Available for the following Payroll plans: Essentials, Standard, Premium
Available for the following user access levels: Employee

If your organisation requires you to track daily hours, you'll need to submit timesheets. These allow your manager to review your hours against your contracted time for approval and payment. The Submit a Timesheet feature lets you enter shift start/end times, breaks, work type, and location. You can also add standard hours, copy timesheets from the last fortnight, edit details, or delete entries as needed.

Important

If you're unable to submit timesheets through the Payroll platform, contact your payroll administrator. One of the following may apply:

  1. Your payroll admin needs to enable your employee portal access.
  2. Your organisation manages timesheets in the HR platform, not the Payroll platform.
