The Attendance section is where you can review, edit, and approve your employees' timesheets.
To get started, click Attendance from the main menu.
You'll see two ways to view timesheets:
By pay period – View timesheets across a payroll period.
By day – View clockings for a specific day.
Viewing timesheets by day
The 'By day' view shows all employee clockings for a single day.
This is useful when you want to quickly check who has clocked in, review attendance, or approve entries for a particular date.
You can:
Approve all entries for the day at once.
Approve individual time entries one by one.
You can approve all by clicking here:
Or approve each time entry individually like so:
Viewing timesheets by pay period
The 'By pay period' view gives you a complete overview of employee hours for the selected pay period.
To change the pay period:
Click the currently selected date range.
Choose the pay period you'd like to view.
Reviewing employee timesheets
If you see coloured indicators next to an employee's name, it means their timesheet requires attention. This could mean:
Hours need approving
There are alerts to review
Changes may need to be made before payroll is processed
To view the full timesheet, simply click on the employee's name.
Approving a timesheet
Once you've reviewed a timesheet, you can approve it.
If no changes are needed, click 'Approve all' in the top-right corner to approve all outstanding entries at once.
Editing time entries
Need to make a correction? Simply click on the time entry you'd like to update.
From there, you can:
Add a time entry
Useful when an employee forgets to clock in or out and you need to add the missing hours manually.
Use scheduled hours
If you'd prefer to use the employee's scheduled shift instead of their clocked hours, select the 'Use scheduled hours' link.
Edit clock-in and clock-out times
You can adjust start and finish times by:
Selecting a time from the dropdown menu, or
Typing the time directly into the field.
Update breaks
You can also add, remove or adjust break durations as needed.
Tip: Click 'Log' to view the history of changes made to a time entry, including who made them and when.
How to tell if a timesheet has been approved
Once a timesheet has been approved, you'll see a tick in the top-left corner of the timesheet.
This lets you know it's ready for payroll processing.
Understanding alerts
You may notice alerts appearing on timesheets from time to time.
Some alerts are blocking, meaning they must be resolved before approval.
Others are non-blocking, meaning they're simply informational and can be reviewed or ignored if appropriate.
To understand the different alert types, see our guide here.
