Once the employee has completed the task and/or timesheet, you can manage the approval through the Inbox menu. Here are the steps to manage Task and Timesheet approval.

  1. Go to the “Inbox” menu.
  2. Click “Tasks” then select one of the employee task completion requests.

    You can approve or reject the Approval list one by one or all at once. Check the Approval list that you will process, then click the “Approve All Checked” button to approve or click the “Reject All Checked” button to reject.

  3. Then, you will be directed to the request details page. You can see to check the suitability of the task information, such as Task ID, Task name, Description, Due date, Project, Time tracked, Total fee, Attachment, and Expected payment date (optional). Then, you can click “Approve” to accept or “Reject” to reject the request.

    - You can add information about the reason for accepting or rejecting the request in the Notes column.
    - The Expected payment date column suggests that the leader/approver can suggest a payment date to HR payroll for the task.
    If the approval layer is >1, then the data that will be stored is the last filled expected payment date data.

That's the guide to managing tasks & timesheets. Next, you can learn about how to manage tasks for payroll groups, here.
