Overview: If you want employees to be able to edit their time, or manually add punches, edits can be enabled with or without approval. This option can be set up per employee.


Enable/Disable Employee Edits

1. To enable/disable employee edits you'll want to start by going to Settings --> Account Settings:

2. You'll then want to check the box next to Allow Employees to Edit Their Time and Save once done.

3. You'll then want to click the Employee Permissions to Edit Time button to set permissions:

There are three permissions options available. They are as follows:

  • Not allowed to edit: If this option is chosen, employees are not allowed to edit their time at all.

  • Can edit but requires approval: This option allows employees to edit their time, but any edits will go to their Manager or Administrator for approval.

  • Can edit without approval: This option allows employees to edit their time as needed and they do not require approval for any changes.

In addition to setting the feature up on the Account Settings page, this feature can also be set up within each employee's profile. Just visit the employee's profile select "Edit" and make your selection from the dropdown box next to "Permission to Edit Time."
