Timesheet Review Just Got More Helpful

We’ve added a new Reason field to Timesheet Review to make feedback on logged hours clearer and more useful.

What's New?

After reviewing an employee’s hours, reviewers can now add a reason along with their decision.

This is especially important when hours are not approved.

Instead of simply seeing that some hours were rejected or adjusted, employees can now understand why the change was made and what they can improve.

Better Feedback, Better Understanding

For example:

2 hours not approved — Work was logged against the wrong milestone. Please update the entry with the correct milestone.

Or:

1 hour not approved — The activity doesn't qualify as billable work. Please log this under the appropriate Free job.

This gives employees a clear explanation of what went wrong instead of leaving them guessing.

Why This Matters

Timesheet review isn't just about approving hours — it's also an opportunity to help employees improve their day-to-day logging.

Going forward, reviewers should add a clear reason whenever hours are unapproved or adjusted, so employees have the context they need to correct their entries and avoid the same issue in the future.

Review the hours. Explain the why. Help the team get better.
