How to Sync Timesheets and PTO
from Timeero to BambooHR

Field team time tracking that goes beyond BambooHR.

BambooHR's time tracking works for desk-based teams. For field teams β€” people on job sites, in clients' homes, or moving between locations β€” you need more.

TTimeero adds GPS-verified clock-ins, geofenced job sites, automatic clock-in/out by location, and automatic mileage tracking. Once you connect the two, timesheets sync directly into BambooHR and PTO records stay consistent across both systems, no double entry.

πŸ”— How to set up the Timeero–BambooHR integration

  1. 1
    Go to Company Settings β†’ Integration Settings
    Click the edit icon next to BambooHR. This is where you enable the integration, choose your sync type, and select which employee groups are included.
  2. 2
    Map employees, projects, tasks, and time-off categories
    Match BambooHR employees to their Timeero counterparts, BambooHR Projects to Timeero Jobs, Tasks to Tasks, and Time Off Categories to the matching categories in Timeero. Proper mapping is what makes exports work β€” do this before anything else.
  3. 3
    Choose Automatic or Manual sync
    Automatic Sync exports timesheets to BambooHR as soon as an employee clocks out β€” no admin action required. Manual Sync lets you approve timesheets first, then export them when you're ready. Either way, the same validation rules apply: mismatched project or task assignments won't export.
  4. 4
    Employees select the right job when they clock in
    When someone clocks in, they pick the Job that corresponds to their BambooHR Project. If that project has tasks, they pick one too. That selection determines where the timesheet ends up in BambooHR.
  5. 5
    Find exported timesheets in the employee's BambooHR profile
    In BambooHR, go to People, open the employee's profile, and select Timesheets. Every synced clock-in and clock-out entry is there β€” project, task, and timestamp included.
  6. 6
    PTO records sync the same way
    Time-off categories mapped in Timeero transfer to BambooHR too. Open the employee's Time Off tab to see PTO entries β€” same records, both systems, without touching a spreadsheet.
⚠️ Timesheets that don't meet the project and task requirements won't export β€” regardless of whether you're using Automatic or Manual Sync. If a timesheet is missing from BambooHR, check that the employee is mapped, the Job matches the BambooHR Project, and the correct task was selected at clock-in.

Time tracking built for teams that aren't at a desk.

Know exactly where your team clocked in, how many miles they drove, and that the hours are right, without chasing down a single timesheet.
