Entering extra time in Skyward True Time
instead of paper timesheets
True Time allows you to quickly enter extra time. This feature can be used as a time clock or to enter hours for specific time off codes that were worked earlier in the week.
Instead of using True Time as a time clock, you will be entering time that you formerly entered on time sheets. The kinds of times are: Extra Time, Overtime, Effective Ed, Special Projects, any other stipends not set up in HR, and hourly employees (Temp).
Each week (from Monday through Friday) you must submit your “timesheet” from the previous weekfor approval. Your supervisor will approve your time and then it will be exported to Payroll.
