Manually add a Timesheet

Updated over 2 weeks ago

In Chime, you can manually add a timesheet if someone has forgotten to sign in and out, or if you need to create one for payroll purposes. This ensures records stay accurate and complete, even when manual adjustments are required.


Open up Detailed Approval

  1. Select the ChimeTime tile.

  2. Select the Detail Approvals tab.

  3. On the left-hand side, view the list of individuals who already have a timesheet for the week.

    Search for individual

    • Search for their name using the search bar, or

    • Scroll to the bottom where they will appear greyed out (indicating no timesheet).

    Add new Timesheet

    • Select + Timesheet Button

    • A new blank timesheet template will be created.

    Add a Site

    • Under the individual’s profile, click the Site button.

    • Choose a site from the pick list.

  4. Press Add.

    Fill in hours & approve

  5. A timesheet for that site will appear, with all hours set to 0 hours 0 minutes.

  6. Enter the required hours for each day.

  7. Approve the timesheet following the usual approval process.


Use Case

This function is predominantly used by Super User Payroll staff or admins who are responsible for managing and approving timesheets.


💡 Tips

  • Double-check which site you are adding hours to, especially if the individual works across multiple projects.

  • Use the comments function to note why the timesheet was added manually for transparency.

  • Avoid duplicate entries — always confirm the individual doesn’t already have a timesheet for that site/week.
