Timesheet Approvals
On the Timesheet Approvals page, any user who is part of a time entry approval group can review submitted timesheets for errors, missing information, or unauthorized time entries, and then approve or reject them.
When an employee submits a timesheet for approval, approvers receive an email notification.
To view timesheets that are pending approval or approved
Go to Manager Self Service > Timesheet Approvals.
The Timesheet Approvals page opens.
If the displayed week is not the one that you want, to choose a different week, use the left () and right () arrows.
In Employee Time Unit, specify a value.
mySparkrock displays details for the respective employee time unit.

Issues must be corrected on these pages, and then the timesheet must be submitted for approval again.
Alternate approvers
When an alternate is approving timesheets, to see the units, the alternate must be set up in the same approval group as the original approver.
