How to complete the template

Keep the original representation

Record export ID, service period and source row. Confirm whether the format uses seconds, minutes, HH:MM or decimal hours from the actual export specification or settings.

Convert with explicit precision

Retain original minutes and show the calculation into the destination unit. Note the number of decimal places accepted and any difference introduced by display rounding.

Reconcile the invoice quantities

Match reviewed quantities to approved work and rate references. Record any separately authorized billing transformation and compare the final preview with the source record.

Common pitfalls

Where teams usually lose momentum.

Avoid this

Reading decimal fractions as minutes

1.30 decimal hours is 78 minutes, not 90. Confirm the unit before assigning a quantity.

Avoid this

Dropping the exact source duration

One minute displays as 0.02 hours at two decimals. Keep the original minute count so a later reviewer can explain the difference.

FAQ

Questions people usually have before changing the workflow.

Does this approve a rounding increment?

No. It records conversion. Keep a separate agreement reference for any billing rounding operation.

Can I reconcile seconds?

Retain seconds in the source record and document your approved conversion. The companion calculator accepts whole-minute durations.

Does the same total prove the rows are correct?

No. Check work identity and each transformed row; offsetting errors can leave totals unchanged.
