FAQs
Can I submit timesheets in advance?
It's possible to pre-populate weeks in advance (through 2024) and save the updates. However, you will not be able to submit timesheets until the date has passed so please log in and click 'Submit'.
Do I need to add time off (holiday, sick days, etc.) to the timesheet?
Yes, please manually add any time off to the timesheet. Time off is not automatically pulled from the 'Time Off' tab. This is an improvement we will be making as soon as possible.
How do I edit a submitted timesheet?
Submitted timesheets can only be edited is your line manager requests an amendment to be made. Please reach out to your line manager to ask them to request a change to your timesheet via the OmniPlatform.
