NOTE: You also have the option to save a draft of your timecard if you are not ready to submit your hours by clicking SAVE DRAFT.

 

If you click SUBMIT and the page does not refresh with the message that the timecard was submitted successfully, please review the timecard to make sure you are not missing any required information, such as the work location.  There will be an error message at the top of the page if the required fields are not complete.

Step 10: Upon submitting your timecard, a window will open in which you can sign by holding the left mouse button if you are on a desktop computer or with your finger if you are using a mobile device.  Once you sign your timecard, it will become read-only for your employer.  If your employer notices any changes that need to be made, he/she will reject the timecard back to you with notes.

 

If you've made a mistake on your timecard, you can access your timecard again by clicking VIEW from the Timecards page and then click EDIT to make changes. This option is only available if your timecard has not yet been approved by your employer.
