Use the app to add daily hours, select the correct time type, save drafts, and submit a completed week for your building admin or manager to review. Approved weeks are locked for payroll; denied weeks return to you as editable so you can fix and resubmit.\nIf you do not see Time Cards in the app, reach out to your property team to confirm your profile is enabled to submit time cards.\n\nAdd Hours\n\nEdit Hours\n\nRespond to Denied Hours\n\nAdd Hours\nQuickly enter daily hours, save drafts as you work, and submit the completed week so your manager can review and process it for payroll.\nSteps\n\nOpen the left side navigation window in your mobile app and click My Labor Hours.\n\nClick on the Time Cards tab.\n\nSelect the week you want to complete.\n\nFor each day, tap Add Time and enter start/stop times or total hours, choose the correct time type (for example Standard, Overtime, Vacation), and add a brief note if prompted.\n\nSave each day’s entry as you work. You can save a draft and return later.\n\nWhen the week is complete, tap Submit Time Card. After submission the week is locked until an approver acts on it.\n\nNotes:\n• Entries respect your site’s configured increment (typically 15 minutes) and daily maximum.\n• Some time types require a note; the app prompts you when that is the case.\nEdit Hours\nEdit draft weeks or make manual corrections in the app when you need to update entries.\n\nOpen the left side navigation window in your mobile app and click My Labor Hours.\n\nClick on the Time Cards tab.\n\nTap the day or the specific entry you want to change.\n\nEdit the start and stop times or total hours, change the time type if needed, and add a short note explaining the change.\n\nSave the entry.
