Validation Options

Time allows you, as the admin, to specify how the application validates certain scenarios. There are up to three options that you may choose from.

  • Validation Failed (Notes might be required): Time will not allow the user to submit the timesheet until this error is resolved or a note is provided.
  • Validation Warning: Time will warn the user that there is a potential error but will still allow the user to submit the timesheet. 
  • Ignore: Time will ignore this scenario.
