The Approval Engine

Every minute tracked flows into a review queue. Managers can approve, reject, or reopen records, ensuring no unverified time ever hits your payroll export.

Submitted State

Hours are locked for staff once submitted.

Reject & Resubmit

Send incorrect timesheets back with correction notes.

Audit Trail

Full history of who approved what, and when.

Handle Missed Clocks

Identify "Active" shifts that never clocked out. Managers can manually close these records to generate valid timesheets for approval.

FORCE_CLOSE_ENABLED

Reopen Workflows

Mistakes happen after approval. Securely reopen locked records to make corrections without losing the original audit trail.

SECURE_REOPEN

Lock Approved Time

Approved records are protected from employee edits. Finalize your pay period with total confidence that numbers won't shift.

STATUS_LOCKED

Precision down to
the payable minute.

Approval isn't just a checkbox. Our model tracks every version of worked time—from raw timestamps to rounded rules and final payable minutes after break deductions.
