How to use timesheets for employers and managers via payroll work

The Swag app now allows you to handle your employee's timesheet needs. You can accept or decline employee timesheets either separately or in groups, as well as adding any necessary remarks. You can also use the feature to adjust a timesheet submission if the information needs changing or you can remove an entry if it is no longer necessary.

Important

Contractor staff are only able to add a timesheet from Swag and the HR platform. They will not be able to add a timesheet from the payroll platform.

Please ensure that your contractor staff have Swag and/or HR platform access if they are required to submit timesheets. Please see this article for how to add timesheets on Swag as a contractor.
