Require Comments for Hours Entered on Timesheets

You can require employees to enter comments for all the hours that they enter on their timesheets.

If you have multiple companies, you must complete these steps for each company.

To require comments for hours that employees enter on timesheets in My Stuff:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select Settings > Time > Options.
  2. On the Options form, set the Require Comments option to Yes.
  3. Click Save.
Employees must now enter a comment in the Comment field that displays in the day/date field drop-down box in the timesheet grid before they can save a timesheet.

You can also:

  • Enter standardized comments on the Global Comments form in Time Settings. This allows employees to select from a list of standard comments when they enter a comment in the Comment field in the day/date field drop-down box on a timesheet.
  • Use the Require Comments for Hours settings on the Accounting tab in the Projects hub to override the company-wide Require Comments setting in Time Settings on a project-by-project basis.
  • Require employees to enter a revision explanation when they revise timesheets.
