      Timesheets go through several stages during a payroll period.
      Not Started - At the beginning of each pay period until it is opened by the employee.
      In Progress (purple) - When the employee opens the timesheet to record work hours and has not yet submitted it for approval. Entries must be "saved" while adding them and "submit" should not be done until the entire pay period is complete.
      Pending (light blue) - Timesheet has been submitted to the supervisor and is pending for their approval. The employee can no longer enter or update hours unless the supervisor returns it.
      Returned for Correction (yellow) - The employee can make adjustments and resubmit
      Approved (green) - The supervisor has approved the timesheet.
      Completed (green) - Payroll has run and pulled in the timesheet hours for processing. No changes can be made to the timesheet at this point.

      Leave entered on a time sheet is not updated in your leave balance area until that time period has been processed by payroll. The payroll processing schedule is available on the Payroll webpage.
      Earned comp time will not show in the leave balance until the full work week where it was earned has run through the payroll process.
      Leave balances can be found at the top of the home page of the Employee Dashboard and detailed leave information using the supplied link.

      Approval of work and leave hours is typically done twice per month, once around the 16th (for the 1st-15th of the month) and once around the 1st of the month (for the 16th-the end of the previous month). The actual approval deadlines for timesheets are listed on the payroll webpage for hourly (TH) and student (SD). The deadlines for approving leave reports can be found on the HR webpage. Due to special events, including holidays, student timesheet dates may not always end on the 15th of the month, refer to the payroll calendar for modifications to typical dates. While faculty/staff are paid the 1st and the 16th of each month, student check dates will vary, but are typically paid around the 10th and 24th of each month.
