Checklists

My Leave balance(s) are incorrect in TimeSaver?

The actual employee leave balances will be uploaded after June 25, 2007. Because there was going to be a delay on bringing the balances over, we defaulted the population with 40 hours each and will adjust with correct balances before this first pay period is closed.

I have to enter Leave time starting next week...how do I do this?

TimeSaver gives you the flexibility to populate the current Pay Period timecard at the beginning. You can enter a "New Entry" and select the corresponding date from the "entry date" field.

I made an entry and then deleted. When I try to add it back and the system says "Error: You already punched at 08:30 AM."

We recommend that you do not delete punches but instead edit them and correct them once entered to either change the amount of hours for a paycode, change start or stop times, or change the date for which it was reported to. This version of TimeSaver has a limitation on deleting entries. If you did delete a punch there are two ways to correct it:

A) You can have your "TimeKeeper" rollback the transaction under the Audit button on the timecard. The TimeKeeper once in the employee's timecard click "Audit"

Then click on "Rollback" Action as indicated below.

When the application prompts you for Confirmation of Rollback select "Rollback" as indicated below.

At this point in time the Employee will have the punch entries back into the timecard and they can then edit time entry and change the start and/or stop time, date, or department.

Or B) If the punch you entered and deleted was at "08:30a" you can put "08:31a" and the application will still calculate the same number of worked hours since it rounds to the quarter of an hour.

I do not have a drop down menu for the secondary department I work for.

In an effort to reduce the number of usernames for TimeSaver we are in the process of adding the additional hourly positions to the 8FL jobs. This was completed today and should be reflected later this week when TimeSaver is updated with the changes. There are few employees that will continue to have both 8FL and 8SY usernames. We are contacting them directly to advice.
