Time Record Validations
Track the status of employee time record validations — see which employees have validated their clockings and which are still pending.
/panel/employee-timesheet-validations lists all validation requests that have been sent to employees, showing whether each one is pending or already completed. It is accessible from the top menu of the Time Log page.
How validations are generated
Validation requests are created automatically by MyChronos when an employee's time recording policy has record validation enabled. The frequency determines which period each request covers:
- Daily — Employees are asked to validate the previous day. With daily frequency, a request is only generated for days on which the employee had scheduled working hours according to their schedule, or days on which they actually clocked in.
- Weekly — Employees are asked to validate the previous week.
- Monthly — Employees are asked to validate the previous month.
The validation list
Each row in the list shows:
- Employee — Who the validation request was sent to.
- Dates to validate — The period covered by this request.
- Status — Whether the validation is pending or has been completed by the employee.
- Validation date — If completed, the date on which the employee submitted their validation.
Click on any row to open the detail view and see exactly which clockings the employee reviewed and validated in that request.
Unvalidating a completed validation
If a validation has already been completed, a button appears on that row to mark it as unvalidated. This resets the status to pending, allowing the employee to go back into the validation from the mobile app and correct anything they may have missed or got wrong the first time.
Creating a manual validation request
The Create record validation button at the top right lets you manually request a validation from an employee for a specific set of dates. This is outside the normal automatic flow and would not typically be needed in day-to-day use.
Accessing validations from the mobile app
Employees complete their validations from the Validations tab at the bottom of the MyChronos mobile app. See Time Record Validations in the mobile app documentation for details.
