Timesheets Settings

You can access the timesheets setting through payroll setting and going to timesheets under business management.

You can then configure the below general options for timesheets:

• Require start/end times when entering timesheets: selecting this option means that employees can only create timesheets by entering start and finish times. If not selected, employees can choose between entering hours only or start/finish times when creating a timesheet. If the business has installed an award or using pay conditions, we strongly suggest this option be ticked to ensure timesheets are interpreted correctly.
• Require a work type when entering timesheets: this setting will be disabled if there are no work types set up in the business.
• Require a location when entering timesheets: this setting forces users to select a location.
• Include all timesheet notes in the pay run: any notes added by employees and admin users (that are set to visible) will appear in the earnings lines within the pay run. If the pay slip setting 'Show line notes' is selected, then the timesheet notes will also appear in the employee's pay slip.
• Notify employees when their timesheets are rejected: this will send an email notification to the employee upon a manager rejecting an employee's timesheet. 
• Managers can create timesheets for all employees that aren't enabled for timesheets; and
• Enable employees to select higher classifications: (Not applicable for OPC Pty Ltd.)
• Automatically approve a timesheet that is identical to the rostered shift: This setting will enable the system to automatically approve a timesheet that exactly matches a rostered shift. 
• Enable employees to include both paid and unpaid breaks in their timesheet (only relevant to timesheets with start/end times).
