How to review and dispute your time punches (for employees)
When reviewing your timesheets, verify and attest your final working hours directly within the 7shifts mobile app. If you identify any time punches that aren't as expected, flag them with your manager and request a secondary review.
Things to know
- Employee approval of time punches is only available on the mobile app.
- You can dispute a punch at any time, including after your manager closes the pay period.
- Disputing a punch resets your manager's approval on that punch, which means they'll need to re-approve it before running payroll.
Tip: Dispute any incorrect punches as soon as you spot them, before your manager closes the pay period. This makes it easier for your manager to correct the punch before payroll runs.
