For customers of our Timesheets module.

The timesheets feature within Built can be configured to work according to your organization's needs.

Built will help you keep track of any timesheets that should have been submitted but haven't. To do this for you, the system needs to know the date on which you want Built to track timesheet submissions. 

Starting from the date you enter in this field, Built will keep track of whether or not each person has submitted their timesheet as expected. Any timesheets that have not been submitted by people after this date will be considered "missing" by the system. For people whose hire date is later than the start date, the system will only consider their timesheets missing after their hire date. 

Note: For all people, the weekly timesheet will always start on a Sunday. Built does not currently support the ability to customize a different start day for the week.

This setting allows you to determine whether timesheets are approved by the account administrators or by the person's direct manager. 

The system supports manual or time-clock timesheet data entry. To learn more, refer to: Tracking Time: Manual vs Time-Clock.

Note: This setting only applies to the Clock In/Out entry method.

By default, people cannot edit their own time clock entries. This prevents an individual from modifying their clock-in/out to make it look as though they showed up and left work on time. Most companies will prefer to leave this setting set to No.

If you do allow people to edit their time clock entries, you may change this setting to Yes. Note that this means an employee can simply type in whatever start/end time they want, whether or not they actually clocked in/out at those times. 

An admin can always edit time clock entries for all employees.

Note: This setting only applies to the Manual entry method.

If work hours don't vary much across your organization, you can save people's time by choosing to have the system pre-populate the Hours Worked field on their timesheets. 

The system will use each person's assigned schedule to accurately populate the timesheet. The individual can then review the timesheet each week, make any necessary adjustments, and submit it for approval.

Note: This setting is only applicable to manual timesheet entry. This setting will disappear if you choose to use the clock in/out method.
​

Because each person in Built has an assigned work schedule, the system can compare a person's hours on their timesheet with those of their schedule. With this comparison complete, the system can display any over/under for each day and for the week as a whole.

With this setting, you can choose whether or not you want people to be able to see this over/under calculation on their timesheet. 

Use this setting to schedule a weekly timesheet reminder for all individuals who have the timesheet feature/tab enabled. You can choose the weekday and the time at which you want the reminder email sent.
