Set Up Employee Timesheets

Modified: 14 May 2026 Traqspera Time Entry Help

Enable your employees to enter time by editing their own timesheet for a specific day or week.

All employees must be able to access either Traqspera in a web browser or the Traqspera Timesheet app for Android or iOS to use this time entry method.
This approach is best suited for work environments that value flexibility and summary reporting. The alternative time entry method, clock-ins, is better for tracking precise, real-time start and stop punches. For more information, see Set Up Clock-Ins.

For instructions on editing user roles, see Edit a User Role.

  1. Configure these permissions for each role that needs to enter time.
    • On Settings & Permissions > Permissions > Timesheet > Timesheets, enable Create, Edit, and Delete
    • On Settings & Permissions > Permissions > Timesheet > Timesheets on Web, enable Create, Edit, and Delete
    • On Settings & Permissions > Permissions > Timesheet > Labor Entries on Timesheets, enable View, Create, Edit, and Delete
    • Enable Settings & Permissions > Permissions > Timesheet > Can Use Employee Timesheets
    • Enable Settings & Permissions > Permissions > Timesheet > View Timesheets Created By Others
      Note: Enabling this is optional. It allows employees to see their timesheet if someone else adds it for them or a time off request is approved for them.
    • Enable Settings & Permissions > Permissions > Timesheet > Can Copy From Past
      Note: Enabling this is optional. It allows employees to use the Copy From Past feature to copy entries up to a month in the past.
    • Enable Settings & Permissions > Permissions > Timesheet > Copy Whole Entry
  2. If your company enforces required start and end times, configure these additional permissions for each role that needs to enter time.
    Note: This configuration requires special break settings.
    • Enable Settings & Permissions > Permissions > Timesheet > Lock Hours on Timesheets
    • Enable Settings & Permissions > Permissions > Timesheet > Require Start/End Time
    • Enable Settings & Permissions > Permissions > Timesheet > View Start/End Times
    The hours field is locked for each role. They cannot edit their calculated time at all.
Employees with this role can create and view timesheets only for themselves. They can enter any hours they want.
