Within your organisation, you may have employees who need to submit a timesheet that lists out what hours they have worked over their last working week. By utilising an online timesheet submission system, your employees can submit their hours worked wherever they are, be it in the office or the field, with this information sent through to their manager to review and approve on the spot.

The HR Manager Timesheet feature allows you to approve or decline employee timesheets either in bulk or individually, and also submit an entry for one of your employees. You can also use this feature to edit a timesheet entry and delete a record if it is no longer required. To use this timesheet type, you need to enable Daily Hours based on Weekly Entries. For details on how to enable this feature, refer to this article
