Log and submit my time
Record the hours you work and send them to your manager for approval.
Who this is for: employees recording the time they work.
Steps
- Open your timesheet and create a new time entry. Pick the client and, if it applies, the task you worked on. Set the entry date and how long you worked, and add an optional description. Time is treated as billable unless you mark it otherwise. The entry is saved as a draft.
- When the week's drafts are ready, submit them for approval. Their status changes from Draft to Submitted, and your firm's managers and owner are notified that your time is waiting for review.
- Wait for review. A manager or owner approves or rejects each submitted entry, and you are notified of the outcome.
What can go wrong
- A rejected entry comes back to you. If an entry is rejected, you are notified with a reason. You can edit that entry and submit it again; resubmitting sends it back for review as a clean submission.
- You cannot change a submitted or approved entry. Once an entry is Submitted or Approved, you can no longer edit or delete it. You can only delete entries that are still drafts.
- You can only submit your own time. You cannot submit entries that belong to someone else, and only drafts can be submitted.
Limits
- A single entry must be at least 1 minute and no more than 24 hours (1440 minutes) long.
- Every entry needs an entry date.
- If you set an hourly rate on an entry, it cannot be negative.
