Use ClockShark timesheet approvals to lock down recorded time. Make sure time is recorded accurately by requiring timesheets to be approved.
Enable timesheet approvals
To enable timesheet approvals:
- Go to Admin > Company.
- Click Payroll and Overtime.
- Select a Pay Period.
- Click Save.
- Go to Timesheets.
- Select the Enable Timesheet Approvals checkbox.
- Click Save.
Approve a timesheet
You can approve timesheets from the Timesheet Day View, Week View, Pay Period View, and the Timesheet Approvals page.
To approve timesheets from the Approvals page, go to Time > Approvals. The table includes all timesheets for the current day, week or pay period. Use the drop-downs at the top of the table to change the day, week or pay period.
You can also filter the list by approval status, department, location and employee.
To approve individual timesheets, click the checkmark icon that appears next to the Status column. Alternatively, select the check boxes for multiple timesheets, then select Approve.
Time must be unapproved in order to edit. If you need to make edits to an approved day, unapprove that day, make the timesheet edit, and reapprove.
If you have timesheet approvals enabled, and you’re exporting time to one of ClockShark’s integration partners, you will receive an alert if any timesheets are not approved. Unapproved timesheets appear yellow and do not have the green Approved icon.
You can choose to ignore the warning and export them anyway.
