How to Report Time for Students Extra Help

Last modified 7/24/2024

Things to Keep In Mind When Submitting Time

  • Timesheets are due at the end of pay periods to give managers time to review and approve reported time
    • Pay periods end on the 15th and last day of each month
  • You can make as many changes to your timesheet as necessary during the pay period
    • Please notify your manager if you make changes to time that has already been approved
    • Managers will need to re-approve the changed time
    • You have up to 2 calendar days past the end of the pay period to make any last-minute adjustments as an employee, then only managers can make changes
