Approve Time

In Traqspera, approve individual entries from the Timesheet Summary, or mass approve all time entries from the employee's timesheet.

Your portal may be set up for per entry approval on the Timesheet Summary or mass approval from the employee timesheet. Both approval methods are described in the following steps.
  1. To approve individual entries from the Timesheet Summary:
    1. Select Time & Jobs > Timesheet Summary.

      You can also select the Timesheet Summary button from the top of the Timesheets page.

    2. Use the Filters on the left side of the page to filter for the entries that you want to review and approve.
    3. For each entry, confirm that there is a checkmark in the Complete column.

      If the checkmark is missing for an entry, reach out to the employee to confirm they have entered all of their time to date.

    4. To change an entry, add a new entry, or investigate the Timesheet Audit Trail, select the blue employee name in the Name field for a direct hyperlink to the employee's timesheet.
    5. To approve individual entries, select the Approved By column for each individual employee.
      • This adds a checkmark the Approved By column for those entries, along with the approver's name.

      • To undo an approval, select the Approved By column again to remove the approval checkmark.

    6. To approve all entries for an employee, select the Approve All [Employee’s] Entries button at the top of the employee's timesheet header.
      • This adds a checkmark the Approved By column for all entries for that employee, along with the approver's name.
        Note: You can hover your mouse over the approver's name to see a timestamp.
      • To undo an approval, select the checkmark in the Approved By column again to remove the approval checkmark for the applicable entries.

  2. If your portal is configured for mass timesheet approval instead of per entry approval, do the following:
    1. Select Time & Jobs > Timesheets.
    2. On the left side of the page, select the applicable Time Period.
    3. Open the relevant timesheet, and review the details.
    4. If the information looks correct, select the Approve button in the upper right of the page.
