What happens if a timesheet has a conflict or error?

BetterDesks can flag conflict states such as schedule changes, assignment removal, missed clock-outs, site mismatch, or records that require review. Managers review and correct those records before approval.

Detailed answer

Timesheet conflicts are review signals. A linked schedule might have changed, an assignment might have been removed, a clock-out might be missing, or a record might otherwise need manager review.

Admins and schedulers can edit actual clock-in time, clock-out time, and break minutes on unapproved timesheets. They can reject a submitted record with a reason, approve a clean record, reopen an approved record, or close an active missed clock-out with an estimated time.

Conflict and review decisions are tracked with the timesheet so managers can see how the record was handled.

Example

A shift is changed after an employee has already created an attendance record. BetterDesks flags the linked timesheet with a schedule-change conflict. A scheduler reviews the record, corrects the actual times if needed, and approves it only after the hours are accurate.

How BetterDesks helps

BetterDesks keeps exceptions visible inside the approval workflow. Managers resolve issues before a timesheet is treated as payroll-ready.
