4. Navigate to Timekeeping TAB. Select “Pay Period Close“. The "Show" should display "All Home with Hours" Or ‘My Direct Reports’ and the Time Period should display "Previous Pay Period." Changes can be made to these options via the drop down, if necessary.

5. Review your employees' ‘Combined Hours’ column to make sure each employee has a total of 80 hours listed. Note: If they have less than 80 hours, correct the missing

hours/amounts on their schedule. See ‘Kronos Training Museum’ for select instructions for correcting if the ‘Combined Hours’ for an employee does not equal 80.0.

Group Edit Results

7. To verify that all employee timecards have been approved, navigate to the ‘General’ tab, select ‘Group Edit Results’. The group approval will be listed. On the right side of the screen, it will display the ‘status’ of the group approval. Status should display either ‘processing’ or ‘completed’. Once the action has completed processing, the status will display COMPLETED.

8. Navigate to ‘Timekeeping’ TAB to see your approval results.

Manager Approval – 9. Select Timekeeping Tab. Select ‘Pay Period Close’. The ‘Manager Approval’ column

should now display a ‘1’ for each employee, indicating that each employee’s timecard has been approved.

Note: If there are any employees that do not display a ‘1’, highlight and repeat the above steps for timecard approval. Note: If the Manager approval column does not show ‘1’, you will need to select the ‘Refresh’ button to the right of the Time Period. This will refresh the data.

10. Timecards have now been approved for previous pay period.

**Note: If you attempt to approve prior to Monday, some of the above directions may change. Contact the Kronos Administrator, twermter@woodmark.com or 540-308-3388 for assistance.
