Time Tracking
Software for
Accountants
Track all of your team members’ billable and non-billable hours with Buddy Punch’s privacy-first time-tracking software for accountants.
How Buddy Punch’s time-tracking app works
1. Clocking in and out
Employees clock in and out on their computers. When they clock in, they select the client they’re working on so you can easily track hours worked per client.
2. Viewing timesheets
Buddy Punch compiles all clock-in and out data into timesheets that you can view anytime on the admin dashboard. Hours and overtime are automatically calculated.
3. Running payroll
Use Buddy Punch as your payroll provider, or integrate our data with payroll providers like QuickBooks and ADP. Running payroll will be faster and more accurate than ever.
4. Invoicing clients
Export reports showing all employee time spent on specific clients. Reports are available in Excel, CSV, and PDF formats. Use that data to create accurate invoices quickly.
Time-tracking software your team will love
Privacy-first
Other time clocks make your team feel micromanaged by monitoring everything they do on their computers all day. Buddy Punch simply tracks the hours they worked.
Simple task-switching
When employees need to switch projects, they simply select the new project in Buddy Punch. Their timecards will show all of the projects they worked on over the course of the day.
Easy editing
If an employee forgets to switch projects, they can easily edit their own timecards to make sure they’re accurate. Admins or managers can review and approve those edits if needed.
Advanced features for knowledge workers
IP address locks
If team members are clocking in before they arrive at the office, set up IP address locks in Buddy Punch to prevent clocking in and out when employees aren’t in the office.
Simple invoicing
Create job codes for your different clients. Employees select a job code when clocking in, then you can see exactly how many hours were spent working on each client’s project.
PTO accruals
Set up rules for how employees accrue PTO. Buddy Punch will automatically calculate earned PTO for everyone. Employees can view their earned PTO at any time in the app.
Time-off tracking
Employees can request PTO using the Buddy Punch app. If the request is approved, those hours are automatically added to their time cards and deducted from their PTO balances.
Features to save you time and money
Overtime alerts
Get a notification when team members are nearing overtime to eliminate or reduce unexpected overtime costs.
Payroll integrations
Quickly send your timesheet data to QuickBooks, ADP, Gusto, Workday, Paychex, Paylocity, PayPlus, and more.
Reports
Create custom reports to meet the needs of your specific business. Download any report as a PDF, spreadsheet, or CSV file.

“The software is very user-friendly both for admins and employees. On the rare chance you need customer support, they are awesome and available!”
Katherine W.
Bookkeeper
“It’s really easy to use. We just have an iPad set up by our front door, and I printed out QR codes for all the employees. It works like a charm. The break rules are great, and the overtime accrual is amazing. We love it and would really recommend it!”
Sheena G.
Accountant
“The app is easy to use. Our older employees have no trouble learning how to use it. Love all the features that we have discovered.”
Sarah S.
Head Bookkeeper
“Even though I set specific pay periods, I can print reports with whatever date ranges I indicate. I find that very useful. I also like the ability to select different locations that employees can punch in/out of. We have multiple locations, and it is helpful to know where people are physically.”
Taylor B.
Bookkeeper
“I truly do like working with Buddy Punch. Any time I have an issue, its immediately fixed, and it seems like Buddy Punch is constantly taking customers’ issues and using those to fix the system overall. I have never dealt with a company before that has responded so efficiently to customers’ issues. I truly appreciate it!
Anne T.
VP of Finance
“Buddy Punch has made it easy for our practice since we expanded and now have staff in remote locations, including staff that work from home. It’s user-friendly and makes the supervisors’/managers’ jobs easy when it comes to approving timecards!”
