What is a line?
Different transactions require different file formats to upload. A line represents a row in a csv file that is imported to UpSheets and uploaded to Xero.
For example: if you have 50 lines in your file, you will be billed for 50 lines when you upload the file, even though this may create a combination of timesheets/leave/payslip adjustments on payroll (or tasks/time for projects).
Below are some examples to show each type of transaction in detail.
Payroll

How are Lines Billed?
At the end of each month, an invoice is generated using the Base and Usage component applicable to your subscription plan.
The Base component is fixed.
The Usage charge is variable and is calculated by multiplying the total lines uploaded in a period by the charge per line.
The invoice total will be:
Total = Base + Usage x Lines Uploaded
Example 1
Using the AUD-Basic plan:
- Base = $10/month
- Usage = $0.08/line
If you have 10 employees and your file has 25 lines per employee a total of 250 lines will be uploaded.
Your invoice would then be generated as follows:
Total = Base + Usage x Lines Uploaded
Total = $10 + $0.08 x 250
Total = $10 + $20
Total = $30
Example 2
Using the GBP-Standard plan:
- Base = £10/month
- Usage = £0.04/line
If you have 100 project tasks and 900 project time entries in your file, a total of 1000 lines will be uploaded.
Your invoice would then be generated as follows:
Total = Base + Usage x Lines Uploaded
Total = £10 + £0.04 x 1000
Total = £10 + £40
Total = £50
