How do I approve or reject a timesheet from the email?

When an associate submits time, you get an email titled "[Associate] Has Submitted Their Timesheet For Approval".

1. Open the email and click Approve Timesheet or Reject. The review page opens and signs you in automatically.
2. Check the hours, and any expenses billed to you.
3. Click Approve timesheet, or add a note and click Reject. A note is required to reject.

If the email button does not open

Check spam. Some company email systems block the button. Sign in at app.backofficenow.com, open Home, and use Needs your approval. Click Review on a row, or Approve all when you have approve rights. The same Approve all button is on Timesheets.

Good to know

• Please approve by Tuesday at noon Eastern. Approving on Monday is fine.
• Hours on the timesheet use the timesheet time zone. That is Eastern unless the worksite uses another zone. They do not follow the clock on your phone.
• Exempt or salaried workers still need a weekly approval unless salary auto approve is on. See How do I accept salary auto approve?
• When you approve, the associate is notified. When you reject, the week goes back to the associate with your note.
• The link in the email works for 8 days. If you get a newer email for the same week, use that one.
• For 1099 contractors, the buttons read Accept invoice and Decline.
