Timecard Approvals at the Department Level

Timecard Approvals are a great option, once configured any combination you define of Employees, Supervisors, and Administrators can mark the appropriate timecards as approved, a digital timestamp will provide additional confirmation that all hours are accurate prior to submitting to payroll.

Notes:

• Supervisors can be configured with permissions to view and/or edit departments. Their responsibility can also be limited to certain departments.
• Department-level settings and rules are inherited from the employee's home department.
• Timecard approval requirements can also be configured at the user level.
