Timesheet Reviewer Assignment is now live in Everest

New Feature
Announcement

We’re introducing a new update to the Timesheet Review flow in Everest to make approvals more structured and accountable.

What’s changing?

From now onwards, every employee added to a job will have a dedicated Timesheet Reviewer assigned to them.

Only the assigned reviewer will be able to:

  • Review submitted timesheets
  • Approve or Unapprove logged hours
  • Manage review actions for that employee within the job

This change helps us:

  • Create clearer ownership during approvals
  • Reduce confusion in review responsibilities
  • Improve accountability and review accuracy
  • Streamline the timesheet approval process

Important Notes

  • Reviewer assignment will happen at the job team level
  • Users who are not assigned as reviewer for a particular employee will no longer be able to review their timesheets
  • Existing permissions remain unchanged outside the review flow

Why are we doing this?

As projects and teams scale, having a dedicated reviewer system ensures:

  • Better review discipline
  • Faster approval cycles
  • Cleaner reporting and accountability tracking
