Manual: Approving Time Entries ✅

 

Objective: Review and authorize time sheets submitted by your direct reports to ensure accuracy before payroll processing.

Prerequisites: You must have a Manager security role over the employee submitting time.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  1. Access Your Inbox:

    • Click the My Tasks (inbox) icon on the top right of your Workday Home page.

    • Locate and select the task labeled Time Entry: [Worker Name].

  2. Review the Entry:

    • Look at the "Entries to Approve" table to see the specific dates and hours entered.

    • Verify Project Time: If the "Time Type" is Project Plan Tasks, ensure the employee has selected the correct Project and Phase.

    • Check Comments: For project time, verify that the employee has entered a description in the Time Block Comment column. This is required for project tracking.

  3. Take Action:

    • Approve: If all details (hours, project coding, comments) are correct, click the Approve button to finalize the time sheet.

    • Send Back: If there is an error (e.g., missing comments, wrong hours), click Send Back. You will be required to enter a reason. This routes the task back to the employee to correct and resubmit.

    • Deny: Click this only if necessary. This completely stops the business process. The employee cannot correct it; they must start over from scratch.
