Timekeeping Review and Approval
Procedures
- Check for any exceptions, which are problems that prevent time and labor from processing correctly, using the Managing Exceptions in Time & Labor toolkit
- High level exceptions may prevent accurate payment, so it is important that these exceptions are reviewed and corrected before the end of the pay cycle
- Review preliminary paylists on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of a payroll closing week
- Compare standard hours to the number of hours being paid
- Compare bi-weekly pay amount on paylist to amount being paid
- Compare leave reported to leave actually taken, retaining typical source documentation (Outlook Calendar Notices/Emails/Other) to identify leave taken
- Verify that holidays were reported for eligible employees during a pay cycle with a holiday using the correct time reporting code (TRC)
- Review hours by day for all employees (exempt and non-exempt). Pay special attention to terminations, hires, FTE changes, and job actions for work group changes for the applicable pay period
- Once time and leave are verified to be accurate, approve time and leave using the instructions in the Approving Time & Leave Toolkit
- By Friday morning at 10:00 am all time must be approved
- On Monday following the payroll closing, review the final paylist and document approval
