Accessing TIME

You can log into the TIME system using either a personal computer or a kiosk.

• Via computer: Access TIME via the OneStart portal. TIME is found in the Administrative Systems section under the Services tab.
  
  
• Via kiosk: Departments not using PCs will use kiosks (computers dedicated to the TIME system) equipped with card readers and touch-screens. Swipe your ID card at the login screen. If you have card problems, click the button on the screen and log in with your username and password.

Clocking in and out

To clock into TIME:

1. In the Clock section of your timesheet, select the appropriate assignment from the drop-down menu, if applicable (you may have only one assignment available), and then click one of the clock action buttons.
   
   Note: All clock actions (other than leaving or returning from breaks) are rounded to the nearest tenth of an hour.
   
   
2. Once you are clocked in or out, close the browser window.

Fixing mistakes

To make changes to an incorrect block of time:

1. If you've forgotten to clock in, please contact your supervisor immediately to set the appropriate clock-in time for you.
   
   
2. If you clock in when you've already started working, you will need your supervisor to correct your timesheet. Wait until you clock out so that your supervisor can see your full timeblock (clock in and clock out) for editing.

Adding time asynchronously

1. Click Edit.
   
   
2. In the "Hour Details" section of the appropriate day, click add.
   
   
3. From the drop-down lists, select an assignment and an earn code. You will not be able to enter overtime, which the TIME system will calculate automatically; see your supervisor or payroll processor if you have questions.
   
   
4. Type the beginning and ending times or hours as appropriate. For most earn codes representing time worked, you will enter beginning and ending times. For most earn codes representing time off, you will enter hours.
   
   
5. When you have added all the timeblocks you want, at the bottom of the timesheet, click save.

To delete a block of time, click delete to the right of that block and click save at the bottom of the timesheet.

Note: The system will not accept 0:00 as a valid time; if you add a line in error, fill in a valid time segment and then delete it.

If you do not make any changes after clicking edit, click close at the bottom of the page; if you do not end the editing process, your supervisor or payroll processor may not be able to edit your timesheet.

You cannot make changes to your timesheet after the pay period ends (at midnight Saturday night); if you forget to update it, your supervisor must enter your time worked.
