Approve your first timesheets

Every time someone clocks in and out, their hours land on the Timesheets page. Before those hours count toward pay, you give them a quick check and approve them. Here's how to work through your first week.

1. 1

   Open Timesheets

   Select Timesheets in the sidebar. You land on the Records tab, with summary cards for Scheduled, Actual, Employees and either Total Cost or Issues across the top.

2. 2

   Clear any flagged clock-outs first

   If a shift needs a second look — a forgotten clock-out that Atteny closed automatically, a failed location check, or an unusually long shift — it appears at the very top in a Pending Checkout Verifications card. Select Edit to correct the clock-out time, or Approve to accept it as it is.

3. 3

   Pick the week you want to review

   Use the Daily / Weekly / Monthly toggle and the arrow buttons to move to the right period. To focus on one person, open the All Employees dropdown and pick their name.

4. 4

   Review each record

   Each row shows the clock in, clock out and break, then Expected hours against Actual hours, the +/− variance, and any Flags (late start, missed break, overtime, and so on). Anything unusual is called out so you don't have to hunt for it.

   

5. 5

   Approve the hours

   Select Approve on a row to sign it off — you can add an optional note. If something's wrong, select Reject and give a short reason instead. Either way, the employee is notified of the result.

What's next

Once a week is approved, those hours are ready to feed into reports and payroll.

• Watch the floor live. Switch to the Who's in tab (next to Records at the top of the page) to see who is currently clocked in, in real time.
• Pull the numbers. When you're ready to hand hours to your accountant, head to Reports to export a clean summary.
