Timesheet Approval
To approve timesheets in TeamBoard TimePlanner, a user must have the Timesheet Approver permission.
The Timesheet Approval feature in TimePlanner allows managers and designated approvers to review, approve, or reject timesheets submitted by employees. This ensures the time logged is accurate and aligned with project or organizational requirements.
How to Access Timesheet Approvals
From the left sidebar, go to the
Approval section. Select
Timesheet Request to open the Timesheet Requests page.
Timesheet Approval Workflow
Approval Status Overview
Timesheets are categorized into the following statuses:
Timesheets waiting for review.
Timesheets that have been accepted.
Timesheets that were declined and require adjustments.
Approving or Rejecting a Timesheet
On the Timesheet Requests page, select the date range and the member whose timesheet you want to review.
Locate the timesheet entry and click the expand icon to view its details.
Click Approve ✅ to accept the timesheet, or Reject ❌ to decline it.
(Optional) Add a note in the comments field to explain your decision.
Approving or Rejecting Multiple Timesheets
You can take bulk actions to speed up the process:
In the Timesheet Request List, check the boxes next to multiple timesheets. (You can select multiple timesheets simultaneously.)
Select Approve or Reject from the bulk action bar.
Click Apply.
Revoking Timesheet Approval
If an employee needs to update a previously approved timesheet, they can submit a recall request. Approvers will see the recall request in the Timesheet Request list.
To revoke the approval: Click
next to the entry > Confirm the action in the dialog box.
Once revoked, the timesheet status returns to Open, and the employee can resubmit after making changes.
