How do I edit hours on a timesheet?

Click the hours in the timesheet list, type the new time and press Enter. You can also edit many timesheets at once, or open a timesheet to change all its details.

Before you start​

  • You can only change timesheets that are Pending, Time Verified or Unapproved.
  • Approved timesheets show a lock icon. Unapprove them first. See How do I unapprove a timesheet?
  • Only people allowed to approve payments can change Payable Hrs.

Steps in the list view​

  1. In the left menu, under Field Operations, click Timesheets.
  2. Click the number in the Total Hrs, Break Hrs or Payable Hrs column. A pen icon shows which cells you can change.
  3. Type the new time as hours and minutes, for example 07:30.
  4. Press Enter or click the tick to save. Click the cross to cancel.

Steps in the weekly view​

  1. Double-click the hours for a day.
  2. Type the new time and press Enter. Press Esc to cancel.
  3. To change payable hours, click the green payable number instead.

Edit many timesheets at once​

  1. Tick the box at the start of each row. Tick the box in the header to pick every row on the page.
  2. In the bar at the bottom of the screen, click Edit Total Hours or Edit Payable Hours.
  3. Type the time as HH:MM and click Update.

Change all the details of one timesheet​

  1. In the list view, click the row, or click ... at the end of the row and choose Edit.
  2. In the Update Timesheet panel, change the Project, Checkin Date and Time, Checkout Date and Time, Break time, Pay Item or Budget.
  3. Click Update. You will see Timesheet has been updated successfully.

Good to know​

  • Hours in the panel is worked out for you from the check-in, check-out and break times.
  • Merged hours can't be changed directly in the weekly view. Hover over the day, click View All, then change the single timesheet in the Merged Timesheets window.
  • The History tab in the panel lists every change made to the timesheet.

If something goes wrong​

  • Invalid Time! – use hours and minutes, such as 07:30. Minutes must be 59 or less.
  • Please enter a valid time (HH:MM) – in a bulk edit window, type two numbers for hours, a colon, and two numbers for minutes.
  • Duration must be at least 15 minutes – the check-in and check-out times are too close together.
  • No pen icon, or a lock icon – the timesheet is approved or in a status that can't be changed.
