  1. Go to ConsoleAttendanceSettings and find Timesheets.

  2. Choose what Each timesheet covers: monthly, every two weeks or weekly. For monthly, choose the day The month closes on.
  3. Under Who approves timesheets, choose Line manager, then HR, HR only or No approval.
  4. Choose Who can reopen an approved timesheet, and select Save.

Good to Know

  • A change of period starts with the next period, never in the middle of one.
  • For fortnights, choose the Monday they count from.
  • With No approval, Each period locks itself a few days after it ends, giving managers time to fix missed punches.
  • Under If nobody approves, choose how long a timesheet waits before it moves up to the approver's manager, then HR.
  • On Enterprise, choose a Custom chain of up to five steps.

If Something Goes Wrong

  • You can't change these settings. They need HR, Owner or Admin, with a role that covers every site.
  • Timesheets already waiting kept the old approvers. A change applies to the timesheets still to come.
