  1. Time Traq Tarleton State University

  2. OVERVIEW • Web-based: • Created by TAMU Business Computing Services Group (BCS) • On-line timesheets can be completed from anywhere with a computer • Support Screen allows you to email support staff questions • Help Screen is available at the “?” button

  3. 1st It is my assumption that you currently have a system in place to verify the validity and accuracy of time reported to payroll. 2nd It is my expectation that you will continue to maintain a system that verifies the validity and accuracy of time reported. Processes

  4. Access Time Traq through SSO

  5. Roles • Employee • Manager • Department Approver • Departmental Admin • Central Administrator • Payroll Administrator

  6. Payroll Process Overview • Employee fills out on-line timesheet & submits to Manager • Manager or Dept Admin (usually Dept Approver) allocates accounts • Manager approves or rejects the timesheet • Dept. Approver reviews & submits timesheets for the entire adloc to Payroll

  7. The Employee

  8. The Employee From the employee's perspective, TimeTraq is a simple application.  

  9. Employee’s Role • Access TimeTraq thru SSO • Enter hours worked on a daily, weekly, biweekly period • Submit to Manager

  10. Getting Started • Log in to SSO and select the TimeTraq link • TimeTraq will display the Employee Timesheets screen on startup • TimeTraq automatically creates timesheets for employees • Employees with multiple jobs can work with timesheets from either job • Select a timesheet by clicking the gray select button or its ID number • Each TimeTraq timesheet is assigned a unique ID; refer to this number if you need help with a timesheet.

  11. Time sheet screen

  12. Entering Time • Employees normally only have to enter the Regular Work hours • Select the correct work week by clicking on the tab with the date range you want to enter • Enter your regular work hours each day • Click the green Save button to save your changes. Select the next work week and enter that week’s time • When you’ve entered all of your time and want to exit this screen, click the Save/Exit button • If ready to submit, click Submit Timesheet button

  13. TIMESHEET ENTRY

  14. Submitting a Timesheet • “Sign” your timesheet by certifying that the time entered is true and correct (this is done by checking the box at the bottom of the screen) • Press the Submit Timesheet button to send the timesheet to your manager • TimeTraq will display the Timesheet Review screen showing that your timesheet was submitted

  15. The Manager

  16. Manager • In TimeTraq, the manager's primary responsibilities are to: • Ensure that their employees submit true and accurate Timesheets in a timely manner; and, • Approve submitted Timesheets as quickly as possible. • In TimeTraq, documents that require a manager's approval show up in his/her Manager Inbox screen.   • Managers can configure their own Preferences so that he/she receives an email when Timesheets need to be approved.

  17. Setting Preferences

  18. Manager (con’t) • Set up a delegate to approve timesheets in your absence • To add a delegate, search by last name or enter the other manager’s UIN, then click the green Add Delegate button • To suspend another manager’s ability to act as your delegate, click the red Deactivate button. To re-activate a manager’s delegate authority, click the blue Reactivate button

  19. Delegates (a must)

  20. Manager • Managers work primarily with the Manager Inbox and Timesheet Overview screens.  Managers can return a timesheet to an employee for correction. • If a Timesheet needs further review, it can be selected from the inbox and displayed on the Timesheet Overview screen.  This screen displays detailed information about the Timesheet, including hours worked by day adjustments, approvals, etc.

  21. Manager • If an employee has not completed his/her timesheet and are not reachable, the manager has 2 options: • Complete the timesheet for the employee • Cancel the timesheet • If an employee didn’t work any hours during that pay period the manager must cancel the timesheet • A MANAGER CAN NOT ALLOW ONE TIMESHEET TO HOLD UP PAYROLL

  22. Timesheet Overview Screen • Approve a timesheet submitted by an employee • Edit a timesheet for an employee • Cancel a timesheet that is not needed • Reopen a timesheet that has been canceled • Reject a timesheet with errors back to an employee • Recall a timesheet you’ve approved • Timesheets approved by another approver or that have been paid cannot be recalled

  36. Departmental Approver • DESIGNATION OF DEPARTMANTAL APPROVAL letter is required to be signed by Department Head giving authority for this role. (Only if you are notthe Department Head) • The Departmental Approver is the “official” signature. • Once your department is on Time Traq you can not go back to HPPR’s.

  37. Departmental Approver • Ensure employees/managers submit/approve timesheets in a timely manner • Submit Adloc to payroll to be processed. • AN ADLOC APPROVER CAN NOT ALLOW ONE TIMESHEET OR ADLOC TO HOLD UP PAYROLL
