Mobile Timesheets
Updated 3 months ago
Timesheet details can be entered by staff via the Mobile Timesheets web app.
How to send the timesheet web app link to staff
For a staff member to enter timesheet details on their mobile phone, they will click a unique link that you send to them via SMS. Once they have the link there is no need to send them the link again. They can either re-open the link from the original SMS or bookmark the link for future use.
- Firstly, you must ensure the staff member has a PIN/Password, as this will be required to access the timesheets web app.
From the main menu strip at the top, go to Setup > Staff, and click the staff member to edit. - Enter a PIN or Password in the PIN/Password field.
- Scroll towards the bottom then click 'Save Changes'.
- From the main menu strip at the top, go to HR > Calendar.
- Click the 'eye' icon button to the left of the Staff/Crew name.
- Click the 'SMS Agenda & Timesheet Entry link' button.
This will open the SMS screen, with the unique Timesheeet URL link in the message.
(Note: You can copy/paste the link to an email if you like, but sending via SMS is most convenient).
How to use the mobile timesheets web app
- Staff/Crew click on the URL link sent, which opens the app in their web browser.
- Staff/Crew enter their PIN/Password to proceed.
- Any jobs starting on the current day OR any jobs that do not have a Finish Date entered are shown.
- Staff/Crew click the red Timesheet Entry button to view and edit the timesheet entry details.
- Start Date, Finish Date, Break Minutes, and Notes can be entered, and staff/crew can sign at the bottom.
- Click Save when done.
- When saving, the staff/crew may be prompted to allow their geolocation. They must accept this, as a timesheet cannot be submitted without the geolocation coordinates.
Once the timesheet entry is completed (Finish Date populated), the completed timesheet details will appear in HR > Timesheets back in the main HirePOS v5 web app.
