An entry may be submitted from either the Grid or from the Editor View; however, multiple entries may be simultaneously submitted from the Grid View.
Submitting an entry is an indication that the entry is complete and you are ready for the billing department to finalize and bill that entry. If an entry that has been submitted needs changes, then you may recall the entry for further editing.
Notes may be added during the Submit process. These notes will appear on the entry and can be useful in case there is an Approver assigned or why an entry was recalled.
Submitting a Single Entry from the Editor
- Make sure all required fields on the entry have been supplied.
- Click the Submit Entry button, which is the green arrow button shown on the top-left side of the form:

- Right-click in the blue area to the left of the row and select Submit Entries from the drop-down menu.
When you submit multiple entries, a summary screen will appear giving a status of all the entries. If any entries still have Required or Error Tasks, are Read-Only, etc., you will be notified. You can also add a Note one this screen that will apply to ALL entries selected.
To Recall a Submitted Entry
Once you have submitted an entry, it may be recalled for further editing as long as it has not been posted for billing.
To recall an entry:
- Find the entry in the Grid view.
- Right-click the entry and select Recall from the drop-down menu.
- This places the entry back to Draft status where it can be edited. At this point the entry will have to go through the submission process again to be billed. See the Time Entry Workflow for details.
