Adding comments to Timesheets in WX

When configured, you can add comments to time entries on Timesheets before the Timesheet is submitted for approval.

  • Comments can be added to specific days (Day Comments) and to an overall Timesheet period (Summary Comments).
  • You can continue to edit the comments until you submit the Timesheet.
  • If your manager adds a further comment and rejects a Timesheet, the Timesheet returns to your Not Submitted tab and you can reopen it for further editing.

To add a comment to a Timesheet:

In the menu, select the Timesheets process:
