions to each user profile that controls the data a user can view when running a report. Under the Permissions section of each user’s profile, an administrator can decide to grant a user full rights to all report data or to limit a user’s rights to only the people whose timesheet the user can approve. Users with limited report access will have a tiny lock icon beside their name in the report permission area. If a user does not approve time, they are only allowed to create reports containing their own data.
Things you can do – the possibilities.
- Allow users access to run individual reports.
- Allow users to run reports on their own data.
- Allow managers to run reports on their team/group.
- Allow Human Resources people to run reports without being an administrator.

Copy Timesheets

Today we are introducing the Copy Timesheet feature that allows you to, with the click of a button, copy tasks or tasks and hours from a timesheet to the upcoming week. This is great for teams that work on a lot of projects and tasks. Now you do not have to add all of those tasks each week. We are really excited about this enhancement and hope you enjoy it.
