Getting Started with Clockwise

Welcome to Clockwise! This guide walks you through your first week so you can get up and running quickly.

1. Complete Your Profile

Go to your Profile (click your name in the top-right corner) to verify your name, email, and notification preferences. If anything looks wrong, ask your admin to update it.

2. Check Your Assigned Charge Codes

Your admin assigns charge codes to you — these are the projects, contracts, or leave categories you can log time against. You can see your assigned codes on your Profile page under "Assigned Charge Codes". If a code you need is missing, contact your admin.

3. Fill Out Your First Timesheet

Navigate to the Dashboard. You'll see your current pay period's timesheet. Click Add Charge Code to pick a project and start entering hours for each day. See Filling Out Your Timesheet for a full walkthrough.

4. Submit at the End of Your Pay Period

When your timesheet is complete, click the Submit button. This locks the timesheet and sends it to your designated approver. You'll be notified once it's approved or if it's sent back for corrections.

5. Request Time Off

Use the Time Off page to submit leave requests. You can request full days or partial hours, and choose a leave type if your company tracks leave balances. See Requesting Time Off for details.

6. Stay in the Loop

Check your Dashboard for a summary of your recent timesheets, pending approvals (if you're an approver), and upcoming company holidays. The Team Calendar shows who on your team is out each day.
