Click Save to save the entry without submitting it. You can come back and edit it anytime.
You can add multiple time blocks to a single day if you worked on different things. Click Add Time Block inside the entry panel.

​
Submitting timesheets for approval

Once you’re happy with your entries, submit them to your manager. Submitting individual entries:
  • Open a day’s entry panel → click Submit
Submitting in bulk:
  • Check the boxes next to multiple draft entries in the calendar
  • Click Submit Selected in the sticky action bar at the top
  • Or click Submit All to submit every open draft at once

Entry statuses

​
Withdrawing a submission

If you submitted too early and need to make changes:
  1. Click the day in the calendar
  2. In the entry panel, open the More options (⋮) menu and click Withdraw Entry
The entry returns to Draft status and you can edit it.

​
Viewing calendar vs. timeline

Use the toggle at the top of the page to switch between:
  • Calendar view — month grid with colour-coded status badges per day
  • Timeline view — a horizontal bar chart of your hours per day

​
Understanding the stats

The three cards at the top show:
  • Total Worked — hours you’ve logged this month
  • Scheduled — hours you were expected to work (based on your assigned schedule)
  • Overtime — hours above your scheduled total
If you’re on a Flexible schedule, the Scheduled and Overtime cards won’t appear since there’s no fixed target.

​
Dealing with duplicate entries

If Shiftsheet detects that you may have duplicate entries for the same day, a warning panel appears at the top of the page. Review and delete any duplicates before submitting.
