How working time recording works

The steps from a day proposal to confirmation, supervisor approval and payroll data.

Updated

A workday is handled in four steps: Kelomo proposes → you confirm → your supervisor approves → the day is included in payroll data. Your task is to review and confirm your own days.

1. Kelomo proposes the day

Kelomo builds a proposal for the day from the sources used in your organisation: the working time model, the published shift, the punches and the calendar. The proposal shows what confirmation will record. You can edit it before confirming.

2. You check and confirm

Before confirmation, the day is a draft where you can edit entries, breaks and allocations. By confirming it, you tell your employer that the day’s details are correct. See Confirm your workday.

Noticed a mistake after confirming? You can reopen your own day for editing as long as your supervisor has not approved it.

3. Your supervisor approves

A confirmed day moves to your supervisor’s Approvals queue. Your supervisor approves it or returns it to you for correction with a reason.

4. An approved day moves on to payroll

Only approved days are included in payroll data. Confirm your days by the deadline set by your employer.

What you can rely on

  • Approved data does not change unnoticed. Corrections after approval go through the supervisor, and every correction stays visible. See Correct an already confirmed day.
  • The calculation does not change retroactively. Once a day is confirmed, later changes to the working time model or the shift plan do not change its calculation.

If something goes wrong

The proposal looks wrong. Correct the day before confirming – a draft can be edited freely. See Edit the day’s entries and breaks.

My supervisor returned my day. You see the reason on the home page and in the week view. Correct the day and confirm it again.
