Overview
Timesheet approval helps keep track of which user’s timesheets have been checked for accuracy before closing out the pay period.
Timesheet approval can be particularly useful for workplaces where supervisors are required to review specific timesheets before the pay period is closed out and exported.
Considerations
- You must have admin, manager, or supervisor level access to approve timesheets.
- Approving timesheets is an optional step in preparing your pay period hours.
- Users can still clock in and out for shifts when their timesheet is approved.
- A timesheet becomes unapproved when an edit is made to it.
