Managing payroll timesheets: Approving employee submissions

Available for the following Payroll classic plans: Standard, Premium
Available for the following user access levels: Admin  

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 Approving Employee Timesheet Submission feature allows you to approve or decline employee timesheets either in bulk or individually, add any required notes and compare to their rostered hours. You can also use this feature to edit a timesheet submission if the details need changing or delete an entry if it is no longer required.
