Frequently Asked Questions
In addition to the above, we have also provided some answers to the most frequent questions asked.
Why should I mark my Umbrella, LTD or Self-employed worker timesheets?
There are a number of reasons as to why you may need or should mark timesheets for these worker types as exported:
Updated Timesheet Status - The timesheet status will update from “Approved” to “Exported” which will remove those timesheets from the Timesheets > Approved list. This will help ensure that only current approved timesheets appear within that screen.
Exported date timestamp - Every timesheet exported is timestamped with the date and time the export routine was carried out. This can be useful for reporting purposes.
Output files - Depending on your configuration, InTime may produce an output file for all exported timesheets that you may need to send on to a third party.
