If enabled by your ExakTime Administrator, supervisors can approve other employees' time cards with ExakTime Mobile at the supervisor level.
Internet Access and having hours on a time card are required to approve a time card from ExakTime Mobile. If you or an employee does not have mobile data/Wi-Fi or a blank time card, you cannot approve a time card from ExakTime Mobile.
Approve a Complete Time Card/Timesheet Only
You should only approve at the end of the pay period/work day or as instructed by your ExakTime administrator. Approving a time card prematurely can result in time records created after your approval not populating the time card. While the records are not lost, approving a time card prematurely can result in an incomplete time card and delay any of your company's policies/procedures.
- Press the ≡ button in the top left of ExakTime Mobile to show the menu and press Approvals.
- You will see a menu like the example below, where you can review the details of your own time card and the time card(s) of employees in your viewset. Approving your own time card will be the same steps as an employee.
- If an employee is not listed as expected, press the employee selector icon in the top right to review which employees are listed. If an employee is still not listed, try syncing ExakTime Mobile to ensure you have the latest information from ExakTime Connect.
- Before approving a time card, you can review the employee's time card for any issues. If there are any issues, such as incomplete time or a missing meal break, it will be labeled with "Time card has errors". You can press "Details" to review the time card. Depending on what permissions have been granted to you, you can make any necessary edits from the time card menu on ExakTime Mobile or ExakTime Connect.
- Beneath your own time card will be the employees in your viewset. If the employee had approved their time card, you should see an "Employee Approved" indicator with green text. Press Approve to approve the employee's time card. The "Approve" button will change to "Unapprove" if you need to unapprove the time card, and there will be a "Supervisor Approved" indicator with green text.
