Sample rows. Column names exactly as Daybill writes them. One row per employee for the period, matched by email. Approved hours go in as regular hours, with overtime only where Daybill saved it as overtime; pay rates stay in Gusto.

Four steps

Step 1

  1. Step 1: Approve the pay period

    Review and approve the crew’s timesheets. The export aggregates only approved hours, one row per employee for the period.

  2. Step 2: Run the pre-export check

    Choose Gusto in the payroll export. Daybill flags any member without an email because Gusto matches employees by email.

  3. Step 3: Download the Smart Import CSV

    The file already follows Gusto’s Smart Import format. Hours are totalled per employee; pay rates remain in Gusto.

  4. Step 4: Import inside Gusto

    In Gusto, open Pay → Run payroll → Import hours and upload the file. Gusto matches each row by email.

Review payroll before the handoff.

The payroll workspace gathers the approved period and pre-export checks. Daybill then prepares the Smart Import CSV for upload in Gusto.

The Daybill payroll workspace stays the source of record; Gusto receives the downloaded CSV.
