From a timesheet to a pay run — without the double handling
Toolie captures crew hours on site (GPS clock-in and clock-out, or a quick manual entry with start, finish and breaks) and turns them into a pay run that respects the parts that trip builders up: time-and-a-half plus an alternative holiday for a public holiday worked, holiday pay, KiwiSaver and the current minimum-wage floor. It’s timesheets and payroll in one place, not two apps you reconcile by hand.
Timesheets that fill themselves in
- GPS clock-in/out on the phone, or one-tap manual entry with breaks
- Hours land against the job, so they flow into job cost and profitability
- Bulk-clock a whole crew on and off a site at once
- Clock-out attestation and locked timesheets for sign-off
A pay run that gets New Zealand right
- A public holiday worked pays time-and-a-half and flags the alternative holiday (day in lieu)
- Holiday pay, KiwiSaver and the current minimum-wage floor applied
- Allowances (tool, travel, meal) with the right taxable treatment
- Export a payroll CSV for your payroll provider — the hours don’t get re-keyed
Why hours-on-jobs matter
Hours logged against jobs are the difference between a gut-feel margin and knowing which jobs actually made money. Toolie ties the timesheet to the job, the invoice and the profitability view — payroll isn’t a dead-end spreadsheet.
On site, offline
Clock in with no signal — it syncs when you’re back in range, and an offline clock is stored once so a resync never double-counts it. See how it ties into invoicing and job management.

Common questions
Does Toolie do NZ payroll?
Toolie turns crew timesheets into a pay run that applies NZ rules - a public holiday worked at time-and-a-half plus an alternative holiday, holiday pay, KiwiSaver and the minimum-wage floor - and exports a payroll CSV. Confirm final PAYE with your payroll provider or Inland Revenue.
Can the crew clock in with GPS?
Yes - crew clock in and out on their phone with GPS, or you can enter start, finish and breaks manually. Hours land against the job so they flow into job cost and profitability.
Does it handle public holidays worked?
Yes - a public holiday worked is paid at time-and-a-half and Toolie flags the alternative holiday (day in lieu), in line with the Holidays Act.
Does it work offline on site?
Yes - crew can clock in with no signal; it syncs later, and an offline clock is stored once so a resync never double-counts the shift.
