REVIEWING THE TIMECARD

If you have the ability to sign into Paycor and view your timecard, these functions are available: Note: To see a more detailed view of a day’s punches, under the date section on the time card, click the 'three vertical dots' symbol, then click View Daily Audit. This opens the Timecard Daily Audit view, which shows Active and Deleted punches.
1. The Period Summary section at the top of the Timecard does not update until the Timecard saves, because processing needs to occur to make sure all earnings are accurate.
2. Depending on your policies assigned, you can have certain Exceptions flags on your timecard to alert your Manager. Any open exceptions are indicated with a yellow icon if the exception has been set up as non-critical, or a red icon if it is critical. The critical exception also highlights that day’s bar in red.
3. Your manager can choose to Acknowledge your exceptions, which change the yellow icon to gray if all exceptions on one day are acknowledged. There is message beneath the exception to indicate that it is acknowledged.
Note: A Deduction icon appears if the employee uses a meal policy that is configured to deduct hours. The Supervisor can override the deduction by editing that column.

Note: this does not work when editing punches, as hours might already exist.

  • When adding in punches, the system has a quick method for input. It can support all formats including shorthand. For example, the system can handle 7p, 7pm, 19:00, and 7:00 PM.
