How to disable Manual Time Card

  • October 2, 2023

We would like to disable the manual time card option for employees as we would like to be able to always see the clock in and clock out times. Is there a way to shut off this setting, while still allowing employees to edit their times on the time sheet tab?

I can help you with disabling manual time cards for your employees in QuickBooks Workforce, @kellyfmt.

 

You can go to the Company Settings to disable your employees' option to manage their own timesheets. 

 

Here's how:

 

  1. From your QuickBooks Time account, go to the Company Settings, select Time Options and click on Time Entry.
  2. Uncheck Allow team members to manage their own timesheets, and Allow team members to track time on the mobile app, then Save.
  3. Go to My Team and choose a team member.
  4. Click the Permissions tab.
  5. Select Mobile time entry, and then Save.If you want them to have access to manage their timesheets from any platform, select Manage my timesheets, then Save.
  6. To grant mobile time entry access, repeat the process for each team member you wish to disable it for.

 

Refer to this article for more information about turning on and off your settings and permissions in your QuickBooks Workforce: Change QuickBooks Workforce (formerly QuickBooks Time mobile app) settings and permissions. 

 

Check out the following article for further guidance with setting up and managing custom fields, and assigning or restricting field items: Set up and manage custom fields in QuickBooks Time.

The "allow team members to manage their own timesheets" option is already unchecked. When I go into the permissions tab, the "Mobile Time Entry" box is greyed out. Thanks for trying to help. Is there another work around?

I chatted with Quickbooks and here is the solution: To turn off the Manual Time Card you will go to "Feature Add-Ons" > "Time Card Selector" > Uncheck the box next to Manual Time Card > Close out of that window > Refresh
