Once timesheet hours have been submitted by an employee, a timesheet approver can approve or decline it.

📎NOTE: You can't approve timesheets on the mobile app.

Employees with a dot on them indicate their timesheet status:

  • Green = Approved

  • Yellow = Submitted but not approved

  • No dot = Not submitted


Approve or decline a timesheet

📎NOTE: A timesheets group manager can only approve timesheets for employees in their timesheets group.

  1. On the main menu, click Timesheets.

  2. Click on an employee.

  3. Top right click Approve. If the employee has submitted for approval, you also have Decline as an option alongside.

  4. If required, select or clear Notify employee by email.

  5. Click Approve or Decline.

The employee's initials or photo has a green dot once the timesheet is approved.


Can I decline an approved timesheet?

Yes, even if it's been approved you can still decline the timesheet.


Can I make changes to an approved timesheet?

Yes, but the steps will vary depending on your timesheet permissions.
