# Understand overtime in timesheets

If your store uses [Easyteam Payroll](/en/article/easyteam-payroll-run-payroll-in-minutes-directly-in-shopify-pos-dhjw5e/), then Easyteam can show overtime hours and overtime pay directly in time tracking views and exports.

The overtime amounts shown in **Timesheets** are estimates. The final overtime amount is calculated during the payroll run and can change based on each employee's jurisdiction, tax information, overtime eligibility, and employment type.

## When overtime appears

Overtime appears only for stores that activate Easyteam Payroll.

![Overtime in timesheets](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/9/3/1/4/931439f481791800/image_18ycs9x.png)

Common prerequisites include:

* [Easyteam Payroll](/en/article/easyteam-payroll-run-payroll-in-minutes-directly-in-shopify-pos-dhjw5e/) is enabled for the store
* the payroll provider supports overtime preview data
* the worker is already onboarded in Easyteam Payroll

| If Easyteam Payroll isn't enabled for the store, then overtime columns and overtime summary sections don't appear.

## Where overtime shows up

Overtime data appears in three places:

* **All staff overview** — an **Overtime** column shows the estimated overtime amount and hours for each staff member (for example, `$50 (02:00)`). The **Total** row follows the same format.
* **Individual staff timesheet** — a separate overtime summary row appears above the **Total** row, showing overtime hours and pay separately from regular worked time.
* **Exports** — multi-staff exports include **Overtime hours** and **Overtime amount** columns. Single-staff exports include a separate overtime summary section after the time card rows. For more information, refer to [Export time tracking and time card data](/en/article/export-time-tracking-and-time-card-data-116z5f6/).

| Overtime is always shown as a summary for the selected date range. It is not broken out on each individual time card row. Changing the date range updates the overtime values.

## Troubleshoot overtime visibility

#### Overtime isn't showing

Check whether:

* Easyteam Payroll is enabled for the store
* the worker is onboarded in Easyteam Payroll
* the selected date range includes overtime

#### Overtime doesn't appear inside each time card row

This is expected. Overtime is shown as a date-range summary, not as a per-record calculation on each row.
