When a record is flagged as a conflict
After the app syncs, the office sees a record as conflicted when:
| Rule | When it happens |
|---|---|
| Timesheet job duration exceeded | A timesheet job is ended in the app and its length is over the allowed timesheet duration. |
| Scheduled job duration exceeded | A scheduled job is ended in the app and its length is over the allowed timesheet duration. |
| Scheduled job still active | A scheduled job stays running past the allowed timesheet duration. |
| Timesheet job still active | A timesheet job stays running past the allowed timesheet duration. |
| Shift end time modified | A shift's end time is changed in the app. |
| Overlapping records | The system creates a record that overlaps another of the same type. |
The allowed duration is set by your office in Settings›Mobile App.
Common questions
How do I make Timesheet the first screen I see?
Tap the Settings icon, tap the pencil next to Default Screen and select Timesheet. Your office must allow employees to change their default screen.
Can I change a timesheet after my supervisor approves it?
