Managing payroll timesheets: Submitting on behalf on an employee

Jimmy
Updated

Overview

Within your organisation, you may have employees who need to submit a timesheet that lists out what hours they worked and the breaks they took over their last working week. By utilising an online timesheet submission system, your employees can submit their hours 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 Submitting a Timesheet on Behalf of an Employee feature allows your organisation's payroll admins to submit a timesheet for any employee and specify details such as the start and end time of the shift and breaks taken, the work type it falls under and the location where they worked these hours. You can also use this feature to add an employee's standard hours, copy timesheets from the last fortnight, edit any information if it has changed, and delete an entry that is no longer required. 

Warning

Timesheets will only flow from the HR platform to your Payroll platform, i.e. this data connection is not bidirectional, and any timesheet submissions made in the Payroll platform will not flow through to your HR platform. We advise you to submit any timesheet via the HR platform's Timesheet feature.
