Approve/Unapprove Time Card
Only a supervisor with approval authorization has the ability to approve an employee's Time Card Report or to Unapprove a time card that has previously been approved. Once a report is approved, secondary editors are no longer able to edit the report. Only the approving supervisor may make changes to an approved report.
Approving a Time Card Report
-
All time cards must be approved prior to starting the end of pay period processing.
-
Approving a time card should only take place once all data is present. Whenever new data is entered for an employee, whether from a badge reader or elsewhere, the approval status is overridden, and a new report is generated.
-
Only time cards for the current pay period can be approved. Time cards for the future or prior pay periods cannot.
-
A time card with any critical exceptions cannot be approved.
